Many traders lose for common reasons, especially beginners. Here are the main reasons:
1. Lack of knowledge and experience
Some enter the market without sufficient understanding of technical or fundamental analysis, and do not know how markets operate.
2. Greed and fear
Emotions play a significant role, for example:
Greed leads the trader to hold onto a trade for too long.
Fear drives them to close a trade quickly at a loss or hesitate in making a decision.
3. Lack of a trading plan
Some trade randomly without a clear plan, or without rules for risk management.
4. High leverage
It can amplify profits, but it also quickly amplifies losses, especially with sudden market movements.
5. Neglecting capital management
Such as entering a trade with all capital or risking a high percentage of it in one trade.
6. Revenge trading
After a loss, some traders try to "recover" their loss quickly, leading to further losses.
7. Overconfidence or being influenced by rumors
Either the trader trusts their opinion too much or follows a rumor without verification.
