I lost 24k in one trade back in 2018. Overall, I've lost over 100K because I either got greedy or panicked. Now I just HODL and auto invest.

🚨 Lessons from Losing $6.5k in Futures Trading 🥲💪

Today, I lost around $6,500 USD from my futures wallet.
It’s painful, no doubt, but instead of dwelling on the loss, I’ve decided to treat it as an expensive but valuable lesson. Here are the key takeaways:

1. Greed Is a Trap

I thought I understood this, but now I feel it. Greed clouds judgment and leads to poor decisions. Discipline and clear targets are non-negotiable.

2. Money Isn’t Everything

A significant financial loss shifts perspective. Money can be earned back, but time, health, and relationships hold far greater value.

3. Stick to Bitcoin

If I had focused on Bitcoin instead of chasing altcoins and risky futures trades, I’d have tripled my portfolio. Consistency and patience often outperform high-risk gambles.

4. You Can’t Predict the Market

The belief that I could outsmart the market was naive. Even the best traders operate on probabilities, not certainties.

5. Build Something Real

I wasted hours staring at charts, which added no value to my life. The best investment I can make is in my own business, where I have control and can create lasting value.

Final Thought:
Let money work for you—not the other way around. This loss was costly, but the lessons learned are invaluable. Here’s to smarter decisions and a brighter future! 💪
