#TradeStories

When I first started spot trading, I was driven purely by hype. I’d chase green candles, jump into coins trending on Twitter, and sell at the worst times. My portfolio? A rollercoaster. Gains one day, deep red the next.

The turning point came when I bought a small bag of $LINK during a dip—not based on hype, but after doing real research. I set a clear target and stuck to my plan. A few weeks later, I exited with a clean 40% gain. That one trade taught me more than any YouTube video: discipline wins.

Since then, I’ve focused on trading only a few coins I understand, using simple TA and always setting stop-losses. I still make mistakes, but I trade with purpose now—not emotion.

Lesson? Spot trading isn’t a race. It’s a series of decisions. The more intentional you are, the better your edge.
