I already learnt I'm not cut out to trade / swing. but now im crucifying myself with regret and thought-cycles of "if only I'd done this" and "if only I'd done that". its killing me

I could have sold all my LINK at the top, take my BTC to Binance and convert it to USDT, and place it all in a huge buy position at 40 cents or even possibly lowrr, right before that idiot whale tried shorting LINK to 0.

I could have had over 10x the amount of LINK I have now, how do you think I feel? I didn't do what I just described because I didn't THINK to do it!

have you heard of memory reconsolidation, anon?

Many have been here and much worse. You can find a way to get a handle on your emotions and stop swinging and stop risking in garbage coins that make you nervous as well.

Gosh I could write a lot about this.

t. Was sectioned in 2018 after crypto insanity and loses. Got my head right and rich again now.


OP, tell us your total stack/portf right now and other finances. This question can't be addressed in isolation of those.
