Well again I want to thank everyone for the advice. I won't be paper trading because I'm like a kid with fire but one of the lessons I have taken to heart is to not put all of my trading capital into one trade. I will split it up into 1/5s and I won't use all 5 unless I see five trades that I think should happen. I avoid the fomo buys where things are peaking and I buy dumps.
I'm not really sure if those are solid rules for gains but in my head it makes sense which is what I went for in poker. Also I look at the order books. I'm not sure if this is a profitable strategy but so far in the very short term, statistically insignificant term it has been profitable.
One thing I learned regarding my emotions is that I really wanted to buy something (because I saw all those gains) then I need to not buy it and if I really want to sell something because I'm seeing these losses (barring news that means I have to sell) then I need to just do the opposite. Again I could be right or I could be wrong but that's how I see it right now.
