One of the most frustrating psychological traps in trading is the "fear vs. greed paradox." When we’re in a losing trade, hope keeps us clinging to it—waiting for a turnaround that may never come. Yet, when we finally hit profits, we rush to close the position for a small gain, fearing the market might reverse.
🔹 Why does this happen?
Loss aversion—we dread taking a loss, so we stay stuck.
Profit protection—we rush to secure gains before they vanish.
Emotional bias—our decisions are driven more by feeling than logic.
🔹 How do we break free?
✅ Predefine your stop-loss & take-profit levels—set them based on logic, not emotion.
✅ Trust your analysis—if your setup was strong enough for entry, let it breathe.
✅ Develop discipline—profits grow when trades are optimized, not cut too soon.
The key? Master your mindset. Smart traders cut losses early and let winners run. Break the cycle, trade with confidence, and level up your strategy. 🚀📈
