I still remember the day I saw $LUNA crashing hard, its chart looking eerily similar to other coins like $OM that had dipped and recovered before. My gut said, "This is it—the ultimate bounce play."
### What Went Wrong?
- I gambled, not invested. I threw money in based on pure chart patterns, ignoring the fundamental reason behind the crash.
- No exit plan. I kept hoping for a miracle bounce, refusing to accept the reality of a death spiral.
- Emotions > logic. Fear of missing out (FOMO) took over—*"What if this is the bottom?"*
### The Harsh Reality
- LUNA wasn’t just dipping—it was collapsing. The tokenomics were broken, the peg was failing, and panic selling was unstoppable.
- Patterns don’t always repeat. Just because $OM or others bounced, didn’t mean LUNA would. Every crash has its own story.
- I lost more than money. Confidence, peace of mind, and the painful regret of not doing my own research (DYOR).
### Key Lessons Learned
✅ Never trade a crash blindly—understand WHY it’s falling.
✅ No hopium exits—set hard stops and stick to them.
✅ Charts lie. Fundamentals don’t. A pattern is meaningless without context.
✅ FOMO is a silent killer. If you don’t know the reason behind the move, you’re the exit liquidity.
### Moving Forward
I won’t lie—the loss hurt. But it taught me one of the most valuable lessons in trading: Respect the market, or get wrecked.
Never again. 🚫
