How many coins have you sold out of for a small gain, and then they mooned like crazy the very next day? I'm up to 5, and I only started a month ago.

>> No.6002670

>>6002012

I just posted this in an other thread. Here's my advice.

- Dont buy shilled coins. Do your own research on technology you think is interesting. If you think it has potential others will too. People on this board will recommend anything.

- Buy low sell high. This sounds obvious, but if you go in red you need to have strong iron fists and hold on to your money. It is likely it will regain its value if you didnt buy shit.

- Read up on trade graph pattern. Because other people follow patterns it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. It is very important to look study these, or else you will keep making the same mistakes.

- Don't FOMO trade. Dont buy coins that are mooing. Ignore missed oppotunities and don't let the results of coins you didn't buy influence you.

Best of luck.

Happened to me the other day with Tron, and back a few months ago with Walton.

With WTC I had a sell order, and B2X got cancelled and every alt pumped massively and I got bought to low and missed out. Ruined my day.

With TRX I thought it was gonna dump again like it always does after Pumps. Been kicking myself all week about it.

Damn that's harsh. This is why you need to diversify. So you can entertain yourself flipping around 1k on shitcoin pumps while your main investment waits until the true moon.

I made the mistake of going all in on raiblocks at $34.50. I’m riding it into the dirt though. No more panic selling, no more fomo. Raiblocks is either going to double my money or cut it in half. Either way, I’m here to stay until it seems completely unsalvagable.

Yeah... I've done this far too much. I've still made pretty nice money though.

Because of this experience and the amount of cash I have I can hold a lot more comfortably. That pressure to sell early hits a lot harder when it's 20% or more of your portfolio.

Best way to avoid this, once you've found a good entry, is to set a stop loss, set sell orders and just not looking at it. I usually sell 25% where I think first major resistance is and 50% on the second then let the rest ride for ever
