3 days ago, I opened my first position on $SOL at $186, aiming for $200.
Then… the nightmare began. In just one night, the market turned bearish, and $SOL dropped faster than I could imagine to $173
No stop-loss, limited budget, and a mental disruption. I kept averaging down, pulling my entry to $180 while my original margin increased 3x.
It felt like a real roller coaster — but in the end, I closed with my biggest futures profit ever.
Lesson learned:
✅ Wait for a confirmed reversal before going long in a bearish market.
✅ Only trade assets with strong fundamentals and strong conviction
I just closed this trade and promise to myself for better risk management on every trade.
How do you handle situations like this? 📉
