Fun! I started trading in late 2015. Biggest mistakes made:
>got too cocky during 2017 dude weed bull run, allowed way too much drawdown off the highs expecting another jolt up before it was done. Took extreme risk and bought warrants for dude weed lmao pharma related penny stock. Butcher's bill: -50%
>went all-in long on 2x leveraged oil before the April OPEC meeting this year because I gambled that OPEC and Russia would try to overcompensate for the demand loss by cutting production more than they needed to. Russia then made a power move, temporarily broke alliance with Saudis, I ate -28%.
Those are the two biggies. Oil mistake has already been fully recovered from (trading other stuff). The old dude weed mistake still has some work to do before complete recovery (again trading other stuff, not dude weed). My portfolio ATH was in early 2018 and I'm still a ways off it now.
