# 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
