FOMO in trading — Fear of Missing Out — is when you chase trades out of emotion, not logic. You see a price spiking and jump in late, afraid to miss the move. This often leads to bad entries, overtrading, and losses.
It happens when you ditch your plan and follow hype. To beat it: stick to your strategy, manage risk, and trade only when the setup is right. Feel the FOMO, but don’t act on it.
