BUY HIGH SELL LOW

Are shitcoins illegal where you are or something? Just tell them you were doing exactly what you did you stupid fuck. What is the problem here? God this board is full of NPC morons.

>>12527516
Daytrading is considered a "resume killer" because employers worry that you will be doing it on their clock. It's also viewed no different from gambling by most normies.

Fuck man. Same here, I'm very close to the end of the line.

Made a *fuck ton* of money (over 1 million dollars), and basically quite my job and my side businesses to trade crypto full time. Rented a killer bachelor pad and upped my lifestyle substanially. Got a sexy blonde roastie that loves giving me head as long as he keep taking her out to nice dinners.

The problem is I've got about 50k left after 2 years of this. I have enough "runway" at my current lifestyle for the next 2 months or so, assuming crypto doesn't crash further.

Nobody knows, not even my roastie. My mental frame is collapsing from all the stress when I've realized how badly I've fucked up. Huge blank spot on my CV, other businesses basically closed down due to no attention given, and I've paid *zero* tax.

Yes, I am fucked. It was fun while it lasted though. May live with my parents again at the tender age of fucking 31, assuming I don't kill myself or go to jail.

>bitcoin will be stable they said

CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES

Putting all your eyes in one fragile basket is the /biz/ way.

>>12527553
I'm not sure whether to believe this or not. Please do share details of the journey to 1 million, cashing out too which is a major issue for large sums and lastly how the fuck you ate through 98% of your principal capital without investing any of it into real things. You could have boomer'd into some dividend stocks and lived frugally ever after. Or better yet, multi-unit real estate.

>>12527585
Not him, but simply, I was out of the country, out of signal range in the middle of fucking nowhere on holiday when the entire market crashed. I was able to pull like 120k out when I got back but I had lost near a million.

>>12527585
Yeah, what a story. Got in early 2017 before the big boom and put all my savings into it as I saw what was coming. Traded ICOs and shitcoins during the bull all the way up to over a million dollars. Jan 2018 I was on top of the world, I had made over 100k in 1 week alone at the top.

I didn't sell and held most of it all the way down. I tried to time tops and bottoms to swing but kept losing more of my stack. As the market dropped I invested more in shitcoins to leverage up and lost even more. Eventually I was down to a reasonable 200k in October last year, but my mental state was so broken I went all in on some very risk trades just wanting to get back to where I was. I fucked up the BCHABC fork and held too long as the price dropped. I fucked up the ZEC coinbase listing and was dumped on by normies. Finally, I fucked up swing trading Eth and buying it at the top.

I've realized I'm a degenerate gambler and need to stop. I'm trying to look for jobs now but nobody will take someone with 2 years of a black hole on their CV.

>panic buying
Holy shit this is literally one of the worst things you can do

>>12527613
Thank you for sharing.

>>12527585
It's not hard to believe considered most people are financially retarded like that anon. My guess is that he was a greedy brainlet who got a taste of the good life and made dumb financial decisions. He got what he deserved

>>12527621
I never really understood traders. I've only ever went long, really long, on 2 cryptos and mined a third for a while. 99.9% of things are scams that aren't even trying to hide that they're scams, people playing hot potato with Excel spreadsheet entries on a chink exchange that doesn't even have a website. It's absolutely insane. When my third long hold pays off, I'm exiting completely and throwing everything into dividend stocks and property/land and living very, very comfortably.

So noone has somehow managed to spin Crypto trading on their wagie slavery application papers?
I'm blank boys, copy paste what you have in your resume for this shit.

>>12527553
Lol thanks for making me feel good about my shitty life.

>>12527493
Just say you traded assets

>>12527713
Say you traded commodities, and no I don't think saying you traded crypto's will be liked by anyone. Mainly because they're jealous and love to believe the narrative that all cryptos are used for illegal activities and that you're a criminal or a bad member of society and should be frowned upon.

>>12527713
You're not the first anon to attempt this

I'm thinking of active portfolio management of investment commodities/assets

>>12527956
what are you going to tell them when they ask why you're switching?

>>12527962
"Working with these assets was an interesting experience but it was mostly a solitary one and honestly somewhat alienating, I'm more interested in getting back to working with a team in a team based environment and enhance my team coordination abilities"

Some bullshit like that.

>>12527493
Lol. Bogged? You just aren't any good at it. You should go back to work.

>>12527978
I would believe that.

>>12527655

>>12528607
Lol no.

>>12527496
Kek!

>>12527553
If too, holy FUCK you done goofed. You literally could have retired if you were smart with your money.

>>12528696
*true not too
Somehow I feel you're full of shit, anon

>>12527956
What jobs are you even going to apply for?

>>12527553
you truly are a dumbfuck
how could anyone at fucking 30, be unable to think long term? this is what happens when you don't use your head properly

>>12527553
You chose roastie over money

>>12527493
You should have been working still until you cash out and have the million bucks sitting in your bank account. Only then do you quit and go full neet.

>>12527493
You spent two years day trading and gained no marketable, useful, usable skill in the blockchain hype wave that is following the crypto piñata destruction? McJob it is then, at least it's mentally easy and you get free meals.

>>12527947
>>12527713
Say you went backpacking in Europe and then make up a couple stories ahead of time of things you pretend you saw to tell employers.

>>12527493
Also op you should’ve put some money in fixed deposit, way better then shittocurrency

>>12528843
Yeah, did you make 1 million dollars in crypto? Then shut the fuck up. Just because your 50 bucks went to 5k and back doesn't mean you can judge me.

>>12527493
don't ever put shit like "self employed crypto trader" they'll see you as a clown and retard

Just put shit like Market analysis, Owner of private investment fund, Fund manager etc. you have to state real skills. Also DON'T EVER state how much money you made, you can do shit like "outperformed market by XXX %"

t. This is literally me and I learned from mistakes, so you better avoid them too. Goodluck out there anon

>>12527493
You do realize the stock market exists right retard?

>>12527493
Say you were a statistical analyst in an emerging market. Next.

>>12527553

The problem is that you didn't think long term enough and let your euphoria cloud your strategic thinking. Let this be a great lesson to you (as it was also for me).

>>12527493
The time to get a job was early 2018 bro. There is no hope for you now. Have fun saying in interviews you spent 2+ years trading shitcoins and coming up with obvious BS about the great skills you learned doing so.

>>12527553
Total larp

>>12527553
This board is full of retards like you. Hodling coins doesn’t make you a fucking trader you faggot that makes you a cucked investor. You won’t make it unless you understand how to scalp and swing trade for fiat. Hodling is for reddit faggots

what are you long in? Personally I'm in AGI myself.

Not sure why this guy is getting hounded, 95% of this board held through these insane losses.hell 95% of discords and telegrams did too.

>>12529794

I wouldn't call it retarded sense it is normal human instinct. People who get luck in trading and then lose some will panic buy to get back the euphoria from being on top. This behavior is seen in gambling,drugs, business owners allsorts of people the succumbed to their emotions and can no longer act rationally.

>>12527493
wow, just say you were running your own business

>>12527493
Made up landscaping company that is now out of business any retail stores that went out of business
