One idea that has been very useful in changing my trading habits these past two days is about missing market moves. People always say missing a move feels worse than losing money, but in reality, as long as you don’t place an order, there is no actual loss. Remember, if you don’t place an order, you’re just watching from the sidelines; there is no loss and no cost.
The real cost is never missing out; it is being wrong.
Missing out just means you didn’t make money, while being wrong is what truly loses money. Many people can’t tell the difference between these two things and always feel that failing to catch an opportunity is the same as losing money.
Then, because of regret, they rush to find the next opportunity to "make it back," and as a result they enter the market when their emotions are at their least stable, making it very likely they’ll be wrong. That mistake is when the real losses begin. The principal is gone, and their mindset is broken too—losing on both fronts.
One of the fairest things about the market is this: there is never a shortage of opportunities.
The move you missed this time will be followed by another one later. If you didn’t make it this month, there will be new ones next month. As long as you are still here and your capital is still here, opportunities will always be there.
But if missing out throws off your rhythm and you force yourself to chase or gamble, then you may still be here, but your capital may no longer be.

I topped up 1,490 U last month as principal. I converted 10,000 RMB, and after losing, I only had 12 U left. Then I switched to withdrawing to a cold wallet. Last night, I withdrew the coins accumulated in the cold wallet. After I sold them to pay off my credit card, I had a Qingming dream. I woke up at around 4:00 a.m., grabbed my phone, and checked the market. At that moment, I felt impulsive—thinking I could double this round of money and pay off my loan. But my past experiences reminded me that in this kind of moment it’s very easy to end up at zero, because I only thought about profit and didn’t consider how much I could lose. Before placing a trade, had I actually prepared for how much I was willing to lose? I hadn’t thought about it. Then it occurred to me: trading is a game of losing less. Losing less is the real kind of profit—so I held back.
Later, I saw that if I had actually placed the order then, I would’ve been stopped out. The market also genuinely didn’t move in the direction I expected, and it kept going wrong for me several times. Then another sentence reminded me: I was only watching and missing opportunities, but I hadn’t actually incurred a loss. So why should I be anxious about missing out? I hadn’t lost money. So I held back.
From around 4 a.m. to a bit after 6, I missed a huge wave of upside action. But again, I told myself: I didn’t have any actual loss—so I held back. After seeing a big surge followed by a sharp drop, I predicted that the move might be over and that a reversal was coming. I saw an opportunity, placed an order, and it almost instantly started to get me back on track—profit nearly recovered. I closed the position immediately. The whole holding time was only 3 minutes. Price drops often move faster than price rises because human fear spreads quickly, so short positions usually need to be closed as soon as possible. Plus, my past experience told me that after making a big gain, I should withdraw and stay away from the market. So I immediately withdrew both the principal and the profits, then paid off my credit card in full right away. And yes—I really did what I had wanted at the time: make a big profit and then repay. Trading is just that hard. #trading #trader$AKE

This picture tells us that without a stop-profit and a stop-loss, we will die miserably. If we have a stop-profit and a stop-loss, we will die miserably if we chase randomly. I used to like this kind of thing, and I will remember it after a few losses. Now I don’t dare to touch such extreme fluctuations in currency prices. It’s quite interesting to watch its performance quietly. The fluctuations in the currency market will make me shout “fuck me” from time to time #TRB

Yesterday I recharged 4127U, but because I missed 1000sats in the morning, I traded impulsively and was a little confused. I adjusted my mentality today and waited for the opportunity. #4000U起家
