Mindset Breakdown#
Recently, I have been silent on Twitter for a long time and have stopped updating my status, and I believe everyone can guess the reason. After losing $300,000 in the TST incident, only $50,000 remained, which rose back to about $140,000 through PVP operations, but I lost $100,000 in alpaca trading, returning to zero once again. Continuous losses for two years (with $600,000 in 2024) have trapped my cryptocurrency operations in a vicious cycle: losses lead to a breakdown in mindset, low emotions, and subsequently, anxiety leads to worse decisions, exacerbating losses. This article aims for deep reflection, not complaints, to identify the root causes and break free from the predicament.
Review of Operations#
Looking back at the loss experience, on the surface, it seems to be due to market volatility and bad luck, but upon deeper examination, personal issues dominate. Operations lack planning, often placing orders based on intuition without setting stop-loss points, like a headless fly. A slight market fluctuation triggers stop-losses, followed by chasing highs and lows, resulting in unclear losses. After losing money, emotions intensify, leading to blindly following trends, chasing popular projects, and heavily investing in "insider" information; the more anxious, the more chaotic, and the more chaotic, the greater the losses, completely governed by emotions.
Repeated losses trigger self-doubt: from the initial quick recovery to later numbness, I began to question whether I was being eliminated by the market and doubted my suitability for investing. In endless self-blame, I chose to give up—watching videos, playing games, going out to have fun, temporarily numbing myself with dopamine, refusing to review losses, allowing losses to expand, resulting in even greater losses.
Always wrong, always losing; one mistake leads to another. To this day, I cannot let go, often reflecting on the missed big opportunities in the quiet of the night. After years of aimlessness in the cryptocurrency world, I have not achieved significant results. Now, I have completely given up.
Writing this, I realize I must change. Short-term losses are not scary; what is scary is being stuck in this state continuously. I must pull myself together, redefine myself, and start anew! This article is my new starting point and commitment: no longer to be bound by losses and giving up, but to take responsibility for myself. Investing is a long-distance run; emotions and mindset are the equipment, and I must fix the equipment before I can run far.
If you are also in a similar low point, I hope we can work together to get out of the predicament. If you have successfully made it, please share your experiences and advice; I would greatly appreciate it!
Possible Issues#
- Is the position too heavy? The market is not lacking in opportunities; there is no need to heavily invest in a single trade, as leverage has little room for error.
- For alpaca and TST operations, can we change our mindset and consider making money in less crowded places?
Lessons Learned#
- Reduce leverage and the number of trades; take profits when earned. Initially, I deliberately limited trading, but now I don’t; trading feels like an annual opportunity. Not setting stop-losses has become the norm, but holding onto losing positions feels like dying once.
- Continue to study alpha and find a suitable track for myself.
- Position management is crucial; gradually accumulating profits feels better.
