**Loss Recovery Journey – Post #2**
Assalamualaikum and greetings, fellow traders!
Just five days ago, I shared my goal of recovering a $2000 trading loss on Binance. At that time, my portfolio had dwindled to just $270, but I set my sights on reaching $2500 by year’s end.
Now, here’s the exciting update—my portfolio has surged to **$460**! That’s a **70% increase** in less than a week. The last three days, in particular, have been phenomenal, far exceeding my initial target of $5-$10 daily gains.
There’s still a long road ahead—around $2000 more to go—but this progress has reignited my confidence!
For those navigating the markets, here are a couple of hard-learned lessons:
1. **Be cautious with leverage**—5x or 10x max, or better yet, avoid futures if you’re not experienced.
2. **Spot trading is the safer route**—buy near the 24-hour low, aim for a steady 2-3% gain, and let patience work its magic.
Stay disciplined, trade wisely, and let’s keep pushing forward!
