Why Did You Lose in Trading and Get Liquidated?

The mistake most traders make is overtrading and excessive speculation, which ultimately leads to losing all their capital.

But if you ask any trader, they’ll tell you their

first few trades were profitable

only to start losing afterward until their entire account was wiped out.


Why? Because the first trade was based on analysis, focus, and discipline, without recklessness. However, as soon as they started winning, their brain began releasing pleasure hormones like dopamine and serotonin, making them overconfident. Trading became impulsive—entering positions without analysis, and one bad trade after another drained their capital.


Don’t trade when you’re euphoric.Instead, set a clear plan—like aiming for 2-3% daily gains

if you’re a day trader—and **control your emotions. Trade with discipline, not excitement
