Well anyways I sold my .02 for around $140 at the time roughly 1 month ago give or take. And since then it has went up over $100 in value... smh
Am i just unlucky or does the bitcoin market follow my transaction history and only pump when I am out?

In my opinion, this is a normal situation. You urgently needed money, so you sold your 0.02 BTC at the market price and bought a dryer.
I guess that you were much more upset when your 3 BTC (!) which you kept on an unnamed website have lost at one day. It seems you were really unlucky.
People who trade crypto currencies on exchanges often fear of missing out like you. You did
not have to sell your BTC at this time, because the Bitcoin mining reward halving comes and the current trend is positive.
