Ten Destructive Trading Thoughts

  1. That resistance is way too close, I really shouldn’t have taken that signal. 
  2. I should definitely trade that breakout. My method doesn’t trade breakouts,but that’s areally good-looking trade.
  3. I’m long, this is a downtrend.  What the heck was I thinking?
  4. This going to be a loser, for sure.
  5. Price has ripped so far away from me – please don’t turn into a signal.
  6. This is clearly in a congestion range.  I’m going to ignore that signal and wait for a breakout.
  7. Buying spikes – this short is doomed.  See ya, money.
  8. Yippeee! It’s not turning into a signal!
  9. Ooh, nice profit – I should take that while it’s still there.
  10. Take the profit. TAKE THE PROFIT.  TAKE THE DAMN PROFIT!!!!!
