Should I take a proper break starting now, or wait until Jan 1st to reset my trading mentality?

Honestly, I think I need a real mental detox.

Here's the thing—I'm pulling 100-200 SOL daily, but then I blow it all away plus another 20 SOL on top for the most ridiculous reasons. Like, the mechanics are solid, but my decision-making when things go sideways? That's where everything falls apart.

It's a pattern at this point. Win big, lose bigger. The money itself isn't the issue—it's the discipline and emotional control. Maybe I need to step back and actually think about what's driving these losses before I jump back in.

Bro, your questions are a bit unnecessary... Take a break immediately, what are you waiting for, New Year's Eve? --- Wait... 100-200 SOL stable withdrawal? You gotta teach me that mechanics. --- It's that old habit of making profits and then wasting them, I've seen too many like this, ngl. --- Don't think too much, just cool down for two weeks and then decide. This time of year is the easiest to get carried away. --- What sounds good is detox, but actually it's just being overwhelmed to the point of doubting life... I get it. --- I really suggest stopping now, don't give yourself psychological hints about things like waiting for New Year's Eve. --- The thing that lowers your quality of life isn't the 20 SOL you lost, but the greed that follows. --- Honestly, taking a break is more beneficial for you than continuing to gamble with a higher win rate.

ngl this is a classic case of self-sabotage, no matter how much you earn, it's all in vain Wait, earning 100-200 SOL daily and still losing money? Bro, you're gambling, not trading Rather than waiting until January 1st, it's better to stop now. Think carefully before making a decision A broken mindset is more terrifying than losing money, really

ngl this is a typical case of earning happily and losing even more happily. When to rest is always late. Stop now. --- Waiting until January 1st? Bro, by then the principal will be gone, what's the point of resetting? --- Really, if you don't correct your emotions, resting for any length of time is useless. Better to calm down now. --- 100-200 SOL income then all in again plus 20, I just want to know what kind of magic spell is so powerful. --- Don't wait for the New Year, stop now and clear your mind. --- Isn't this a typical gambler's mentality? Winning makes you want to double up, losing makes you want to break even. This bad habit can't be changed even at the end of the year or New Year. --- The word discipline you mentioned three times shows your true feelings are just these three words. Why not just implement it now?

Honestly, this is just a gambler's mentality. Waiting for January 1st? It should have stopped already.

ngl This is a typical "I can afford to spend because I earned" mentality. You need to break immediately, don't wait until the 1st. If you keep waiting, your mindset will be ruined. --- Earning 100-200 SOL per day is indeed impressive, but losing 20 or more in return... Brother, this isn't a mechanism problem, it's brain damage that needs fixing. --- Wait, are you saying that after earning, you still need to put in more money? Then you should rest even more. This isn't trading, it's gambling and addiction. --- Win big, lose bigger... I've seen too many of these. If you don't break, by this time next year you'll still be asking the same question. --- Don't talk about the 1st. You should stop now, or you'll be chasing losses on New Year's Eve. Trust me. --- The mechanism is solid as hell? Your problem is written all over your face — you just can't control your hands, bro.

The data shows that it's just a mindset issue... earning 200 but losing 220. This repetitive pattern should have stopped long ago. But wait until January 1st? Let's wait a bit longer; the historical lows haven't even been reached yet.
