#TradingStrategyMistakes Even the best traders slip up. Here are common mistakes that can ruin your strategy — and how to avoid them:
1️⃣ No Clear Plan
Jumping into trades without a defined entry, exit, and risk plan = gambling, not trading.
2️⃣ Overtrading
Too many trades, too fast = more fees, more mistakes, less clarity.
3️⃣ Ignoring Risk Management
Not using stop-losses or risking too much capital on one trade is a fast track to losses.
4️⃣ Strategy Hopping
Switching systems every time one loses = never giving a strategy time to prove itself.
5️⃣ Revenge Trading
Trying to make back losses emotionally leads to even bigger drawdowns.
6️⃣ Lack of Journaling
If you're not tracking your trades, you're not learning from them.
✅ Fix it:
Stick to your rules, manage your risk, review your trades, and don’t trade based on FOMO or emotions.
