True, and the tricky part is most traders don’t even realize it’s happening until the damage is already done. It usually starts with just one more trade to recover, and then risk slowly creeps up. By the time you notice, you’re already deep in drawdown. Having fixed rules helps catch it early.

Both revenge trading and FOMO come from the same place, reacting instead of following a plan. After a loss, revenge trading tries to fix it quickly, while FOMO makes you chase moves you already missed. In both cases, you’re no longer trading your setup. It feels justified in the moment, but over time it just leads to inconsistent results and deeper drawdowns.
