Re: Overtrading: A Common Mistake

I think that many traders (myself included) can easily fall into the over-trading trap out of boredom.

If the markets are not moving, or nothing catches my eye, I have found myself jumping into trades I would not normally touch. Traders tend to have a very very low boredom threshhold, which is sometimes difficult to control!!

Be careful, boredom can be very expensive.
