Overtrading Test

Are you trading too much? 7 quick questions to see if volume is quietly draining your account.

Question 1 of 5

How many trades do you take on a typical day?

Only the setups in my plan โ€” often 0โ€“2
A few more than planned, 3โ€“5
Usually 6โ€“12, I lose count some days
Dozens โ€” I'm in and out constantly

Do you open trades when there's no clear setup?

Never โ€” no setup, no trade
Rarely, only on strong hunches
Fairly often, I "feel" the move
Constantly โ€” I just want to be in something

Do you trade out of boredom when nothing is happening?

No โ€” a quiet market means I sit on my hands
Occasionally I'll poke at a small position
Yes, flat and idle feels wrong to me
Always โ€” an empty screen makes me force a trade

Do you respect your own max-trades-per-day rule?

Yes โ€” I have one and I stop when I hit it
Usually, though I bend it on good days
I have a rule but blow past it often
What rule? I trade until I'm done or tapped out

How many symbols are you juggling at once?

1โ€“2 โ€” I focus on what I know well
3โ€“4, but I keep them under control
5โ€“8, my attention is stretched thin
Whatever's moving โ€” I can't keep track
0/ 100

A self-assessment for reflection, not a diagnosis.
