Don't remind me again today

#ETH巨鲸扩大持仓 Today while watching the market, I noticed that $TRADOOR has obvious higher trade volumes on the 5-minute chart and feels like there will be a minor trend, so I decisively opened a long order with a capital of 500u at 20x leverage to test the waters.



After entering the position, it went quite smoothly, peaking at 1.8 times, and I directly took out $900. However, I encountered a downward spike midway, and I panicked and closed the position. As a result, I didn't expect that after the spike, it quickly rebounded and continued to rise...

I regret a bit after reviewing; for this kind of short-term quick pullback, I shouldn't have fully stopped loss. At least I should have kept 30% of my position to observe. If I had held on a bit longer, I might have benefited more from the subsequent rally. It seems that I need to stay calm when encountering spikes in the future; I shouldn't panic just because of a pullback. This kind of minute-level fluctuation can be effectively managed with partial stop-losses.

Although this order made a profit, I still feel like I didn't capture the complete minor trend, which is a bit regrettable. The strategy still needs to be optimized, and next time I will try the method of taking partial stop losses.

Getting 900 dollars in hand is great, but it sounds like you're still thinking about the next wave of market trends, typical greed flare-up.

Long Wick Candle and run, typical of a weak hand disease, that's why you can never catch a complete market. Made 900 and still regretting it, I think the key is to practice your mindset, otherwise no matter how many times you multiply, it won't save you. To be honest, playing with 20x leverage so timidly, next time either hold on or don't open, being stuck in the middle is the most uncomfortable.

Close Position to Long Wick Candle, a typical case of shaky hands, $900 is not a small amount, be content.

Another story of missing out on the tail end of the market, haha, but locking in $900 isn’t bad either.

This is called being greedy. You have 900 dollars in hand and still feel it's not enough? If you've made a profit, just take it. You have to eat the whole market movement to be happy? Another one scared out by the Long Wick Candle, that's how contracts are. Only by adjusting this mindset can you lay the foundation for making money, really.

Getting $900 is still not enough for you, your greed needs to be cured.

A typical case of greed, feeling it's still not enough after making 900 bucks --- Long wick candle and feeling scared, this problem needs to be fixed --- Using 20x leverage on such a small coin, that's some real guts --- It's ridiculous, even after making money still sighing, I would have already rug pulled --- Scaling stop loss? Bro, you're thinking too much, in this kind of market you can't react at all --- That's why most people can't do well in short-term trading, their mindset collapses first --- Next time the same situation will still cause panic, stop lying to yourself
