What this lesson covers
A run of winning trades is a more dangerous moment than a run of losing ones, and this lesson explains why. Wins raise confidence, and confidence quietly becomes the belief that you have worked the market out. The behaviour that follows is predictable: larger position sizes, rules treated as guidelines, setups taken that would have been refused a week earlier, and risk management applied loosely because it has not been needed recently. The lesson covers how overconfidence builds without announcing itself, what it does to a funded account where a single oversized loss can end everything, and the practical protections against it, including fixed risk that does not move with results and a review process that measures decisions rather than outcomes.
