#RiskRewardRatio Why do most traders keep making the same mistakes — even after years in Crypto
Let's be realistic...
You don't just blow up your portfolio once.
You do it multiple times, usually with the same coins, in the same way — until you're forced to change.
And yes, this still happens whether you're trading $BTC, $ETH, or even high-potential plays like $ADA.
So why do most traders keep screwing up?
Here’s the hard truth:
🔥 7 Reasons Why Traders Stay Stuck:
1️⃣ They treat crypto like a casino.
If your "strategy" is hope, hype, and Twitter calls — it’s gambling, not trading.
2️⃣ They never set their exit.
They buy Ethereum at $3,200… and then? They go up and down without a plan.
3️⃣ They panic with red candles.
Emotions dominate decisions. Logic disappears. You sell low and buy high.
4️⃣ They refuse to take profits of 20-30%.
“Let it ride!” sounds good — until the whole market crashes overnight.
5️⃣ They keep trading out of revenge.
A bad trade leads to three more. You’re trying to recover what you lost emotionally, not strategically.
6️⃣ They ignore macroeconomic news.
When you’re surprised that BTC plummeted because of Fed policy or geopolitics — that’s on you.
7️⃣ They avoid accountability.
They blame influencers. They blame market makers. But they never blame the real problem: you didn’t follow your own rules.
💡 Simple Tips to Break the Cycle:
✅ Treat every trade like a business decision.
Have a plan. Set risks. Know your targets.
✅ Don't go all in. Ever.
Position sizes save portfolios.
✅ Use alerts. Automate exits.
Remove emotion from the equation.
✅ Have a “profit-locking” rule.
Secure a portion at 20-30%, let the rest ride. You’ll feel better sleeping at night
