Here are some interesting facts about trading I stumbled across from CryptoCred which I think may be helpful
Common error to avoid when you day trade, I modified some to reflect my own opinion.

1. Revenge trading, trying to get back a trade that has been lost or chasing a trade.

2. Never using a Stop

3. Not having a plan (Risk/Entry/Exit/Stop)

4. Not sticking to your plan

5. Greed — risking too much/not taking profit

6. Being too emotional about a trade.

Plug these equity drains & increase your odds of being profitable.
 You could add to the list and make better trades

I think the 6th point is the most common mistake in trading activities, that is too emotional about trading. because in my opinion the most important trading activity is self-control which must be a benchmark because emotional attitudes will lead us to the wrong mindset.
