Recently, these trades have been making me a bit uncomfortable.
Originally, I planned to exit steadily, but then a mysterious order suddenly filled, and I watched helplessly as a position that should have been profitable was wiped out at the breakeven price. Then, after getting caught in a losing position, I lost my composure and sold other coins to add to my position and average down, but that air coin was still sold at the bottom when it hit its lowest point.
What’s even more painful is KASH. After waiting so long for it to double and recover, I impulsively chased in again, and now it’s basically back to zero. This series of actions is truly a textbook example of the opposite of good trading—chasing at high levels, losing control of my mindset, and not being firm with stop-losses.
The only bright spot is $ROLL, which I bought a few days ago with 500U and just doubled, so I managed to recover a bit. It seems that sometimes, profits really do depend on projects with real value to save the day. The biggest lesson from these mistakes is: be cautious with orders, be decisive when adding positions, but most importantly, keep a steady mindset.

This is the fate of retail investors; once their mindset collapses, everything is over.

Look at this move, that part of KASH was really amazing. Doubling your position and still daring to chase in?

Emma, this KASH is really amazing. As soon as I chased the high, I knew something was going to go wrong.

I knew I was doomed the moment I placed the order
It's again a mindset issue, honestly it's still greed
ROLL doubling saved my life, nothing else to say

Once the mentality collapses, everything is over. We share the same problem.

KASH really shot himself in the foot this time haha.

Chasing highs is the devil, I believe it.
---
$ROLL saved you a lot, a valuable project is like insurance.
---
Placing orders really requires a long memory; one slip and it's gone.
---
Lowering the average cost is the easiest way to flip, very true.
---
The feeling of zeroing out is really tough, keep going, brother.

Just saying to stay calm isn't enough; you have to truly be able to do it.
