I've been trading for 3 years. Here are 7 things I wish someone had told me on day one. 🧵

[Zentry Journal @Zentry_Journal]

Overtrading is the most common — and most expensive — habit in retail trading.

And almost nobody tracks it.

Signs you're overtrading:

→ You feel like you "need" to be in a trade
→ Your best days have 2-3 trades, your worst have 8+
→ You trade to recover losses, not because there's a setup
→ You feel bored when you're flat

Boredom is not a trade signal.

A thought worth sitting with:

The trades you're most confident about are often your worst executions.

Confidence = loosening the rules slightly.
"This one's obvious" = entering without full confirmation.

Your journal is humbling in the best way.

It shows you that your conviction level and your actual win rate are barely correlated.

@zentry_journal shows you both sides — trade-by-trade execution quality AND strategy-level expectancy trends.

So you always know which problem you actually have.

Traders quit strategies that are working all the time.

They also keep strategies that are broken for too long.

Here's how to tell the difference — and why most traders get it wrong 🧵

The rule of thumb:

Never change a strategy during a losing streak.

Wait for 30 clean, rule-following trades.

If the edge isn't there after 30 honest trades — then you change the strategy.

If it is there — you change nothing except your discipline.

[Zentry Journal @Zentry_Journal]

The market doesn't care that you missed the move.

It will have another one.

The traders who last the longest are the ones who are completely unbothered by setups they didn't take.

"Not my setup. Next."

That detachment is a skill. You build it by reviewing your data and seeing exactly how much FOMO trades cost you.

@Danieltrades @deartrader__ Hope everyone had a good weekend, and reflected on their journal

[Zentry Journal @Zentry_Journal]

FOMO has cost traders more money than bad strategies.

It's the trade you weren't supposed to take.
The one that "looks like it's moving."
The one where you're in before you even know your stop.

And the worst part?

You usually know it's a FOMO trade while you're taking it.

A journal doesn't stop FOMO. But it shows you the pattern — and the pattern is always the same.
