One of the most dangerous mistakes in trading doesn’t always start with a loss.
Sometimes, it starts with a few wins.
After several successful trades, confidence naturally increases. That can be a good thing — until confidence turns into overconfidence.
You may start:
Taking larger positions Entering trades without your usual confirmation Moving your stop-loss Trading more often than planned Taking unnecessary risks because “everything is working”
The market hasn’t changed because you had a good streak.
Your behavior has changed.
A useful habit is to keep the same risk rules after a winning trade as you would after a losing one.
A winning streak is not a reason to increase risk. It’s a reason to stay disciplined.
What usually affects your trading more: fear after a loss or overconfidence after a win?
