Trading helps you learn a lot about yourself, your emotions, and your patterns. If you have experienced trading loss in whatever form, do not be discouraged. Rather use it as a motivation to strengthen your resilience by adapting to a new approach.
Words are much easier compared to action. I know all of these - I have a master degree - I am mid aged man with family, still when experiencing market pressure nothing helped me on preventing losses like I have been acting like emotionally driven trader and nothing will save me except trading. When you are aware of that you can recover your losses from other recourses then you will take your crypto trading losses light and will not keep trying to trade again and again. When you are emotionally dominated and chasing your losses then nothing could help you.
You already know how it is with the crypto markets, one has to be persistent and allow our hard-earned experience guide us toward future success.
To enjoy the fruits of our own experiences, we need to be emotionally stable but trading will not let us to keep our nerves down. Emotions are triggered and then we forget everything and do act like a naive trade and will bite the dust.
