positions and let the winners run (inpatience results in overtrading, which in turn results in high transaction costs) • Lack of stock trading plan that defines your goals, entry / exit points, etc. • Lack of risk management rules on stop losses,
position sizing, leverage, diversification, etc. • Lack of discipline to stick to your stock trading plan and risk management rules • Getting emotional (fear, greed, hope, revenge, regret, bragging, getting overconfident after big wins, sheep - like crowd - following behavior, etc.) • Not knowing and understanding the competition • Not knowing the catalysts that trigger stock price changes • Averaging down (adding to losers instead of adding to winners) • Putting your stock trading capital in 1 - 2 or more than 6 - 7 stocks instead of diversifying into about 5 stocks • Bottom / top fishing • Not understanding the specifics of
