#TradingMistakes101 One of my biggest mistakes when I first started learning to trade was overtrading. I used to think that the more often I entered the market, the greater the chance of profit. In reality? My account often suffered losses because I entered positions without clear confirmation.

The next mistake was not having a trading plan. I relied too much on my gut feeling rather than analysis. In fact, strategies like ICT teach the importance of confluence and discipline in entry models like FVG.

I also once placed too much trust in signals from others without checking myself. This is very dangerous, especially if we don't understand the market context or the time frame.

The most important lesson: be patient, wait for a valid setup, and don't be greedy. Trading is a marathon, not a sprint. Every mistake can be the best teacher as long as we are willing to learn.
