The biggest single mistake was buying Tepnel Life Sciences, who were (I was convinced) just about to reveal something truly marvellous (which I can’t remember now) so that their share price would go straight up.
The worst strategy I ever used was to keep buying blue chip shares as all the major stock markets fell.
The worst tendency I suffer from is to become over-confident and throw risk management out the window.
Hey ho. I think I’m over these things now.

Taking a loss because of spot equity fluctuation rather than technical developments.
I believe the biggest mistake in Trading is Greed.
Losing money, wrong speculation, dreadful decisions are all a part of learning. Its an ongoing process that makes you better with time, its uncontrollable. But what can be controlled is the human urge of getting more.
I traded way too big. I made a lot of money. I lost that money, it induced massive levels of fear.
I traded on and off every few months. Every now and then I’d accumulate a small fortune but would inevitably lose it and the cycle repeated.
This slowed down the rate at which I was obtaining screen time

The biggest mistake I made was thinking you need to get a high % return to be profitable.
Using a tight stop loss so smart money can take my money.
