Yesterday I made a bizarre mistake! I was very sharp and had already managed to increase my Spot by 20%.
I had never set a stop loss wrong, it was a lack of attention because I was doing other things. I lost 30%. My pride made me hold on longer than I should have, but I still managed to sell and buy lower. Then I made more investments to buy. I recovered more than half of the loss. I got out of it this morning and it was the best thing because I could enter and exit others without any problems.
Admitting a loss is always difficult. Losing 30 percent in a single day is like an abusive relationship that you can't leave. I accepted the loss and stopped monitoring it for today at least, and if it's worth it I might even go back, but for now I removed it from my favorites like someone who blocks and deletes their ex-girlfriend from all social networks. Nothing like a much better way to forget about the one who is no good and made us suffer!
