0 Votes I would say most people loose money because they open too many trades for their account to support(under-capitalize).They may have open too many trades because they want to make more money(greed) and in the end when the trade turn against them their fear makes them not close the trade and take the loss but they continue trading until they get a margin call which closes all their trade immediately hence making them loose more. by RPT 1 year ago by RPT 1 year ago
