Yesterday, I made a trade on BTC/USDC and ignored my stop loss — that was my biggest mistake. After touching 97K, the price dropped back to 94K, and I panicked and closed the trade at a larger loss than planned. My entry was based on a simple moving average breakout, but I had no clear exit plan.
This trade taught me something valuable: "Profits teach patience, but losses teach discipline." If I had respected my stop loss, I would’ve taken a 3% loss. Without it, I lost 6%.
Now, before every trade, I write down one rule: "A trade without a plan is a gamble." Today’s loss has become tomorrow’s experience.
