I've noticed that the most dangerous trade isn't the losing trade — it's the one right after a solid winner.
When you’re up, dopamine tricks you into thinking you’re invincible. I used to give back most of my gains chasing that feeling of being “on a roll.”
To break that loop, I started a simple 3‑step routine:
1. Label the urge to jump back in as just that — an urge.
2. Step away for 60 seconds (literally walk away).
3. Return only to follow my pre‑planned strategy.
This "win -> walk" protocol reduced my revenge trading dramatically and kept my discipline intact. I made a short, 14‑minute video breaking down the psychology behind this and how to implement it across forex, stocks and crypto:
Would love to hear if anyone else has similar post‑win routines or other ways to avoid self‑sabotage after a win.
