The challenge has reached its fourth day. In the first two days, due to not being calm enough while watching the market, I blindly chased shorts which led to a stop loss, and with another failed operation, I lost over 300 USDT in just three days. My mindset has taken a bit of a hit.



I spent the whole day waiting for opportunities, becoming particularly picky—afraid of being washed out by the market again. Finally, I came across a decent opportunity just now. Although the entry logic was good, I still missed the sell and watched the profits continue to run.

Reflecting on the market trends of the past few days, the biggest issue is that the consecutive losses have made me hesitant, causing me to miss out on many opportunities. After the pattern was disrupted, I became overly anxious about each entry, which is actually more damaging than a direct liquidation.

Next, adjustments need to be made from two aspects: first, recalibrate risk tolerance, and don't let consecutive losses hijack decision-making; second, have a clearer understanding of market manipulation and learn to survive during fluctuations. The challenges are still long, let's start again!

Once the loss mentality collapses, it's all over. This realization hits harder than losing money itself.

Over 300 USDT disappeared in two or three days, this mindset is really devastating, it's truly more painful than getting liquidated.

On-chain data shows that the underlying reason for this wave of losses is a psychological defeat, which is more fatal than the Candlestick itself. It is worth noting that in a state of anxiety over gains and losses, even the most precise logic can be undermined by disappointing execution, which is why I always say that 80% of trading is psychological.
