Don't be an old fool like me.
I started trading Forex 2006 I was losing all my money for 12 years. I was always using 500X leverage
I sold my house, land, cars and valuables to trade but with losses.
I entered crypto in 2015. Just the same story. Losses upon losses.
If I fund my account, it does not last for 3 days; at most 8 days I will blow up my account

4 major thing has killed me all these 20 years
1) Over leveraging.
2) High risk trading.
3) Entering without pull back
4) Greediness
$
1) Over leveraging. Now I don't use more than 10x leverage
2) High risk trading. I could triple my account in 3 days and lose all within two days. But now I risk less than 3%
3) Entering without pull back. Now I look at the charts and set my alerts and as the alert is triggered I enter at the best price
4) I always try to double or triple my account in a day or two. I was a fool all these years.
Today I made just 3% and I am through for the day.
For some times now, my major income comes from this little I am making and I am growing slowly.
It is not how much you make but how long you will last in this trade.
