š° Day 2: Flipping $1 to $1,000 Using $LTC /USDT ā The Hustle Continues
> āAll I need is one good trade⦠right?ā
ā Me, coping after watching LTC drop 2% while I blinked
---
Welcome back to my gloriously delusional but strangely fun mission: turn a humble $1 into a glorious $1,000 trading only $LTC /USDTāno leverage, no altcoins, no cheating. Just vibes, chart-staring, and praying to the crypto gods for some irrational price action. š
If you missed Day 1, TL;DR:
Started with $1, did a scalp trade on LTC, and finished the day with $1.14. Not quite yacht money, but heyā14% in a day? Hedge funds cry for less.

š Morning Analysis: Litecoinās in the āDonāt Blinkā Zone
LTC was sitting around $70.80 this morning, looking indecisiveālike it wanted to pump but was waiting for BTCās permission.
My plan:
Watch micro-support zones (like $70.40)
Wait for volume spikes and breakout confirmation
Only trade when momentum screams āGO!ā
Spoiler: I didnāt wait. I YOLOād. Again. š

šø Trade #1 ā The Scalperās Regret
Entry: $70.62
Size: $1.14
Exit: $70.73
Profit: +1.7% ā Now: $1.16
I snuck in during a mini-retest of the 50 EMA on the 1-minute chart. Watched the candle do its little wiggle. Got cold feet. Exited too earlyāthen watched it run to $71.20. Classic.
ā Profit? Yes.
ā Satisfaction? Absolutely not.

š§ Mental State: Lightly Deranged
Trading with $1 is a strange thing.
Every move feels huge⦠and yet tiny. Like, a 2% gain is only 2 cents. But thatās also a 2% gain. And if I do that 50 more times, compounding⦠suddenly Iām cooking.
But wow, it tests your patience.

š Trade #2 ā Got Trapped in Chop City
I tried fading a wick on a quick LTC spike:
Entry: $71.18 (bad entry)
Exit: $70.89 (cut the loss fast)
Loss: -0.5% ā Back to $1.10
This one hurt. Emotionally more than financially. I thought I was catching the topāturns out, I caught a falling knife... by the wrong end.
Lesson: Donāt trade against momentum just because the candle looks ālong.ā
