Good morning,



"The market punishes not only mistakes but also emotional reactions. Recognizing trigger factors is the first step in controlling them.

Understand the emotional factors that trigger revenge trades:

Common triggers

✓ Recent losses lead to disappointment or anger
✓ Ego hurt by missed opportunities
✓ Fear of missing out (FOMO)
✓ Pressure to quickly recover previous losses
✓ Overconfidence after a small victory

Why is it dangerous?

✓ Leads to impulsive decisions
✓ Ignores predefined stop points and risk limits
✓ Increases losses instead of reducing them
✓ Disrupts discipline and damages confidence

How can we prevent this?

✓ Pause after any loss
✓ Reduce size until calm
✓ Trade only with clear setups
✓ Focus on the process, not the outcome."
