Actually, this was bound to happen to me sooner or later. I’d just gotten out of the shower and was reviewing what happened today when I realized I’d been unbelievably stupid. I knew that if I kept shorting, my losses would just keep growing, but I was so convinced the trend was bearish that I kept holding on instead of closing my positions. Around seven tonight, I even chatted with my roommate about how strange the price action of #sndkuadt was—it just kept rising, and not a single bear stepped in to stop it. Turns out I was the fool. I didn’t even realize this was a classic short squeeze. There were so many chances throughout the day to minimize my losses or even make a small profit, but my greed and overconfidence made me miss them time and time again. I was too arrogant to set a stop-loss, and too arrogant to stop adding to my short positions. By the time I came to my senses, I’d used up all my available funds, and could only watch helplessly as my account got liquidated. It feels awful. Yesterday I was telling my roommate how much I’d made, and today I got liquidated, haha. But it’s okay—if these experiences teach me a lesson, maybe they’re not such a bad thing. At least the amount I lost in this liquidation is still within what I can afford. Getting liquidated also stopped me from making bigger and bigger mistakes. I’ll get my head straight and try again tomorrow. By the way, since you’ve read this far, could you please give me some advice? Thank you ❤️
