Overtrading
Overtrading is taking more trades than your setups justify, because you are at the screen rather than because a setup is there. Every extra trade pays fees, win or lose.
With 1% risk and a stop of 10% of the daily ATR, a Bitcoin trade with market orders in and out paid about 0.38% of the account in fees in October 2026. Five trades a day for 22 trading days comes to about 41% of the account a month, before any losses.
