I also bought Straight Path too so I still made more than I lost. Also you win some, you lose some that's how it works

Bagheld JNUG for a week and half during its recent decline, thinking it was overdue for a rebound, and lost 20%.

I never recovered in the stock market.

I went on to invest in crypto and made 40% in my first two weeks.

Moral: stock trading is for fucking cucks. Crypto is unbelievably so much better its almost insulting.

-900 on RTTR. I haven't.

posw was a stupid gamble but now it actually seems it was a good investment, could have been worse if I invested in bitbean or a real memecoin that has no real world applicability. I'm confident my posw losses will turn into a x3 profit it's just a matter of time, frustrating to see that I'm missing out on other opportunities though

Worst trade:

After weeks of careful trading, I opened a margin long position on ETH/BTC, with ETH at 0.0595, high leverage
invested 2/3 of my total capital. Was tired, forgot stop-loss. Over night, BTC went up by almost 10%. ETH crashed to 0.045. Several margin calls and forced liquidations.
Half of my savings wiped out.

Lesson:
Tired? STOP TRADING. Sleep. Eat. Think.

Optimism:
My arbitrage bot suddenly yields big time. Can't believe my luck.

also no more margin trading against BTC,
only X/USD and X/EUR, never X/BTC.
