Mark Douglas: Why You Can't Stop Revenge Trading

Описание: Description:
Have you ever jumped back into the market after a bad trade, convinced this one will fix everything? That urge — revenge trading — is louder than most traders realize. In this video we take a clear, practical journey inside your mind: why revenge trading happens, what the brain does (loss aversion, emotional shortcuts), and a simple step-by-step mental exercise + five habits that actually stop the cycle.

What you’ll learn:
• Why revenge trading hijacks your thinking and makes losses worse
• How to recognize the “wild horse” (emotional impulses) vs. the “wise teacher” (logical thinking)
• A 5-step breathing + checking exercise to stop revenge trades immediately
• Five realistic habits you can start today (pause, journal, loss limits, your why, a trading buddy)
• How to turn hope into patient, high-quality trades — not impulsive fixes

How to use this video:
