Not staying alive, Risking too much

Over trading
Random trades
Not waiting till trade entry

Trading Psychology
1. Trading plan - Trade logic, Entry, exit, stop loss
2. Journal- How much risk per trade, system loss or
psychological
3. Check list - Did you follow the rules as per plan. What
issues were there in execution
4. Expectation realisation (risk capacity, how much you can
digest)
5. Risk management- take defined risk every day for at least
one month then analyse and increase or decrease your risk
capacity.

Options are high-risk instruments, and it is important for traders to recognize how much risk they have at any point in time.
While trading in options, you are always dealing with numbers.Greeks, such as the delta, gamma, vega, and theta

To become successful, options traders must practice discipline. Doing extensive research, identifying opportunities, setting up
right trade, forming and sticking to a strategy, setting up goals, and forming an exit strategy are all part of the discipline.You ca
skip your homework and blame the herd for your losses. Instead, you must devise an independent trading strategy that works
order for it to be a successful options strategy.
Patience is one quality all options traders have. Patient investors are willing to wait for the market to provide the right
opportunity, rather than trying to make a big win on every market movement.

It is crucial for traders to be able to interpret the news, separate hype from reality and make appropriate decisions based on t

Conventional wisdom suggests up to 90% of options traders will realize losses. What separates successful traders from averag
ones is successful traders are able to learn from their losses and implement what they learn in their trading strategies. Elite
traders practice…and practice some more until they learn the lessons behind the trade, understand the economics behind the
market and see the market behavior as it is happening.
You cannot stake a claim on the market but must go with the market or leave it when it is not the type that suits you. You mus
accept losses occur and that it is inevitable that you will lose. Acceptance rather than fighting the market is paramount to
understanding, clarity, and finally winning.

An options trader who plans is more likely to succeed than one who operates on instinct and feel. If you don't have a plan, you
will place random trades, and consequently, you'll be directionless.You will also know how to cover your losses or when to boo
profits. You can see how the plan has worked (or not worked) for you. All these steps are essential to developing a strong trad
strategy.
Most successful options traders keep diligent records of their trades. Maintaining proper trade records is an essential habit to
help you avoid making costly decisions. The history of your trade records also provides a wealth of information to help you
improve your odds of success.
