10 Common Trading Mistakes New PSX Investors Make

  1. No research – buying based on a friend’s tip.
  2. Panic selling – selling during a 5% dip.
  3. Overconcentration – putting all money in one stock.
  4. Ignoring fees – brokerage, CDC, tax eat profits.
  5. Chasing social media “toofani” stocks – most crash quickly.
  6. No exit plan – not deciding sell price beforehand.
  7. Using leverage (margin) – amplifies losses.
  8. Overconfidence after a few wins – markets change fast.
  9. Trading too frequently – each trade costs money.
  10. Not learning from mistakes – keep a trading journal.
Data point: PSE users who completed 10+ virtual trades before going live had 43% fewer losses in their first 3 months.
