Overtrading happens when a business expands too quickly without having the financial resources to support such a quick expansion. If suitable sources of finance are not obtained, overtrading can lead to business failure.
Importantly, overtrading can occur even a business is profitable. It is an issue of working capital and cash flow.
Overtrading is, therefore, essentially a problem of growth.
