I Blew Multiple Trading Accounts.
I thought I had a strategy problem.
I was wrong.
Looking back, I was making the same mistakes over and over.
Here are the biggest lessons trading humbled me with... 🧵👇
Your stop loss isn't there to protect the trade.
It's there to protect you.
Every trader wants to avoid getting stopped out.
Professionals accept it as the cost of doing business.
A stopped-out trade can be replaced.
A blown account can't.
Risk isn't what blows accounts.
Position sizing is.
Most traders blame the market.
The market isn't your problem.
Risking too much is.
A good setup with poor risk management is still a bad trade.
Trade smaller.
Stay in the game longer.

@oj_tobi A profitable trading career can open many doors, but consistency is earned through discipline, patience, and continuous learning. Keep showing up. 📈
@QueenTea__ Patience only pays when it's backed by a valid trading plan. Holding a trade because your edge is still intact is discipline holding a losing idea without a reason isn't. 📈
