At three in the morning, I was staring at the candlestick chart on my phone, my fingers trembling.
MBL had already fallen to 0.000740, and the group chat was full of despair. Some people said the coin was finished, others said the team had abandoned the project, and a few posted screenshots of their liquidations, their loss figures glaring in red. I had just 800 U left in my account—the money for next month’s rent.
I knew it wasn’t rational, but at that moment I just felt that after falling this far, it couldn’t possibly go any lower.
I used all 800 U to buy at market price. The instant I placed the order, my heart was pounding so loudly I thought my roommate would wake up. My average fill price was 0.000752, almost right at the bottom. After buying, I tucked my phone under my pillow and forced myself to sleep.
At seven the next morning, my alarm woke me up. The first thing I did was reach for my phone.
MBL: 0.000890, up 18%.
I froze for three seconds, then sprang out of bed. My roommate was startled and asked what I was freaking out about now. I ignored him and stared intently at the chart. Buying pressure kept pouring in, and trading volume had jumped from three million last night to twelve million. On-chain data showed that three new addresses were accumulating large amounts.
At eleven in the morning, the price broke through 0.001. I sent a message to the group: “Guys, MBL has broken its previous high.” Nobody replied. They were probably all asleep.
At two in the afternoon: 0.001105.
My 800 U had turned into 1,180 U. A 56% gain in just twelve hours. I stared at the figure for a long time, a flood of thoughts running through my mind. Should I add to my position? Take profit? Or keep holding?
I thought about buying STRK last year. Back then, STRK fell all the way from 0.25 to 0.06. I bought the dip at 0.08 and held for two months, until it climbed to 0.16. I sold after doubling my money. Later, it went up to 0.3. I made a profit, but looking back, my returns would have been completely different if I’d held on a little longer.
This time, I decided to do things differently. I sold half and recovered my initial investment of 590 U. I chose to keep holding the remaining 590 U.
At last, someone spoke up in the group. A user called “Futures Trading God” asked: “Is it still worth chasing MBL now?”
I replied: “What were you doing when it fell to 0.00074?”
He didn’t reply.
That evening, MBL pulled back to 0.00095, but I felt nothing. I’d already gotten my initial investment back, so the rest of my position was pure profit. If it went up, I’d be happy. If it fell, it didn’t matter.
That’s the most important lesson I’ve learned: Never put money you can’t afford to lose into the market. But if you’re confident enough in your judgment to buy when everyone else is afraid, the market will reward your courage.
Of course, some people also asked me why I didn’t buy BTC or ETH. I said that big coins have their stability, but small coins have their stories. How much could 800 U gain from buying BTC? But if you pick the right small coin with 800 U, it could be enough to change your life for a month.
Tonight, MBL is still fluctuating, and my remaining position is still there. I’m not greedy, but I don’t regret it either.
That’s the magic of the crypto world: behind every late-night candlestick chart lies an ordinary person’s wager and dream.
