#TradingStrategyMistakes Here are some common trading mistakes to avoid in crypto, whether you’re a beginner or even experienced:
---
🚫 1. Not having a plan
Trading without a clear plan (entry, exit, risk management) is a fast way to lose money.
✅ Always know:
Why you’re entering a trade.
Where you’ll take profit.
Where you’ll cut your losses (stop-loss).
---
🚫 2. Overleveraging
Using too much leverage is one of the most common ways traders blow up their accounts. Crypto is already volatile — adding 20x or 50x leverage makes it even riskier.
✅ Use small or no leverage, especially when learning.
---
🚫 3. FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)
Chasing pumps or buying just because everyone on social media is hyping a coin usually ends badly. By the time you hear about it, it’s often already too late.
✅ Wait for proper setups and don’t trade on emotion.
---
🚫 4. Poor risk management
Putting too much of your portfolio into one trade can wipe you out if it goes wrong.
✅ Never risk more than you can afford to lose on a single trade — many traders use 1–2% of their capital per trade.
