We should always have this mentality as a trader that trading is a profit and lost business we do even though there seems to be a form of regular profits we should always think that one day lose can likely happened and we can't avoid it when it coming.
Now how does it come? Good!
It comes when a trader is proving to know it all or wanting to apply professionalism in their trades then it would automatically turn against them causing a severe loss and even to what they didn't expect of them could likely happened because they aren't cautious of their trades.
Yeah, when a trader start being too comfortable then chances that he might made a mistake and start losing his money, it's best to take time and not to rush anything always anticipate and make sure to have a alternative plans in case things ain't working according to how you anticipate things having good plans and managing both time and finances will help to keep you in-line with how trading works, and same with how most traders do just have that patience inside you then you may take good care of how you adopt and adjust with each situation that you need to face while inside the trade.
The alternatives I think that would help is just to keep holding bitcoin or some other reputed altcoin, even as that i don't really encourage anyone to hold any coin that they don't trust on otherwise there could be a tendency to lose them big time because they aren't doing their proper research towards that coin/tokens. Holding shitcoin is not also means that is an alternatives but when solely relying on bitcoin to hold as alternatives also matters alot when trading doesn't favor someone.
