🎢 Are you a $META holder?

The past 3 years have been a real roller coaster for you!

📊 At the 2018 high, the total crypto market cap was $800M+

Now Bitcoin's MC alone is $1T, and it's still far from new highs.

📈 At the next peak, crypto MC will be somewhere between $5T and $15T.

For reference: MC of gold is $13T+, oil is $2T+, silver is $1T+.

🚄 The world of trading moves fast. Decisions are made in split seconds; and market conditions can change in the blink of an eye. In these conditions, the concept of taking breaks might seem counterintuitive to some. However, it's precisely during these moments, especially when your take-profit or stop-loss orders get executed, that taking a break becomes crucial for maintaining control and perspective and checking the weather.

🔧 Trading is not just about making profits; it's also about managing risks and emotions. The execution of a take-profit order signifies a successful trade, while a stop-loss order indicates a loss-cutting strategy. Both events can trigger a range of emotions, from euphoria to disappointment or frustration. These emotions can cloud judgment and lead to impulsive decisions if not properly managed.

😫 One of the biggest dangers of uninterrupted trading is emotional exhaustion. Constantly monitoring the market, reacting to price movements, and managing open positions can be mentally taxing. When traders experience a series of executed orders, whether they are profitable or not, the emotional rollercoaster can take its toll. Fatigue sets in, and decision-making becomes impaired. Taking a break allows traders to step back, recharge, and return to the market with a clear mind.

⚠️ Another possible danger is overtrading, a common pitfall among traders. The adrenaline rush from successful trades might tempt traders to chase more profits without considering the risks adequately. Conversely, losses can trigger a desire to recoup them immediately, leading to impulsive and irrational trading decisions. By taking a break, one can reflect on their performance, reassess their strategies, and avoid falling into the trap of overtrading.

〰️ Besides the above, one can lose their perspective. In the heat of the moment, traders may become overly fixated on short-term fluctuations, losing sight of their long-term goals and strategies. Taking a break provides an opportunity to zoom out and evaluate the bigger picture. It allows traders to assess whether their recent trades align with their overall plan and objectives.

🧠 Last but most dangerous, continuous trading without breaks can result in physical and mental strain. Sitting in front of screens for extended periods, constantly analyzing charts, and making split-second decisions can lead to fatigue, eye strain, and increased stress levels. These physical and mental stressors not only affect trading performance but also overall well-being. You don't want to look older and lose health, pilot.

✅ Incorporating breaks into trading routines is essential for maintaining discipline and self-control. This way you can detach emotionally from the trades, which is crucial for making rational decisions. Whether it's a short walk, a quick meditation session, or simply stepping away from the screens for a few minutes, breaks provide a much-needed pause to help you process the information about what has happened.

👨‍✈️ So be diligent. If you break down, your airplane will never fly again. Take breaks not to break down. Even machines need time for maintenance. Even the heart needs vitamins and cannot work at a high pace all the time. So you are not an exception to this rule. You have a row of repeating wins or losses, you make a stop. Otherwise, you're heading to emotional exhaustion, overtrading, loss of perspective, and strain. This is not where you should be heading, pilot.

🦉 Did you buy Bitcoin in late 2022/early 2023?

If yes, you must know the 80/20 rule.

If no, calculate how low BTC gets in the bear compared to ATH. The zone near -80% down has the biggest gain potential.

❔Have your friends / acquaintances who are not into crypto asked you about crypto recently?

If yes, we're in the bull market territory! 🐂📈🤑
