For me, it comes down to psychology and having too much of a results-based mindset. When I went from demo to live, I found the pressure of having money on the line changed the way I traded e.g. I wouldn't take trades I should be or I would close winning trades out early in order to bank a profit etc.
I think I have now figured out that thinking about results too much really affects the way I trade.
I am now back on demo but I now have a clear plan of what I need to achieve in order to have the confidence and the right mindset to go back to a live account.
