Revenge Trading Ruin- 02/09/26

One bad trade can hurt. Revenge trading can end your career.

In today's episode, we tackle a powerful viewer question about revenge trading—why it happens, how it sneaks into even experienced traders' decision-making, and why it's one of the fastest ways to blow up an account. I'll share personal experiences from my own trading journey and walk through a real trade sequence that completely destroyed a trader's account, step by step.

This isn't about shaming mistakes—it's about understanding the psychology behind them and building rules that stop emotion from hijacking your process. We'll also zoom out and assess the current market landscape, highlighting where real trading opportunities exist and where traders are most likely to get themselves into trouble.

If you've ever felt the urge to "get it back," this episode is for you.
