Physical pain can be healed, but mental pain is lingering and smoldering. In trading, what kills you the fastest is not the losing orders, but the fear in your head.
Fear makes you:
Constantly doubting yourself.
FOMO when the market pumps.
Panic when the price dumps.
Pressing the cut-loss button yourself, just to 'free yourself' from the torment in your mind.
And you know what? The moment you cut losses to 'free yourself' is also the moment your money flows into someone else's pocket – those who have already planned, those who understand the psychology of the crowd.
They are not afraid. Why?
They have a clear plan.
They hold SPOT, not all-in futures with crazy leverage.
They know the market can be pushed down, but it will also turn around.
As for you, it is your impatience, lack of discipline, and fear that ruin your account.
Trading is one of the harshest professions, where psychological pressure is heavier than in any other field. But there is only one way to survive:
If HOLDing spot → be steadfast, don't let the chart keep you awake.
If trading futures → set stop loss, discipline like a machine.
The market is neither right nor wrong. It simply does its job: transferring money from the impatient to the more patient.
👉 Final lesson: Learn to accept, and only take risks at a level you can tolerate.
