I can tell I've had those PTSD that haunted me for weeks I just couldn't do anything about it but now I don't feel anything about it the same way like I used to.
The PTSD is real when you're into stocks and crypto, like it'd terrorise you on a random day and you'd keep on thinking about it whenever you're going to make a decision.
the PTSD has ruined many traders
The bear market PTSD has haunted many traders that they have missed an entire bull run due to that fear of losing more money after making one wrong decision.
I remember it was my first bear market when ftx, Luna collapsed and we went so down that everyone thought we'd never see sun shine onnus again.
But the moment market startee showing up strength I had my doubts that I couldn't be real. It'd go down after a pump and that'd take whatever is left.
That was the PTSD that has drowner many traders in an ocean depths. If I had to make choices again, it'd be those where I lacked because of that PTSD and I'd be so better place and position than I am today.
the only time you do better is when you feel nothing
Imagine having no PTSD, you'd outperform everyone you know just because your brain has no fear, you've no doubts and what ifs.
It happened to me back in 2021 bull run when I had zero fears and started from zero.
I did pulled over $10k from zero just by trading without any PTSD but lost it the following year when bear market started.
And it brought so much PTSD that I still couldn't recover from it but now I do feel nothing about it and I guess that's what everyone needs
To not feel anything at all and you'd be in peace while making decisions, it'd be more clear and you can just blame yourself if things went wrong again.
I wonder if this PTSD is similar to those who were in wars, I could say it is close cause losing your networth also haunts as being in wars.
But I believe we human are suppose to get over with it and own our PTSD, don't let it control you but you're the one making sure it guides you in a better way that's the only way for redemption in this economy.
And I guess I have no more PTSD about markets, I could just start fresh and make decisions like there's no past, no history. You're just one day away from locking in and moving on from the things that quite scares you everyday. I wonder what's your opinion about it, do share in the comments.
that's all folks.
