Today's portfolio took a hit—down 50%. That's a tough one to digest. But you know what? I'm stepping away from the keyboard right now. No point staring at charts when emotions are running high. Tomorrow's a fresh start. The golden rule I'm sticking to: no panic trading, no revenge plays. Those split-second decisions usually end up costing more than the original loss. Sometimes the smartest move in crypto is just putting the phone down.

Really, I should have learned long ago to put down my phone. Last time, I was staring at the candlestick chart until I went crazy, and in the end, I lost even more.

The hardest part is putting down the phone; I can't do it every time.

nah this is where most retail gets liquidated tho... the discipline part's easy to say when you're down 50, but wait til it bounces 15% and watch the fomo kicks in lmaooo

50% directly die instantly, this mentality is really desperate.

Putting down the phone has really saved me several times; otherwise, I would have been liquidated long ago.

I've learned the trick of putting down the phone a hundred times, but I never last more than two hours each time haha

Putting down your phone is truly a genius move, more effective than any technical analysis.
