I bought into ETH at around 30 bucks and cashed out at 370 for a tidy 28k.

Got back into the market about a week ago and I'm going fucking insane. Literally trading on emotion, buying shit coins and then selling them 5 minutes later at a loss. I've averaged 3 hours of sleep the last week. I spend all day refreshing bittrex, liqui, biz, reddit, and a few slack channels.

My ONLY good trade was buying some GAS at 10 bucks and dumping it on some cuck at 30. Made 6k from that. But I think I've lost it if you add up all these shit trades. Have literally had my hand in every coin. Bought OMG at 3 dollars sell it at 3.50. Buy NEO at 20 sell it at 23. Buy Civic at 8k sell it at 7.8k then it jumps to 180k. Then I buy back into OMG at ATH and it dumps. Buy back into CVC at ATH and it dumps. Probably cause I'm an addictive personality neet with no other sources of pleasure in my life and this shit is gambling on steroids for your dopamine receptors.

I'm looking for the nearest window

you are doing it wrong. you buy and hold. if it dips, then buy more. if it goes higher, then you gained money. either way you win. BUY AND HOLD OR YOU WILL FOREVER POST PINK WOJAKS HERE. BUY AND FUCKING HOLD.

every single person who has bought and held in the past, well like 90%+ of them.. have gained money. because they all work under the assumption that all cryptocurrency is going to get more valuable. it's been true so far. there will be big dips probably across the board, but you need to buy and you need to hold.

hopefully you have an income. set aside a certain % of that income every week/month to invest in cryptoshit to HOLD

Why aren't you doing the same with Neo

Either you learn to develop a systematic trading plan or you enjoy losing unrealized gains due to greed.

1. Meditate: Clear your mind of emotional bias, trade like a machine.

2.Risk: Limit downside, maximize upside.

3. Position: Entry is vital, use TA, sentiment, fundamentals to calculate a estimated safe risk / reward.

4. Review: Create a spreadsheet which feeds infomation via JSON API to gather all your trades. Discover what is making your P/L go down and what is making it go up, find the optimum routine and your unrealized gains will flourish, even during a bear market.

TIP: When others are distracted on pumps, you should already be buying the next one that hasn't pumped. AKA ones that are in buy zones right now.

GNT an ZEN are perfect examples of good buy zones.

People here like to call a bunch of coins scams, but the biggest scam is the myth that you can make money daytrading. Unless you're a savant or have bots you will just get lucky a few times before going negative.

This anon gets it. The longer you stay in the day trading game, the closer your chance of success approaches zero.

You could make 500 good trades in row. All it takes is one bad trade to wipe all of that away. Tread carefully.

>> No.3039993

I understand the concept but I have a hard time accepting it. The world is so complex. Everything can flip on a dime. Especially in the tech world. The solid coins already have valuation of hundreds of millions if not billions. And the low market cap coins are appearing by the dozen. You have to spend forever researching each one and even then you could be wrong about everything because they lied to you or something unforeseen happens.

How does one lose his portfolio if he allocates no more than 5% of his total portfolio while only losing a maximum of 5% before stop loss?

5% of 5% is nothing, i could lose 20 times in a row and make one good trade and wipe the negetive away given the nature of this market.

confirming this.. i started to buy neo and traded up to 138 at 300k. i wanted 140 neo to put it in my wallet, then moon mission came and i thought it will dip back at 500k, 600k, 700k and so on.. i bought back at 950k.. and now i only hold about 40 neo. literally wanna KMS. you can be lucky but in the end just do your research and have trust and hold.

As I stated, it's because I'm a depressed socially isolated NEET with literally nothing going on in my life. In this mentally unstable position, meddling with trades and being unable to delay gratification is compulsive. I just looked. I'm still up 2800 in the last few days. Certainly better than losing money, but I did forfeit much more than that.

Yeah, till one day you decide to break your own rule based on a "sure thing" you read about and you're bored of making money in tiny increments (5% of portfolio by the standards of the average biz portfolio is fucking puny, and you do want to get rich, don't you?), and it blows up in your face, and you panic, and you make it worse. You think it can't happen to you, but unless you're trading entirely with a bot, play this game long enough and I can almost guarantee that it will.

I used to be like you. Looking for these quick moon trips and quick money. Guess what? I lost most of it.

I realized only way to win at this is get at the ground floor of something that has potential, and just hold. In 6 months any good coin will be higher. So that 28k could be 60k by end of the year. Wouldn't you like that?

My recommendation is OMG at the moment.

No, not hundred. Hundreds.

I can tell you're a NEET teenager not just from the size of your welfare-tier portfolio, but that you're so shocked people have six-figure crypto portfolios that you require screenshot evidence (as if that would somehow be proof of anything).
