#TradingMistakes101

Trading mistakes are common, especially among beginners, and can lead to significant losses. One major mistake is emotional trading—letting fear or greed drive decisions instead of logic. Another is lack of a clear strategy or trading without proper research. Many traders chase the market, buying at highs or panic selling at lows. Overtrading—making too many trades without purpose—can also drain your capital through fees and bad entries. Ignoring risk management, such as not using stop-loss orders or investing too much in one trade, is dangerous. Beginners often follow hype or social media tips without verification. To avoid these mistakes, always learn the basics, develop a plan, manage risk wisely, and stay patient and disciplined in every trade.
