My FOMO Trade: The Pain of Buying the Top
One of my worst trades happened because of pure FOMO.
Everyone on Twitter and Telegram was screaming “to the moon 🚀🚀🚀”. I didn’t want to miss out, so I jumped in… right at the top.
🙀 A few hours later, the chart flipped red. -10%... -20%... eventually -30%. I just sat there, watching my portfolio bleed, asking myself: “Why did I buy so high?”
Lesson learned: Markets punish impatience. If you enter without a plan, you’ll pay for it.
👉 Pro tip: Don’t chase green candles. Wait for pullbacks, confirmations, and trade only when the setup makes sense. 🐾
