Let’s be honest. We’ve been here long enough. We’ve opened trades on hype, held coins through 90% dips, and told ourselves “long-term” every time a coin didn’t move.
But here’s what I’ve learned after months on Binance — and maybe this will hit home:
---
🔻 The Real Reasons We Keep Losing:
• We have no real plan.
Most of the time, it’s emotion. Green candles = buy. Dump = panic sell.
• We go all in.
Whether it’s $SAHARA, $NEWT, or whatever coin is hot, we throw 80–90% of our funds in one shot.
• We chase pumps.
A coin goes up 800%, and we think “it’s just starting.” But often, we’re the exit liquidity.
• We don’t set stop-loss.
We enter thinking, “it will bounce back.” But when it doesn’t, we’re too deep to exit.
• We don’t track our trades.
We remember our wins, forget our losses. That’s not trading. That’s denial.

🧠 The Mindset Shift That Helped Me:
Treat Binance like a business.
I write my rules down now: max 5 trades/week, never over 20% in one coin, stop-loss every time.
I use Notion or Excel to track my entries, exits, wins, and lessons.
If I can’t explain why I’m in a coin, I shouldn’t be in it.

This isn’t financial advice. It’s just what I’ve learned the hard way. If you relate — maybe this is your reset too.
Tomorrow I’ll post how I look at Spot vs Futures — not theory, but how I use both depending on coin behavior.
