Quick aside: I came across the headline “Musk warns Democrats: If they investigate him and his companies, he’ll retaliate,” and it reminded me of how I used to be.
Back then, I’d see a news story and immediately want to trade. More than once, I chased the market at the height of the excitement, then sold in a panic.
These days, my routine is to read the whole story first, wait to see how the market reacts, and only then decide whether to make a move. I’ll do the same this time with $DOGE .
In the end, the easiest mistake to make isn’t getting the direction wrong—it’s letting a single news story dictate your position.
Has anyone else had a similar experience?
