Why You Should NEVER Trade When You’re Bored 🤨
Boredom trades are some of the most expensive trades you will ever make. When you are bored, you are not looking for good setups. You are looking for stimulation. That mindset pushes you into random positions, forcing trades, chasing noise, and convincing yourself that “something is better than nothing.” It never is.
🧠 Many traders lose money because they can’t sit still. When there is no clear direction, yet the urge to “do something” takes over. You open a position with no edge, no plan, and no real reason. Later you ask yourself why you even entered and start begging to break even.
🎮 This is also why videogames are pretty popular among many successful crypto traders I know. Games give their brain the stimulation it is looking for without putting money at risk.
They keep your hands off the exchange during hours when you feel restless and tempted to click buttons. Many traders would save a lot of money by simply distracting themselves instead of forcing a trade.
If you’re bored, step away, go outside, literally do anything that keeps you from opening positions you don’t actually believe in. Trust me, this will save you money ‼️
