(1) I am a self-taught person. I have been interested in trading for about a year. As you understand, I am a beginner.
More experienced individuals might laugh, but this applies to me and other beginners like me. You've all been there, so please be tolerant.
I wanted to try trading after hearing stories from **very** successful info-sellers in November 2023. Some trades worked out from the start (beginners get lucky), and on the first day, $20 turned into $80. It made me think that I had caught the god by the beard, but the next day, of course, everything was lost to 0, but interest in trading emerged 😄
So. My goal now is: to earn $300 from $30 in 8-9 months. I am in no hurry, I want to delve into it, hone certain skills and develop habits this way.
Here will be my progress, and perhaps it will help me in the future.
Yes, I had a few REALLY bad days in January, one of which I posted about. It was a tough loss.
To be honest, even after the break, my confidence hasn't fully returned yet. I can see this in my doubts about opening a trade, or when I realize that it's not over yet, but I'm ALREADY fixing profits.
Right now, I want to teach myself to take profits in parts, to get used to 'waiting.' But where is that fine line to 'wait, but not hold too long?'
Not everything at once, in short.
I wish you profitable trades and hope you go into the weekend in profit)
I try to focus on the %, not the numbers. When I forget about this, a series of unsuccessful trades begins. There are always few numbers 🤑🤑🤑 #рост $BTC $ETH
Comrades, if someone is looking at the COT reports, can you tell me if I should rely on non-commercial in the long term, am I understanding correctly? I want to use it in addition to the main analysis.
I analyze only on Trading view, because I think that the analysis tools here are made to lure my money:
🔥 panels and graphs of very bright contrasting colors that make dopamine stand out and, accordingly, I really like them. In this way, vigilance and the sense of (self)preservation of my money are dulled.
🔥 jumping price indicator. It 💯 is made in such a way as to put pressure and push to make a decision.
I prefer a calm, favorable environment where nothing distracts, and not the casino effect 🎰
My problems I see with stops - I don't understand yet how to set them correctly (how many) that's why it often knocks me out. Although it's better this way than without them at all. Not all transactions can be in +
(3) Now I am implementing new habits (some of them are basics, but it seemed to me that this is not for me, and I am already doing well and know everything).
First of all, it was decided to start with the amount I have and build a system. Not an abstract one that I "keep in my head" and "I definitely have it", but to gather it brick by brick.
Secondly, read. Constantly. About analysis, building systems, psychology, people's mistakes, etc. To collect really valuable and necessary information bit by bit. In short, to learn. Thank God I know how to learn.
Thirdly, do not donate. Not putting in a single penny until I realize that I really understand what I am doing here, or until the deposit becomes $0.0 and that's it.
Thanks to my new rules, I managed to develop the first positive statistics on trades and increase the deposit from 3.6 to 10.
By this time, I had formed a reasonably adequate and working trading system, and I managed to reach 30. This amount marked the start of this challenge because this is my balance on 01.01.25. And I need time to refine the system and not lose it. #рост #обучение
First, I had to enter a trade for some reason, everything was hitting stop losses, and I had to maniacally re-enter, accumulating a significant loss before it ended. Although it didn't really end - the goal of 'entering' was achieved.
Profits didn't cover the losses. I will look at the end of the week, but this is a D***
In general, I usually remind myself not to trade when I'm upset, but yesterday that moment slipped by, and I don't understand why it happened.
A question to the experienced and old-timers: how did you get through this? How did you overcome it?
(2) #из30в300 According to the comments on post (1), it's clear that the topic is relevant; everyone talks about successful success, but no one mentions the difficulties a person goes through.
The first year in trading brought valuable but painful lessons:
✅the first harsh loss was around 200 (my entire deposit was 250) ✅the desire to "get even" seized me every time, as a series of failures followed a juicy trade. It seemed to me that "I was just about to find that point of support from which it would work, and there would only be such trades!" ✅then came the desire to "quit everything": this cycle repeated an endless number of times ✅the deposit was replenished with the aim of covering the margin while the market turned in my direction ✅I had to sleep with my phone - to check how things were when I woke up (as if I was controlling something) ✅there was 10 left when (!) the thought accidentally crossed my mind: "stop it already! You need to change something or accept it and end this!"
By October 2024, my losses amounted to approximately 396. Due to old habits, the deposit dropped to 3.60. I took a break for a couple of weeks to rethink and make a decision.
It came to realization that being a trader is a profession. It is complicated, and it needs to be learned 📚
I think I should have sold it yesterday at 72, like those people who already made money 😃 and not like me

I bought the coin myself and, of course, I'm waiting!
Analysis $TRUMP: what awaits us?
In my opinion, $TRUMP is not just a meme token, but a project with strong support from Donald Trump's name 🇺🇸. This combination of hype 🔥 and political influence makes it interesting for many investors. However, the cryptocurrency market is always associated with risks ⚠️.
Current situation
Right now, the token is experiencing a correction 📉 after the initial surge 🚀. This is a natural process for new coins, especially meme tokens. For those who bought at the peak 📈, it is important to remain calm 🧘♂️ – such assets often move in waves 🌊.
For new investors
The current correction could be a great opportunity to buy 💰. Trump's name continues to sustain interest in the project, and the political context (for example, elections 🗳️) could serve as a catalyst for new growth 🔼.
Technical analysis
RSI: The indicator shows that the token is close to the oversold zone 📊. This could be a signal for a reversal.
MACD: Currently confirms a bearish sentiment 🐻, but a transition to a bullish trend 🐂 is possible.
Moving averages: Indicate the current downward trend, which could change with an increase in volumes 💹.
My week started productively, I wish you good deals too)
I am convinced from yesterday's chart movements that you need to enter only stable coins, they are not as stormy as others. For example, ATOM started yesterday with ETH the same way, and ended as it ended, it's good that I was smart enough to close in a small minus, and not wait for the stops to be torn off.
Have you noticed that the charts sometimes synchronize? For some time, I had it that by the BNB movements it was possible to predict deals in ATOM with a difference of about 15 minutes, then it ended.
Of course, this can be used sometimes, but you should never leave trading to chance, there should be your own precise analysis for each chart. Even if it does not work, you need to review it and draw conclusions, improve. Then it will start working.
From $30 to $300 Updating my #weekresults Trading was not planned for today, I was curious to see $TRUMP It turned out that at that time an entry for a trade in $ETH opened. Even though I promise not to trade on weekends - I just couldn’t pass it by 😅
❤️ #ETH - one love for me lately. I'm sharing the results of the last deal, not an X of course, but I'm not claiming to be.
In the last screenshot, the results of this week (where everything is green), it could have been more, but I wanted to short twice today, which made everything look like this (screenshot 1)
Images 2 and 3 - my trade. I close not at the specified take profit, but a bit earlier, because it's enough for me to cover the loss and leave with a profit and a peaceful mind for the weekend.
Friends, I wish you profitable trades and a good weekend) don’t forget to rest - it's very important in this business 👋
