I lost over $1,200 by panic selling $SOL – learn from my mistake😤❗
This one still stings.
The Painful Mistake:
• Bought 15 $SOL at $140 – Total: $2,100
• Market dipped 20%, and I panicked, selling at $1,800
• Immediate loss: $300
Then it happened…
$SOL surged to $180
That same position would’ve been worth $2,700
I didn’t just lose $300 — I missed out on over $900 in potential profit.
What I Learned the Hard Way:
• Volatility is part of the game
• Dips are not disasters — often, they’re buying opportunities
• Time in the market beats timing the market
• Patience pays off in crypto
• Emotional decisions are costly
My New Rules Moving Forward:
• Stop checking charts constantly
• Use alerts to reduce impulsive actions
• Focus on long-term trends, not short-term noise
• Hold with conviction during bull runs
