7 Common Mistakes Beginners Make in Crypto Trading 🚫
🧠 Smart traders learn from others’ mistakes — not just their own.
❌ Mistake #1: Trading Without a Plan
Jumping in blindly = fast losses.
✅ Always define your entry, exit, and stop-loss.
❌ Mistake #2: Going All-In
Never put all your capital in one trade or coin.
✅ Use portfolio allocation: 40% BTC, 30% ETH, 30% altcoins (example).
❌ Mistake #3: Ignoring Risk Management
No stop-loss = potential liquidation.
✅ Risk only 1–2% of your capital per trade.
❌ Mistake #4: FOMO Buying at the Top
Don’t buy because everyone is talking about it.
✅ Buy on dips, not during hype.
❌ Mistake #5: Not Doing Your Own Research (DYOR)
Trusting memes, TikTok tips, or influencers blindly is risky.
✅ Read whitepapers, follow project updates, check tokenomics.
❌ Mistake #6: Overtrading
More trades ≠ more profit.
✅ Trade less, but trade smarter.
❌ Mistake #7: Ignoring Emotions
Fear, greed, panic = disaster.
✅ Stick to your strategy. Use a journal to track and improve.
