#TradingMistakes101
Mistakes that cost me dearly:
🔁 Excessive activity: I used to strive for instant profit — and ended up with losses. Now I trade strictly according to strategy.
❌ Lack of stop-loss: I ignored risk management and almost wiped out my account. Conclusion? Limits are mandatory.
😵 Emotions in trading: I sold in panic during downturns. Mistake. Calmness and discipline are the best allies of a trader.
Lessons I've learned:
⏳ Patience is more important than speed: Thoughtful steps yield more than impulsive trades.
🧪 Test your strategy in advance: Backtest your idea before investing real funds.
📊 Diversify: One asset is not a strategy. Spread your risks.
Recommendations for beginners:
✅ Start with a demo account — learn without risk.
✅ Mistakes are also lessons. Learn not only from successes.
✅ Don’t invest what you are not ready to lose.
