The Most Dangerous Times in Trading

About this episode

The episode discusses the most dangerous times in trading, emphasizing that risks often arise when traders are experiencing success rather than during losses.

In this episode I talk about what I believe is the most dangerous time to trade — and surprisingly, it’s not when you’re losing. Many traders think the biggest threat comes during drawdowns, but in reality the most dangerous moment often happens when things are going well. Confidence starts to grow, discipline starts to slip, and traders begin taking risks they normally wouldn’t. I break down why this happens, how it leads to blown accounts, and what you need to watch for if you want to stay consistent over the long term.
