Top ten reason for losing money in the market

1. Letting Poor Performance Slide
2. Refusing to Take a Loss
3. Avoiding the decision entirely
4. Owning more stocks than you can watch
5. Panic Selling
6. Basing Decisions on Past Performance rather than the future outlook
7. Refusing to Take a gain and pay the Taxes
8. Falling in love with stocks like Rambus
9. Picking stocks with a lampshade on your head.
10. Failure to listen to Carpino.
