The choppy market is actually pretty complex and quite shady.
When you set your risk-reward ratio to 1:1 or higher, you’re basically stepping into a trap.
The price just bounces around in that range, and before your take-profit hits, it reverses on you.
But your stop-loss? That gets hit every time, because the boundaries of the range are just there to be tested back and forth.
So you’ll definitely have way more stop-loss orders than take-profit ones.
It’s like trying to play hard in a market where you’ve got no edge.
Eventually, your mindset crumbles, and you start trading out of frustration.
The more you lose, the more you double down, and the more you double down, the more frequently you enter trades, leading to constant trading.
The end result? Liquidation.
Just two sentences that are key:
First, protect your capital.
Second, remember the first one.
