For the last 29 days, I strictly stuck to $BTC TC, $ETH H, and XRP. I rarely touched coins like $PEPE or DOGE—and even when I did, I managed small profits or at worst, near breakeven with just a few cents loss. I was proud of my discipline.

But today, I gave in to greed. I opened a short position on $ALPACA ACA, thinking it was just a small experiment. The trade size was $5 with 5x leverage, using only 1 USDT margin. As soon as I opened it, I closed 50% instantly. But when the price pumped unexpectedly by 20%, I DCA’d in—now with around $5 margin in total.

Then at UTC 9, Binance delisted the coin and the trade auto-closed with a 19 USDT loss.

Just like that, I wiped out over half of my past month's gains. I had earned 35 USDT in the last 30 days—and now lost 19 USDT in one careless trade. Some may say it's a small amount—but for me, it means a lot.

From now on, I’m done with shitcoins. No more experimenting. Only $BTC, $ETH, and maybe $XRP. Or even better—just BTC. Discipline over everything
