Most traders don’t fail from lack of signals — they fail from these avoidable mistakes 👇

1️⃣ No Stop-Loss = Instant Regret 🛑
📉 One red candle can wipe your entire position
✅ Always use a stop-loss, even on “safe” trades
🚨 Hope is not a strategy

2️⃣ Overtrading 🌀
📊 More trades ≠ more profit
😰 Emotional decisions & FOMO = disaster
✅ Focus on quality setups, not quantity

3️⃣ Going All In 🎲
💥 Putting 100% of your capital in one trade is gambling
✅ Use position sizing and diversification to stay in the game long-term
---
4️⃣ Ignoring Risk/Reward Ratio ⚖️
🔍 If you risk $100 to make $20 — the math isn’t on your side
✅ Aim for at least 1:2 or 1:3 risk-to-reward setups
---
5️⃣ No Trading Plan = No Direction 🚫
🤯 Random entries = random results
✅ Set your entry, exit, stop-loss, and target before you click "Buy"
