Common Investor and Trader Blunders
Letting Losses Grow
One of the defining characteristics of successful investors and traders is their ability to take a small loss quickly if a trade is not working out and move on to the next trade idea. Unsuccessful traders, on the other hand, can become paralyzed if a trade goes against them. Rather than taking quick action to cap a loss, they may hold on to a losing position in the hope that the trade will eventually work out. A losing trade can tie up trading capital for a long time and may result in mounting losses and severe depletion of capital. $Tesla(TSLA.US$ $AMC Entertainment(AMC.US$ $Apple(AAPL.US$ $BlackBerry(BB.US$

Cow Moo-ney : Therefore it is important to be able to “recognise” the loss and move on. But sadly, sometimes people can be oblivious or perhaps to put it in a nicer term, they are “hopeful” that things will go their way eventually. Speaking from my own (bad) experience haha
