I Paid for Signals & Still Lost Money
You Probably Think Then What Went Wrong
The signal was perfect. Entry, leverage, stop-loss, take-profits, DCA levels, everything laid out.
Signal provider followed it. Made profit. I followed the same signal. Lost money.
Same information. Different results. Here's why I failed:
Panic Before Stop-Loss
Price dropped to $2,410. My stop was $2,400. Got scared and closed at $2,415.
Then $ETH bounced to $2,500 and hit TP1. I was out with a loss.
Closed Winners Too Early
Hit TP1 at $2,500. Signal said take 50%, hold the rest. I closed everything.
It ran to TP2 and TP3. Left massive profit on the table.
Impatient Entry
Entry was $2,450 limit. I bought at $2,460 market. Started with a worse entry.
Risk-reward was destroyed from the start.
Skipped DCA Out of Fear
Price hit entry 2 at $2,430. Signal said add more. I hesitated. Too scared.
Provider added, averaged down, and made more profit.
The Real Problem:
Signal was perfect. My execution killed me.
Trading isn't about having the information.
It's about having the discipline and emotional control to follow it.
Now building that discipline on demo. Learning the mental game, I skipped.
What would you have done at $2,410 — trusted the stop-loss or closed early?
I'm sharing these lessons daily, so we all grow stronger.
