#TradingMistakes101 ‼️🚨 3 Crypto Mistakes I Made (So You Don’t Have To)
If you're reading this, you're probably curious about crypto.
But let’s be real - crypto isn’t just gains and Lambos.
I made some dumb mistakes early on.
❌️ Mistake 1: FOMO Buys
I used to chase every green candle.
A friend says “Buy now before it pumps!” and I’m emptying my wallet like a slot machine. Problem ⁉️
I bought at the top every time.
Lesson⚡️: If you hear about it on TikTok or Twitter, it’s probably too late.
Now, I do my own research and wait for pullbacks.
❌️ Mistake 2: Ignoring Gas Fees
True story:
I once tried to send $20 worth of a coin…
And the gas fee was $48. 😩 I paid it.
Lesson⚡️: Always check fees first - especially on Ethereum.
Use lower fee chains
❌️ Mistake 3: Not Taking Profits
I turned $40 into $320 with a meme coin once.
But I held it, thinking it would hit $1K. Guess what ⁉️
Rug pull. Back to $5. 😶
Lesson⚡️: Take profits on the way up.
Even just 20% - lock in wins and thank yourself later.
✅ What I Do Differently Now
I use stop-losses
I track my portfolio weekly
I focus on coins with real-world utility (not hype)
I think long term — like years, not hours
