A trader's worst nightmare almost happened to me. 𤯠My Plan: A small, calculated long on $SOL with a 5 SOL position size. My Mistake: I was distracted and accidentally typed 160 SOL, creating a ~$30,000 position instead of $800. I didn't notice until 10 minutes after it filled. By pure, dumb luck, I was up $223 and I closed it immediately. My heart was pounding. This wasn't a win; it was a near-disaster. ā ļø This is your reminder: ALWAYS double-check your position size. A single typo can liquidate you. NEVER trade while distracted. #LUCK is not a strategy. Stay safe out there. #CryptoTrading #RiskManagement #TradingMistake #SOL
TRADE UPDATEā¼ļø: The $INJ long position has been closed.
It gave us a solid attempt to rally but couldn't sustain the momentum. The price has retraced to our entry, and the break-even stop has been hit. In a market this choppy, a zero-loss trade is a victory. #Capital preserved. ā
So close you could taste it! š¤ My $LINK long was just a hair's breadth away from the Take Profit target before the market decided to pull a 180.š¤¬
My break-even stop did its job, and we're out with zero loss. A frustrating end, but protecting #capital is the name of the game. š”ļø We'll get 'em next time.
TRADE UPDATEā¼ļø: The $ORDI long position has been closed out at my entry pointš.
It gave us a nice bounce, but failed to show convincing strength. My break-even stop did its job perfectly. In this choppy market, a trade that doesn't cost you anything is a win. Discipline over hope, always. š”ļø

TRADE UPDATEā¼ļø: The $VIRTUAL long gave us a nice run-up š, prompting me to move my stop loss to entry.
The market has since pulled back and tagged me out for a clean break-even. Happy to walk away with my capital intact. A risk-free trade is always a win in my book! š”ļø
You know that feeling when you're in profit but the market feels like it's on thin ice? That's me right now.ā ļø
That tariff news dump last Friday still has things looking shaky. While I'm grateful for 9 profitable positions, I'm not taking any chances.
ACTION: All stop losses have been moved to break-even. My capital is now 100% safe on these trades. Now, we either hit our targets or walk away with zero loss. That's a game I'm willing to play. Stay safe out there!
