Don't remind me again today

I opened a small account at the end of the month, starting with 560U and it has nearly doubled to 929U now, showing a profit of 369U.



To be honest, I have seen too many cases of big players getting rich, and I have also crazily doubled my investments with large positions, but I could never hold on. In a moment of impulse, I would go all in, and when I got too excited, I would face huge losses. Later, I tried the "security captain" strategy — taking profits when I earned, but in the end, I still lost everything because my mindset collapsed. After thinking it over, it seems like I am the type of person who is suited for slowly grinding with small funds; going all in with large positions really isn't for me. I guess I'll just take it step by step.

Today, the main operation is on the pip coin. Actually, I could have earned more, but I was too greedy and didn't strictly follow the stop-loss discipline. The worst part is that this coin made me experience a drawdown of over -30%—the 5-minute chart clearly indicated a drop, but I stupidly canceled the stop-loss order and stubbornly held on during the entire plunge. When it fell to the 15-minute support level, I rushed in to buy the dip, but ended up canceling the stop-loss again, thinking "it’s just going down to wash out the positions, it will bounce back soon." The third time was even more absurd; the 1-hour chart clearly hadn't dropped enough, and I rushed in again to catch the falling knife.

Three operations, each time feeling anxious as if afraid of losing money too quickly. This habit of chasing highs and selling lows, being unable to stay calm, really needs to change. Moreover, I still hold the spot of this coin, and the pressure at that new high position is clearly very heavy. Even if it really breaks through, I think the space is limited, not as promising as the neighboring Bull Head project.

The current capital volume is still small, so it's relatively stable to operate with a single currency for now. If I open two altcoins at the same time, I might be directly killed by the impulse mentality. Although some people say "get on the bus first and analyze later," this approach really doesn't suit someone like me who is impatient.
