Habits that help
- Set a budget before you trade and do not add to it to win back losses.
- Treat any single market as uncertain, however confident the price, a forecast or an AI summary looks.
- Read the market's rules and settlement source before trading.
- Take breaks, especially after a run of losses or wins.
- Do not trade with borrowed money or money meant for bills.
Warning signs
Trading more than you planned, chasing losses, hiding trading from people close to you, or feeling anxious when you are not trading can mean it is time to stop or get help.
