"Top 5 Mistakes I Made as a Beginner Crypto Trader"
When I started trading crypto, I thought I’d become rich overnight. I followed influencers, chased pumps, and bought green candles. What could go wrong?
A lot. Here's what I learned the hard way
❌ 1. FOMO Trading : Fear of missing out made me buy at the worst possible times. I entered trades late and exited in panic. FOMO is the enemy of profits. ❌ 2. Ignoring Stop-Losses : I thought stop-losses were for weak hands. I was wrong. One trade wiped out 40% of my portfolio because I didn’t set a simple limit . ❌ 3. Following Hype Instead of Research : I chased coins just because they were trending on Twitter or YouTube. Most of them crashed within days. Now, I always DYOR. ❌ 4. Overtrading : More trades = more profit, right? Nope. I ended up making bad decisions and paying more in fees. Patience is a superpower in crypto.
❌ 5. No Exit Strategy : I never planned when to sell. I watched my portfolio go up 200% — then crash 80%. Now, I always take profits on the way up.
✅ The Lesson ? Crypto trading isn’t just about charts. It’s about discipline, mindset, and planning. Mistakes are part of the journey — but you can learn faster by learning from others.
