🚫 Top 7 Crypto Trading Mistakes (I’ve Made Most of These)
Whether you're new or experienced, crypto trading will test your discipline. Here are the most common mistakes that wipe out accounts—or sanity.👇
🔻 1. FOMO Buying
> You see a green candle, and you chase it.
Result? You’re someone else’s exit liquidity. Always wait for confirmation or a retest.
🔻 2. No Risk Management
> "I'll just go 100% in, it looks good."
Without a stop-loss or position sizing, you're gambling—not trading.
🔻 3. Overtrading
> More trades ≠ more profit.
Every trade costs mental capital, not just fees. Quality > quantity.
🔻 4. Ignoring the Trend
> Fighting the trend is like swimming upstream.
You might win occasionally, but odds are stacked against you.
🔻 5. Blindly Following Influencers
> “This coin is the next 100x!”
If someone’s shouting targets without a clear plan or invalidation level—they’re probably selling into your buy.
🔻 6. Emotional Decisions
> Fear, greed, revenge trades…
Reacting instead of executing a plan? That’s how accounts bleed.
🔻 7. Not Taking Profit
> “It’s going to the moon, right?”
No exit strategy = missed gains. Paper profits aren’t real.
✅ Bonus Advice:
Have a plan for entry, exit, and invalidation before you click buy. If you’re guessing—stop and reassess.
📊 Crypto trading is a skill. Mistakes are part of the process—but only if you learn from them.
