🚨 Trading Psychology 101: Control Your Mind, Not the Market
The difference between winning and losing traders? Discipline. Here’s how to fix your mental game:
1. Revenge Trading = Self-Sabotage
What happens: You lose, then rush into another trade to "make it back."
Reality: You’re gambling—not trading.
Fix: After a loss, step away. Come back only when calm.
2. FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)
What happens: You chase a pump without confirmation.
Reality: You buy the top and sell the bottom.
Fix: If your setup isn’t there, do nothing.
3. Overtrading = Burning Money
What happens: You trade just to trade.
Reality: Weak setups = more losses.
Fix: Only take A+ setups. Otherwise, wait.
4. Stop Losses Are Your Lifeline
What happens: You ignore them, hoping for a rebound.
Reality: Small losses turn into disasters.
Fix: Set stops before entering. No exceptions.
5. Changing Plans Mid-Trade
What happens: One red candle = panic.
Reality: You abandon logic and lose.
Fix: Stick to your plan like glue.
Final Lesson:
Trade less, think more.
Journal every trade (what you felt, why you entered).
Master your emotions, master your profits.
