📒 My First Week Reviewing My Trades: I’m in the Green, but There’s Still Work to Do! 📈
This week, for the first time, I properly reviewed my trading results. The outcome: +5.63 USDT 💚
And you know what’s interesting? The most valuable thing here isn’t even the profit—it’s that I’ve started noticing my own weak spots.
🐹 What I learned about myself:
1️⃣ I rely too much on averaging down. Instead of having a clear entry plan from the start, I sometimes hope that placing an additional order will improve the situation. And that’s not always the right move.
2️⃣ My orders are very small. Even when my balance allows me to trade a slightly larger amount, I often use the minimum. I haven’t decided yet whether I should change that: first, I want to understand the risks better, not just increase the numbers.
🎯 My takeaway from the week:
A positive PnL feels good, but it doesn’t mean the strategy is working perfectly. I want to learn to rely less on averaging down, plan my entries more clearly, and better understand where my results are coming from.
Because my goal isn’t just to make a few USDT—it’s to learn how to trade mindfully.
Now, a question for those of you who’ve been trading for a while 👀
What helped you break the habit of averaging down on a losing position?
