Just as an aside, I came across “a certain address went long on SOXL twice within four hours and got liquidated, losing a total of about $586,000,” and it reminded me of how I used to be.
Back then, whenever I saw a news story, I’d want to make a trade. More than once, I ended up chasing the rally near the top and selling in a panic.
These days, my routine is to read the original source first, wait to see what the money does, and only then decide whether to act. $BTC was no different.
At the end of the day, what scares me most isn’t getting the call wrong—it’s letting a single piece of news dictate my pace.
Anyone else been there?
