The last chance won’t come again — the scarcity illusion.
Trading Psychology
Myth: The last chance won’t come again
Scarcity Illusion — FOMO / Scarcity Bias
The myth:
• Claiming an opportunity won’t come again to force you into a quick decision
• “If you don’t get in now, you’ll miss the boat forever!”
Why does it happen? — Causes
• Triggering fear of missing out (FOMO)
• Scarcity bias makes people overestimate the value of rare things
• Social pressure and liquidity hunting
The impact — Consequences
• Entering trades randomly without analysis
• Chasing prices and taking on greater risk
• Regret and losses after the market reverses
How can you overcome it?
1- Identify your emotions: Acknowledge that you’re under the influence of FOMO before making a decision
2- Stop and verify: Review technical analysis and news from reliable sources
3- Follow a pre-set plan: Define entry and exit points and manage risk
4- Stick to risk management: Don’t risk more than 1–2%, and avoid high leverage
