After I turned 1700 into 5k with litecoin, I proceeded to go all in Monaco right before a press conference. Immediately lost 25% of my portfolio. That was probably the worst. Also bought ripple at 82 cents all in and sold at 72 cents

Bought EMC2 at a very very low price where I could have easily made a large profit even given the bad news
But then I fomo'ed and bought lots more of EMC2 during ATH
When it came the news I sold too late and could only barely break even

Mine was buying XLM before finding out that it's a literal anti-white pro-whitegenocide coin. I have it confirmed on good authority (my friends on a private /pol/ approved discord channel) that XLM (Stellar Lumens) is a literal anti-white pro-whitegenocide coin

Furthermore, they told me that literally every single XLM you buy pays for one (1) tire and one (1) litre of petrol to be sent to a radicalized anti-white pro-BLM pro-antifa family in South Africa with a handwritten note written by Jed McCaleb which states "NECKLACE ALL WHITE PEOPLE, WHITE GENOCIDE NOW"

I fucked up hard and got margin called for 2 btcs. 7k ea. at the time but now it's worth quite a bit. No regrets as it's better than the slow gradual lost of btc value because I bought alts.

Missing out on the great ALT run. I bought into the diversification meme on the way down and it stayed down until the end of the year. It actually ended up paying off because i'm not an ADHD child who needs to buy/sell something everyday to feel like he's doing something, so i just hodlled and it worked out. But i could've been in a much better position if i timed the market better.
Oh well this year i'm set up a lot better i believe.

>> No.5697818

By the way, in case your holding the big coinbase currencies and are getting antsy about this extended trough of redness, the game is not over with those. Not sell at a loss. Why not over? Because they would have lost a lot more value than they have at this point if investors had completely lost faith. ETH and LTC haven't gotten anywhere near where they were before the big December pump. Only BTC briefly flirted with that territory.

So hang on.

Was staring at a litecoin wall on gdax and right as it was going down someone was annoying the shit out of me to get my attention. I did a market buy late and it pumped up 10% for a few seconds where my buy went then retraced like 25%. Not the end of the world but I went in with my entire stack. Morale of the story don't trade with your entire stack and give people early notice that you need to focus. Anyone else get cucked by gdax spiking violently up and/or down?
