🧠 Trading Psychology & Risk Management

Master the Mindset – Trade with Discipline

Welcome to the Trading Psychology & Risk Management module by Punjabi Share Bazar – the final and most important part of any successful trader’s journey. You may know all the strategies and technicals, but without mental discipline and proper risk control, success in trading is impossible.

This section helps you build a strong mindset, eliminate emotional mistakes, and protect your capital.

🎯 Why This Module Matters

“Markets are driven by behavior. Master your mind, and you master the market.”

Manage fear, greed, and impulsive behavior
Stick to your trading plan
Preserve your capital through risk control
Build consistency, not just lucky profits

Recognize emotional triggers and stop in time
Create emotional “checklists” before entering a trade

Stop loss is your safety net, and your target is your reward plan.

Avoiding common SL/TP mistakes
