Most losses in early Nifty trading come from a handful of repeatable mistakes — recognising them is the fastest way to avoid them.
Trading Without a Stop-Loss
Entering a Nifty futures or options position without a predefined exit is one of the most common — and costly — habits among new traders.
Oversizing Positions
Because index derivatives are leveraged, sizing a position based on excitement rather than risk tolerance can turn a small adverse move into a large loss quickly.
Ignoring the Broader Trend
Taking a contrarian trade without strong justification, purely because a level “should” hold, often ignores what the broader trend and open interest data are actually suggesting.
