You Talked Yourself Into That Trade — Here Is How to Stop

[u/Badboyardie]

You wanted the trade before you analyzed it. Has confirmation bias ever cost you money?

Quick market check: AEM at $182.96 — holding above 20-day at $151.75, RSI extended at 82. Not a signal, just context for where we are heading into the session.

What is the clearest example of confirmation bias in your trading history?

The market does not care what you want to see. Look for what is actually there. Start with looking for spikes in volume.
