Who here feels they have a handle on their emotions when it comes to trading or holding?
I think it's an area that many people like to feel that they've mastered, but if they saw playbacks of their actions a while down the line it would be screamingly obvious that they haven't.
To give a personal example I have a few XEMs. A few months back I was looking to consolidate all the crypto threads I had lying around so looked into selling a sizeable chunk as they'd been pretty stagnant for a while.
Being a bit dim and easily distracted I forgot about it and so stuck around for a 20-25x rise. Had my concentration held I probably would've gotten rid of them and would now be wailing and puking. In that particular case boredom and impatience nearly got the better of me.
There are countless examples on this forum of people declaring things dead or emphatically stating that such and such price will never happen again and giving up. Same goes for people going all in at the peakiest of peaks.
Have you yourself found your emotions tripping you up or are you an emotionless trading terminator?
Emotion control is important part from trading world, if you don't have it never enter the market. If you can control your emotion it means you can still follow and obey your rules, even you fail, you only get loss in minimum number. One of the best way to control emotion is leave the market when price reach our stop loss/ take profit point and never go back again. I already do that and even sometimes still loss, my capital is grow up slowly but sure.
