Hi Deriv Community,

It’s crucial to keep your emotions under control as market conditions constantly change.

**What is revenge trading?**

Revenge trading refers to a trader’s emotional response to a significant loss. It’s a reaction triggered by disappointment over the substantial loss.

**How to avoid revenge trading?**

1. Use [risk-management](https://www.google.com/url?q=https://deriv.com/academy/trading-guides/risk-management-with-average-true-range-indicator&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1737528835478793&usg=AOvVaw3V5LdYN_kq7Qvw7a5kZ-_i) features like [Stop-Loss](https://community.deriv.com/t/cfd-trading-features-on-deriv/26602).
