Trading Psychology / Humility (Connect through empathy)

The $1,000 mistake that taught me how to trade crypto correctly 📉

A trader’s worst enemy isn’t the market, the whales, or the liquidation algorithm. It’s your own ego.

A while ago, I lost a significant position by committing the three cardinal sins of trading in a single afternoon:
1️⃣ No Stop Loss: Thinking that "the price will recover soon."
2️⃣ Overtrading: Opening trades out of revenge to recover what I’d lost.
3️⃣ Excessive leverage: Chasing quick money without considering the consequences.

The market has no feelings. If you don’t stick to your risk management plan, it will liquidate you sooner or later. I’m sharing this today so you don’t make the same mistake.

Option A: The exact same thing happened to me when I started.

Option B: I always use a strict Stop Loss, no exceptions.

Option C: I only trade Spot to avoid headaches.
