Why 90% Traders Fail: 1 Mistake to Avoid

✅ Introduction: Set the Hook
Trading promises freedom and profits — but the reality is harsh. Studies and broker stats show that over 90% of retail traders lose money consistently.
The good news? Most fail due to just one fatal mistake — and that means it can be fixed.

❌ The #1 Mistake: Lack of Risk Management
It’s not bad strategies.
It’s not wrong indicators.
It’s not lack of signals.

👉 The real killer is poor risk management.

🔍 Let’s Break It Down:

  1. 💸 Overleveraging
    Traders risk 30–50% of their capital in a single trade hoping for big gains. One bad move = blown account.
    Proper rule: Never risk more than 1–2% of your capital per trade.
  2. 🔄 No Stop-Loss
    Many traders enter trades without stop-loss orders, letting losses grow uncontrolled.
    Result: Hope becomes strategy. Accounts go to zero.
  3. ⚖ No Position Sizing
    Buying the same lot size every time, regardless of account size or volatility? Recipe for disaster.
    Solution: Adjust lot size as per SL and capital. Use a calculator.
  4. 📉 Revenge Trading
    After one loss, trying to “get it back” emotionally — doubling size, breaking rules.
    Truth: Markets don’t care. Emotions kill accounts.

🧠 Professional Traders Think in Probabilities
You won’t win every trade — but with risk management, you’ll survive and grow.
Successful traders focus on:

Cutting losses quickly

Letting profits run

Winning the war, not every battle
