Whether you’re trading on eToro or a local brokerage, first-time traders often fall into these traps:

1. Trading Without a Plan

Always have entry, exit, and stop-loss defined. Don’t trade based on gut feeling or random social media posts.

2. Overleveraging

Many beginners use margin or options without fully understanding the risk. Start small and scale gradually.

3. Chasing Hot Stocks

Buying based on hype (e.g., Tesla, Nvidia) without technical support or earnings catalysts leads to losses.

4. No Risk Management

Never risk more than 2% of your capital per trade. Use alerts, limit orders, and avoid revenge trades.

5. Ignoring Fundamentals

Even in swing trading, earnings reports, debt levels, and market news matter. Combine charts with context.

The Dubai Golden Visa is a long-term residency program designed to attract investors, entrepreneurs, professionals, and exceptional talent to the UAE. In 2025, the process has become more streamlined than ever, with multiple pathways available to secure this prestigious residency.

✅ 1. Real Estate Investment

Invest a minimum of AED 2 million in freehold property (can be mortgaged with a 50% payment). This is the most common path to Golden Visa eligibility and can include residential or commercial assets.

✅ 2. Business Ownership

Entrepreneurs owning a UAE-registered company with revenue of AED 1 million+ or successful startup founders recognized by a UAE incubator are eligible for a 10-year Golden Visa.

✅ 3. Specialized Talent or Academic Excellence

Doctors, engineers, PhD holders, and top university graduates with strong academic or professional records may also qualify under the ‘talent’ track.

✅ 4. Retirement Option

UAE residents aged 55+ can apply for a 5-year renewable Golden Visa by meeting criteria in savings, property ownership, or monthly income.
