I risked everything on what looked like a “sure thing.”
REVENGE TRADING had taken over completely.
Lost 3 months of profits in 2 hours.
Sat in my car afterward, questioning everything.
That’s when I developed my 30-minute rule:
• Step away from your trading station immediately
• Write down exactly what went wrong
• Only return when you can objectively identify a proper setup
The psychological pull is intense.
Your ego screams “get it back NOW” and logic disappears.
You’re revenge trading if you:
• Double position size after a loss
• Enter trades without proper analysis
• Feel angry while placing orders
• Completely ignore your trading plan
That painful lesson in 2003 became the foundation of my trading psychology course.
Now I help traders avoid the same costly mistake.
The market will be there tomorrow.
Your capital might not be.
What’s your biggest emotional trigger when trading?
