#TradingStrategyMistakes **"5 Trading Strategy Mistakes That Wipe Out Accounts"**

Even the best setups fail if you ignore these traps:

1️⃣ **Over-optimizing** – Fitting your strategy to past data creates a fragile system. Real markets aren’t backtests.

2️⃣ **Ignoring Context** – Blindly trading signals without checking market structure (trends, liquidity, news) is gambling.

3️⃣ **No Risk Rules** – No stop-loss? No position sizing? Prepare for margin calls.

4️⃣ **Revenge Trading** – Chasing losses destroys discipline. One bad trade shouldn’t trigger five more.

5️⃣ **Strategy Hopping** – Switching systems after drawdowns means you never master anything.

**The fix?** Simplify, backtest *and* forward-test, and stick to your edge.
