#TradingPsychology . Max Leverage, Minimal Logic
“100x? Let’s gooo!” 🙃
Result: 0.5% move = liquidation.
Fix: Use 2x–5x max until you’re consistently profitable.
2. No Stop-Loss, Just Hope
Entering without a stop-loss is not brave — it’s reckless.
Result: Full liquidation on sudden wicks.
Fix: Define SL before you enter. Every time. No excuses.
3. Revenge Trading After a Loss
Lost a trade and doubled your next position?
Result: You just fed the market more capital.
Fix: Step away. Recenter. One loss doesn’t define you.
4. Ignoring Funding Rates
“Why is my PnL shrinking?”
Result: You’re bleeding fees without realizing it.
Fix: Check funding before holding positions long-term.
5. Overtrading Every Candle
If you’re glued to the 1-minute chart… you’re gambling.
Result: Burnout, bad entries, no strategy.
Fix: Zoom out. Be picky. Trade only clean setups.
