😓 Took a Loss Today — But It Taught Me Something Valuable

Just sharing a quick reality check — I took a loss today on a $BTC scalp trade. Entered too early, didn’t wait for proper confirmation, and ignored my own trading rules. Lesson relearned: discipline > prediction.

I’ve noticed that my losses usually come when:
🔻 I trade emotionally
🔻 I try to force a setup
🔻 I move my stop-loss hoping for a bounce

Today was one of those days.

But I’m not giving up. Losses are part of the journey — especially for someone like me who’s still not consistently profitable. I’m treating each red trade as a lesson and trying to build strong habits.

✅ Review my setup before entering
✅ Stick to risk management (1% max loss per trade)
✅ Walk away when emotions take over

Still holding small positions in $SOL , $PEPE , and TRUMP — watching price action and volume closely.

To all my fellow small account traders: we’ll get there. One smart decision at a time 💪
