#AvoidTradingTraps 💹
Everything seemed fine, suddenly a trade loss! You are not alone—this is the game of traps.
🧠 Understand the market:
Institutional traders, bots, and market makers create these traps by playing against retail traders like us.
🚨 Recognize common traps:
🔸 Pump & Dump: Sudden rally? If volume and news don't match, be suspicious.
🔸 Stop-loss Hunting: If you place a stop below clear levels, you will be hunted.
🔸 Fake Breakouts: Entering a breakout without confirmation means danger.
📊 Take technical clues:
🔹 Breakout on light volume? Beware!
🔹 Long wick means rejection signal.
🔹 Use level 2 data to catch spoofing.
🛡️ Keep your plan and mindset intact:
✅ Clear entry/exit
✅ 1–2% risk
✅ Keep a journal and learn from every mistake
💡 Pro tip: If something feels “off”—take a moment. The right decision will save you.
📌 To survive in trading, learn to avoid traps.
