# Trading Psychology Matters

95% of traders lose money. The difference between winners and losers? **Mindset and discipline.**

## The Enemy Within

Common psychological traps:
- **Fear of Missing Out (FOMO)**: Chasing trades
- **Revenge Trading**: Trying to recover losses
- **Overconfidence**: Ignoring risk management
- **Analysis Paralysis**: Never pulling the trigger

## Building Mental Resilience

### 1. Accept Losses as Part of the Game

No strategy wins 100% of the time. Professional traders:
- Expect losses
- Keep losses small
- Let winners run

### 2. Follow Your Trading Plan

Write down your rules:
- Entry criteria
- Exit criteria (both profit and loss)
- Position sizing formula
- Maximum daily loss limit

**Stick to the plan, no exceptions.**

### 3. Journal Your Trades

Track:
- Why you entered
- Emotions during the trade
- What you learned
- Mistakes made
