🧠 LEARN TO TRADE EVERY DAY– COMMON ENTRY MISTAKES & HOW TO FIX THEM
❌ 1. Entering Without Confluence
Mistake:
Entering based on just one element (e.g. price touches a support), without confirmation from trend or signal.
Fix:
Use the “AND rule”:
Only enter when you have all 3:
- Clear market structure/trend
- Strong key level
- Valid price action signal (e.g. pin bar, engulfing)
❌ 2. Entering Before the Candle Closes
Mistake:
Entering too early before a candle fully forms. Often leads to false signals and early stop-outs.
Fix:
Wait for the candle to close. A confirmed signal is stronger than a forming guess.
❌ 3. Ignoring Volume & Momentum
Mistake:
Entering just because the price breaks a level — but with no real force behind it.
Fix:
Only trade breakouts or retests that come with strong volume or momentum, confirming that the market supports your entry.
❌ 4. FOMO – Trading Based on Emotion
Mistake:
Entering out of fear of missing out, without a clear signal. This is not trading – it’s emotional gambling.
Fix:
- Have a trading checklist and stick to it
- Detach from social media noise – protect your own mindset
- Know that missed trades are part of the game
🎯 Final Thought:
👍“Trading is not about prediction — it’s about managing probabilities.
If your entries are clean, your losses will be small, and your wins more meaningful.”
