#TradingStrategyMistakes

Even a well-developed trading strategy can fail due to common mistakes made by traders. Avoiding them is the key to success.

Typical mistakes:

* **Lack of a clear plan:** Trading without defined entry, exit, stop-loss, and take-profit points leads to chaos and impulsive decisions.

* **Emotional trading:** Fear of losing money or greed for quick profits often leads to deviating from the strategy, resulting in losses.

* **Ignoring risk management:** Lack of stop-losses or using excessive leverage can quickly wipe out capital.

* **Insufficient testing:** A strategy that has not undergone thorough backtesting (validation on historical data) may be ineffective in real market conditions.

* **Over-optimization:** Fitting a strategy to past data to the extent that it stops working in the future.

* **Lack of discipline:** Failing to adhere to one's own rules is the most common reason for failure.

Remember that successful trading requires both a good strategy and iron discipline.
