By now, youâve probably noticed something important:
đ Charts donât cause most losses â emotions do.
You can learn trends, support & resistance, moving averagesâŚ
but if you donât control how you feel, trading becomes chaos.
Today, letâs talk about the 3 emotions that silently kill traders.
đ¨ 1. Fear
Fear usually shows up after a loss.
What fear looks like:
Closing trades too early
Skipping good setups
Hesitating until price already moved
Fear whispers:
âWhat if Iâm wrong again?â
But hereâs the truth: đ Losses are part of trading, not a failure.
When you followed your plan and still lost â you didnât fail.
You just paid the cost of doing business.
đ¤ 2. Greed
Greed usually shows up after a win.
What greed looks like:
Not taking profit
Adding more size because âitâs going up anywayâ
Ignoring your stop-loss
Greed whispers:
âJust a little moreâŚâ
Greed turns winning trades into losing ones.
đ The market doesnât reward hope â it rewards discipline.
âł 3. Impatience
This one is the most dangerous.
What impatience looks like:
Taking trades with no setup
Trading lower timeframes out of boredom
Overtrading just to feel active
Impatience whispers:
âI need to trade now.â
đ Remember:
No trade is better than a bad trade.
đ§ The Big Truth (Read This Slowly)
Trading is:
20% strategy
80% psychology
Thatâs why two people using the same setup get different results.
One follows the plan.
The other follows emotions.
đą How This Connects to Your Learning

Trends

First: đ Control yourself
Then: đ Control your trades
đ Final Thought
The goal isnât to win every trade.
The goal is to:
Stay calm
Stay patient
Stay consistent
Thatâs how traders survive long enough to succeed.
