🎯 "You're not losing until you sell" — A LIE that cost me everything 🚫📉
— Farhan's Story
4 years ago, I jumped into crypto.
Everyone around me was shouting:
> "Binance is the move! Buy this coin! That one’s going to the moon!" 🚀
I didn’t know better…
I listened.
And I went ALL IN — $12,000 of my hard-earned savings. 💰🔥
At first, it felt like I made the right move. Quick gains. Portfolio in green.
Confidence? Sky high.
Then the crash came. 🧨
Everything I bought tanked.
But every voice around me repeated the same thing:
> "You only lose if you sell."
So I held. And held.
And I watched my money bleed — slowly, painfully.
Reality Check:
HODLing doesn’t protect you — it traps you.
If I had used stop-losses? I could’ve cut losses, stayed agile, and moved into better plays.
But I didn’t. I waited. I believed the lie.
And it cost me. Deeply.
💡 My way back? A coin called $SWRV.
Wild swings. High risk.
But this time I had a plan:
✔️ Stop-loss
✔️ Limit orders
✔️ Clear exits
It wasn’t perfect.
But it gave me a grip. A second chance.
📚 Farhan's Lessons:
✔️ Don't follow hype — it's not a strategy.
✔️ "No loss until you sell" is just wishful thinking.
✔️ Stop-loss is your seatbelt — wear it.
✔️ Study the game — don’t gamble, strategize.
✔️ Your money is your grind — protect it like your future depends on it.
