I missed out on the second round of the market rally, and instead got hammered yesterday. Only in hindsight do I realize how stupid I was—seeing a popular coin perform well at the open, I happily sold all my other holdings, thinking to concentrate my funds and go all in. And what happened? After multiple buy and sell operations, I lost seven figures just like that.



What hurts the most? It’s that unacted-on Shandi position, which rose 27%. If I had held on, I would have already secured those three consecutive limit-up days yesterday. Now it’s too late to regret; I can only accept the lesson and lie flat.

The real problem is this: greed. When you see a hot coin rising, you want to go all in, but that’s actually the easiest time to stumble. Trading works like that—you think you’re making smart decisions, but they often turn out to be the biggest mistakes. From now on, I won’t believe in that notion of “I can definitely seize this opportunity” anymore. Market lessons are costly, and I’ve paid enough tuition this time.

This is the cost of going all in. I also paid a lot of tuition fees... Watching the price hit the daily limit makes me itchy, but in the end, I went all in and got hammered instead.

This is a typical case of chasing the hot and ignoring the cold. I've also done such stupid things. Always all in and all-in, greed can really kill. 27% slipping away from your fingertips, the most painful lesson indeed comes just like that.

It's the same old trick again, going all-in on hot coins is the best... I've fallen for it too, really, one time is enough.

Uh... was I really out of my mind at that moment?

Losing a seven-digit amount is heartbreaking. But to be honest, I was already lost the moment I went all in; that's the most common way to die.
