Save this if you trade crypto Revenge trading is the silent killer in crypto. You lose, then immediately jump back in not because the setup is good, but because you need to undo the loss. FOMO is the same thing running forward: chasing a move because you’re scared of missing out, not because you analyzed it. Both are your emotions trading, not your strategy. This is bigger than bad analysis. You can be right 60% of the time and still blow up your account because the 40% losses get “fixed” with bigger, desperate positions. One bad trade rarely kills you. The revenge trade after it usually does. Most people think the fix is more discipline. Wrong. It’s protection. Right after a loss, you’re not seeing the chart clearly you’re staring at your P&L. Every setup starts looking like the one that will make you whole again. Simple rule that actually works: No new position for at least 30-60 minutes after a stopped-out trade. Journal why the next one is truly different before you enter. If you can’t explain it, sit on your hands.
