over trading comes from emotions , its another name is revenge trading that beginners do after having some losses.

There is no way to avoid emotions when trading in practically but
by means of real trading discipline emotions can be controlled.

its a c common reason from all , trading with no analysis and emotion trading is also responsible for unfortunate losing.

Generally we lose when our strategy not works practically,
so we the traders always have to develop our trading system by regular practice.

if you wan to develop your trading strategy, be regular in demo which is the best place to be a skill trader by means of practicing but most of the traders we have don't believe the importance of this trading place at all.

no way to deny your message , some major different we can see between demo and live when trading in practically , its all about psychology , nothing without it. there is no real money in demo , for that reason we cant focus

Reasons why 99% of traders lose:

1) Overleveraging: Most people deposit <$1,000 into a live account. If 0.01 lots is the lowest for Mt4, this is already overleveraging the account if risk % is about 1%. Ideally, you should have atleast $10,000.

2) Overtrading: Kind of obvious; you only lose if you expose yourself to the market.

3) Not being decisive: Trading requires you (as the trader) to make decisions, if you cannot make a binary decision (enter/ do not enter), then you're in for a nasty surprise.

4) Emotions: People make poorer decisions if emotions come into play. I cannot stress this enough. Emotions hinder being decisive.

5) Not having a solid system: What makes me cringe is when people say: "I entered a trade because I feel like it." How can you produce consistent results if you do not have a solid foundation?
Work work.

You nailed it very smartly; all of your 5 points are meaningful and that’s the story!

I would add 6) Getting scammed
But apart from that I completely agree with you.

from all reasons i think emotions is foremost , only due to emotions traders lost their temper and trade at random. only we can control emotions by practicing trading more and more.
