Lost $30k in trading in the past 3 years or so. At the highest point my account reached $75k before I blew it all.
Now I’m down to only $9k
Biggest reasons for failing = poor risk management, impatience, fomo and position sizing. In a nutshell I had no system I was aimless trading purely on emotion with insufficient market knowledge.
A secondary source behind my downfall besides my lack of trading psychology was my laziness - I tried to have others do the homework for me instead of doing it myself. I was too co dependent on trade alerts , other traders interpretation of charts etc..
Now I’m on a journey to radically change my trading mindset for the better with the aim of recovering my loses and becoming consistently profitable.
In spite of my significant financial blunders in the market I’ve never felt despair or the need to give up. I have hope that I will win in the long run.
If your story is similar to mine I would like to hear your thoughts on how you failed and how you made it out.

Purchased 200 shares of $CELH at $25 and sold prematurely before the massive move up. Was eager for a quick flip but became impatient.
Luckily I bought back in at a higher price 😅500 shares at ($26.60)
Swinging this one till at least $35 .
This one look like it can explode.
