Spot Trading Mindset: How to Profit Even in a Market Collapse 🧠
Today, I made $31 USDT through spot trading — despite the market being deeply in the red, with many altcoins falling by 20% to 25%.
✅ My overall portfolio is currently down by 25%, but that doesn’t stop me from taking profits regularly, even when my total position is negative.
💡 Here is the mindset I maintain: it’s not a real loss until I lose my coins, not my dollars. In spot trading, temporary dollar losses can recover when the market rebounds — but if you sell your coins at a loss or let emotions take over, those assets are gone forever.
📌 I focus on trading within the top 100 coins by market capitalization. These tend to move in sync with Bitcoin and generally have a higher chance of recovery when the market reverses.
📊 The key is to remain consistent, disciplined, and trade smartly. Taking profits doesn’t only happen in bull markets — with the right strategy and mindset, you can find opportunities in any market condition.
