The Danger of Holding Losing Positions and Hoping for a Reversal

Behavior

When a position moves against the initial prediction, traders refuse to admit the mistake and keep holding, convinced the price “must” reverse.$XMR

Consequence

Missing the chance to exit at an acceptable loss (e.g., 1–2% of capital) leads to deeper losses until the position becomes unbearable, forcing a panic sell at the bottom.$PAXG

Psychological Trap

Hope is not a strategy. Holding losses often turns small mistakes into catastrophic outcomes.

Key Insight $RAY

Discipline beats emotion—define your exit plan before entering any trade to avoid destructive behaviors.
