5 Common Trading Mistakes You MUST Avoid

• Overtrading: only take A‑setups that match your plan.
• Revenge trades: forced cooldown after any loss >1R.
• Moving stops: never widen risk; only trail in profit.
• Ignoring position sizing: size from stop distance, not conviction.
• Chasing breakouts late: wait for retests or clear momentum rules.

Summary: Protect R first. Removing five common errors typically flips results faster than finding a new strategy.
