2025 Year In Review: My Trading Journey So Far 🧭

This might be a long read, but if you've been following my posts, sticking through will help you understand my perspective and investment approach way better.

So here's the thing—I'm still fairly new to this game. Started trading about 18 months ago with... (actually, I'd love to walk you through the full journey, how much capital I began with, what I learned the hard way, which trades went sideways, and which ones actually paid off).

Looking back over the year, it's wild how much has shifted. The market threw some curveballs, my portfolio went through different phases, and honestly? Some of my early moves were pretty rough. But that's how you learn, right?

I want to break down the whole thing—where I started, the wins, the lessons from the losses, and where my head's at now heading into 2025. If you're thinking about starting your trading journey or just curious how someone navigates this space, this might spark something useful for you.

Haha, a 18-month newbie still talking about their journey. I feel like you're slowly setting up a story of losses here.

18 months a newbie is still here summarizing experiences, respect. But those losses from rough early operations... how much were they haha Hey wait, did you make money or not? Just talking about the learning process... This is the romance of Web3, the more you lose, the deeper your understanding Long article warning but I still want to see data, don't just talk about mindset How many times can mindset change in a year? Honestly

Bro, you're daring to summarize your life in 18 months, I really admire that. Isn't it normal to have rough operations in the early stages? Honestly, the worst part of these retrospective posts is when the story sounds good but there's no data. Just tell me how much you lost directly, and that's it. Another newbie trying to teach people how to invest... I've seen this routine a hundred times on Twitter. I'm curious whether your "return" is positive or just relative to some disaster. Talking about a complete investment strategy in 18 months is indeed a bit bold. I just want to see your annualized return. Aside from that, your mindset adjustment is pretty good. Admitting that your early roughness already surpasses 80% of people.
