đ How You Emotionally Sabotage Yourself in the Future (Even If You Already Know the Strategy)
Sometimes itâs not that you donât know how to set a stop loss.
Nor that you donât understand what leverage, cross margin, or isolated margin is.
Sometimes the real danger is that you betray yourself.
Because you know you said: âIâll close at -10%, max,â
but when the price drops, you wait.
You tell yourself: âSurely it will bounce back.â
And it doesnât bounce back.
You told yourself it was a trade with a plan, but you entered on impulse.
You told yourself you would follow your strategy, but you traded from fear.
From anger. From the desire to recover what you lost yesterday.
And thatâs what hurts the most:
Not losing because you didnât knowâŠ
But losing because you couldnât hold yourself together.
For not knowing how to breathe when the trade goes against you.
For not recognizing that you are not emotionally well to trade.
For letting yourself be carried away by anxiety, euphoria, pride.
The market doesnât forgive that.
And you donât easily forgive yourself either.
But Iâll tell you something: this can also be trained.
The emotional part can also be learned.
Just as you learned to use stop loss or to read candlesticks,
you can also learn to maintain your internal state.
Because trading is not just about knowing charts.
Itâs about knowing yourself.
đïžâđšïž If this has ever happened to you, you are not alone.
I have also sabotaged myself while trading.
But whatâs important is not that it never happens to you.
Itâs that you learn to look at yourself without judgment and continue fine-tuning your emotional strategy.
Comment if you ever knew what you had to do⊠but didnât do it.
