🔰 Trading Mistakes I Made (So You Don’t Have To) 🔰
Sharing this from my own journey—these were the mistakes that cost me early on:
1️⃣ No Real Plan – I used to jump into trades just because something felt right. That never ended well. Now, I don’t touch a trade unless I’ve got a solid setup.
2️⃣ No Stop-Loss – I’d hold onto losers, hoping they’d magically reverse. Spoiler: they rarely did. These days, I’d rather take a small loss than blow up my account.
3️⃣ Overtrading & Leverage – I got greedy, chased every move, and over-leveraged like crazy. Lesson learned: sometimes the best trade is no trade.
4️⃣ FOMO Entries – Green candles gave me tunnel vision. I’d jump in too late and get wrecked. Now, I wait for clean, confirmed entries.
5️⃣ Lack of Patience – I was chasing quick profits instead of playing the long game. Truth is, steady growth beats fast gains every time.
🎯 What Changed for Me:
I started focusing on risk management, learning market structure, and most importantly—sticking to my plan.
It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being disciplined.
Trade smart. Stay focused. Capital preservation is key. 💹
