1. Ignoring Risk Management Many traders still overleverage or skip stop-loss orders. In 2025, managing risk is more important than ever due to market volatility.
2. Chasing the News Without Strategy Reacting emotionally to headlines without a solid plan leads to poor decisions. News trading must be backed by analysis.
3. Trading Without a Plan Jumping into trades without a clear setup is gambling. Set rules, goals, and entry/exit points before every trade.
4. Overtrading Trying to recover losses or chasing “revenge trades” is a trap. Discipline and patience are essential to success.
5. Not Keeping Up with Market Changes The forex market in 2025 is shaped by geopolitical tensions, central bank policies, and AI. Stay updated and adapt.
