💼 Spot Trading Mindset: How to Profit Even in a Market Dump 🧠
Today, I made $31 USDT through spot trading — despite the market being deep in the red, with many altcoins dropping 20% to 25%.
✅ My overall portfolio is currently down 25%, but that doesn't stop me from taking profits regularly, even when my total position is negative.
💡 Here’s the mindset I stick to: it’s not a real loss until I lose my coins, not my dollars. In spot trading, temporary dollar losses can recover when the market bounces back — but if you sell off your coins at a loss or let emotions take over, those assets are gone for good.
📌 I focus on trading within the Top 100 coins by market cap. These tend to move in sync with Bitcoin and generally have a higher chance of recovery when the market turns around.
📊 The key is to stay consistent, disciplined, and trade smart. Profit-taking doesn’t only happen in bull markets — with the right strategy and mindset, you can find opportunities in any market condition.
