What are Cognitive Biases & Behavioral Biases?

New: Join our 3-hour live workshop with Spencer to learn the basics of trading and make your first live trade!

To help traders and investors overcome the problem of emotions in decision-making, the first step is to be aware of the situations in which we might exercise flawed thinking, in the form of cognitive biases.

Cognitive biases are systematic errors in thinking that affect the decisions and judgments that people make, so they might think they are making logical and rational decisions, but in reality they are not, because the thinking/deduction process is flawed.

Once you are aware of these biases in your decision-making, it would be easier to find ways to avoid or overcome them.
