✍️ Loss in crypto... it's not a matter of numbers, it's a psychological issue above all.



1️⃣
One of the saddest stories in crypto was in August 2024…
The day Bitcoin reached its bottom and started to rebound upwards.
His first peak in the new cycle was at 73K
Then he returned to achieve the bottom of August.
At that time, there were people promoting with tweets:
"Get out with a 90% loss… Bitcoin is heading to the thirties… Sell your coins and buy from the bottom."

What happened?
What has not come down for the thirties...
It reached and set a new peak above 90,000.
This moment has been lost to those who sold at a loss.

2️⃣
The strange?
After the market rose sharply...
The same people started promoting the purchase!!!!

We had a rise in November at that time.
And they are talking after exiting in the same area basically.
Well, the one who sold at a loss of -90% at that time...
And he went back in again...
What's his situation now?

3️⃣
Last month the scenario repeated.
Many people promoted going out on a loss...
And I know that most people's losses have exceeded 90% for the second time.
Because the decline was significant after the drop last February and October.

Those who tell you: "Look at the loss to save a 25% drop"
The psychological aspect is never understood.

4️⃣
Let's be realistic...
If you enter with 100,000 riyals and your balance becomes 3,000 riyals:
How do you compensate for 100,000 a second time?
Even if you are smart and think "outside the box".

And if you spoke to the person who advised you to go out and said to you:
"Your rise saved you from a 25% drop"
And you try to understand from him how to compensate...
It gives you twists and turns, and in the end, it's a block.

5️⃣
But if you wait...
And you know that your currency is an excellent project...
Even if it takes 6 months or a year to get your capital back.
Over time, you will have profit.
And your mindset will be stable and strong.

As for those who sell at a loss of -90%,
And he ends up with very little cash (3% or 7%)…
enters a state of high tension:
What to buy?
Where does it enter?
Is he waiting?
And does he not make a mistake and go back to sell at a loss?
And the vortex repeats... and the money completely disappears.

6️⃣
Summary:
The subject is more psychological than it is artistic.
A big loss breaks the decision-making mindset.
And getting out of a loss is not always a "solution".
Because the real challenge is not to get out...
The real challenge:
Can you go back, buy, and continue?

90% of people cannot.

And that's why...
I say it in brief:
Going out with a big loss = an impossible psychological challenge to recover from for most traders unless a 50x miracle happens and luck is on your side.

I wish good for everyone and to stay away from losses ❤️
