Red candles everywhere.
I watched my portfolio crash in real time.
Heart racing.
Palms sweating.
Brain screaming: SELL. NOW.
But I didn’t.
I got up. Boiled water. Made tea.
Told myself:
“You don’t need to decide anything right now.”
By the time I came back, I felt calm.
Nothing changed in the charts —
But everything changed in me.
Sometimes the best trading strategy is: walk away.
Close the app. Breathe.
You don’t have to be a genius every minute.
You’re allowed to panic — just not trade in panic.
Crypto tests your money, your mindset, and your patience.
I didn’t sell that night.
I’m still here.
