Not stopping before reaching daily loss or emotional limits
Common Mistakes · Market Rush Help Center
Knowing When to Stop Is a Trading Skill
One of the most underestimated skills in trading is knowing when to stop. Some participants continue trading as they approach their daily loss threshold or while emotionally frustrated, believing one more trade will fix the situation.
Market Rush enforces daily loss and drawdown rules specifically to prevent this spiral. Reaching Max Daily Loss closes exposure and locks trading for the rest of the day. Reaching Max Total Loss permanently fails the account.
Emotional Losses Count Too
Even if numerical limits have not been breached, emotional instability often leads to poor execution, ignored stop losses, and impulsive entries. These behaviours are inconsistent with professional intraday trading.
Disciplined participants treat stopping early as a success, not a failure. Protecting the account is always more important than forcing another trade.
