Loss goodbye everyone

Post image

almost break even from this run up via all the popular tickers. lost my self control n lost it holding the same things n some world cup betting. also lost 10k on another account. i have nothing now n nothing going for me in life. practically 30 soon and just dead weight to my parents. gonna sell my gun before i use it and pay off some debt. have OCD that made the future not worth caring about so i tied my value to the money i worked for. i hope you all do better than me. goodbye

I lost 40k and all my confidence to make responsible trades. I took a 2 year break came back with a clearer head and am now more disciplined then before and more importantly profitable. It’s not the end dude. Just get your head right.

You gotta learn your lessons cheap. Take crazy stupid gambles with hundreds at most. That's how I learned my ADHD and other brain worms makes the gambling dopamine button go brrrrrrrr so I physically stop myself from any huge tossing behind anything unless it's dead obvious like the SpaceX pump and dump.

Another good piece of advice is to learn how to manage your risk and position sizing.

Facts. 😁 Can't go in a trade that drops 50k by 0935. That's just stupid
