#TradingMistakes101 Learning to trade is usually divided into four phases. The first is unconscious incompetence, where the beginner is unaware of the real risks and the complexity of the market. Next comes conscious incompetence, where the trader acknowledges their mistakes and limitations. The third phase is conscious competence: the trader begins to apply strategies with effort and focus. Finally, unconscious competence is reached, where decisions are made with confidence and fluency, based on experience. This process requires time, discipline, and emotional management, being essential to develop solid and sustainable skills in financial markets.
