Trading Psychology
Trading psychology refers to the mental and emotional aspects of trading that influence decision-making. It encompasses managing emotions like fear and greed, maintaining discipline, developing resilience after losses, and building consistent habits.
Why it matters for traders
Most experienced traders consider psychology to be 80% of trading success. Technical knowledge and strategy are easier to learn than the emotional discipline required to follow rules consistently — especially during drawdowns or after losing streaks.
