#TradingStrategyMistakes That Kill Your Gains ๐
Even with a solid strategy, small mistakes can wreck your results. Here are 5 common strategy pitfalls every trader should avoid:
โ 1. No Backtesting
If you havenโt tested your strategy over historical data โ youโre trading blind.
โ 2. Over-Optimization
Tweaking your strategy too much = curve fitting. Real markets arenโt perfect.
โ 3. Ignoring Risk/Reward
A 70% win rate means nothing if your losses are 2x your wins. Always calculate RR.
โ 4. Trading Every Signal
Not every signal is worth taking โ learn to filter using confluence and volume.
โ 5. Abandoning Strategy Mid-Trade
Emotions โ exit strategy. Follow your rules or youโre just gambling.
