⚠️ Top Trading Strategy Mistakes to Avoid

1. 🧭 No Clear Plan

Trading without a defined entry, exit, and risk management strategy.

Fix: Create a plan before entering a trade and stick to it.

2. 🎢 Overtrading

Taking too many trades out of boredom, fear of missing out (FOMO), or revenge.

Fix: Be selective — only trade high-probability setups that match your strategy.

3. 💸 Ignoring Risk Management

Trading without stop-losses or risking too much per trade.

Fix: Risk only 1–2% of capital per trade. Always use a stop-loss.

4. 📉 Letting Losses Run

Holding onto losing trades, hoping they'll turn around.

Fix: Accept small losses quickly to avoid large ones.

5. 🧠 Emotional Trading

Making decisions based on fear, greed, or excitement.

Fix: Follow a system, not your feelings. Keep a trading journal to spot emotional patterns.

6. 🔄 Strategy Hopping

Constantly switching strategies after a few losses.

Fix: Backtest and commit to a proven strategy long enough to gather meaningful results.

7. 🕒 Poor Timing

Entering too late into a trend or during low-volume times.

Fix: Learn to read charts and time your entries using technical tools (e.g., volume, support/resistance).

8. 📚 Lack of Education

Trading without understanding market structure, technical analysis, or indicators.

Fix: Invest in learning before risking real money.#TradingStrategyMistakes
