1. Over‑leveraging ⚠️
You’re using 1:200+ like it’s free money.
✅ Keep risk ≤1% per trade. Leverage is a tool, not a ladder to jump off
2. No Stop‑Loss 🚫🛑
Hoping the market “comes back.”
✅ Place SL before entry. If hit, accept + move on.
3. Revenge Trading 😤
You double down after a loss.
✅ Pause 15–30 min, journal the mistake, size smaller next trade.
4. Strategy Hopping 🐇
New setup every week.
✅ Pick one edge, backtest 100 trades, stick to rules 30 days.
5. Wrong Risk‑Reward ⚖️
Risking 30 pips to chase 10.
✅ Aim for R:R ≥ 1:2 (or better). Skip junk setups.
6. FOMO/Chasing 🚀
Entering late candles because it “looks strong.”
✅ Set alerts, wait for pullbacks or your zone—no signal, no trade.
7. Overtrading 🔁
10+ trades daily = noise.
✅ Cap to 1–3 A+ setups/day. Quality > quantity.
8. Ignoring Sessions & News 🕒📰
Trading dead hours or during high‑impact news blindly.
✅ Focus on London/NY overlap; check the calendar before entries.
9. No Journal = No Growth 📝
You can’t fix what you don’t track.
✅ Log pair, setup, entry/SL/TP, emotions, screenshot. Review weekly.
10. Psychology > Technicals 🧠
Fear, greed, impatience running the show.
✅ Pre‑trade checklist, daily routine, and strict risk rules.
💡 Simple Daily Plan
Scan top 3 pairs you understand best ✅
Mark HTF trend & key zones ✅
Wait for 1 clean trigger (break‑retest or reversal pattern) ✅
Risk 0.5–1% with 1:2+ target ✅
Journal + walk away ✅
