Hi all! All I could say in one phrase. All hopes and dreams just got crushed.
![All hopes and dreams got crushed!](https://sgsnsimg.moomoo.com/sns_client_feed/104790792/20240730/1722336275064-random4432-104790792-android-org.png/big?area=104&is_public=true)
In the beginning of July month, I was so excited that I am finally able to beat the market hoping I am able to reach the road to financial freedom
.
Then during the Trump assassination attempt, Biden stepping down, all this political uncertainty had made me crushed all my dreams.

However, all is not loss here are some of my lessons on what to do the next time I were to trade.
1. Create a stop 🛑 loss
The problem with me being a long term investor is that I don't know how to stop loss. All I can think of is stonks only goes up.
2. Top up more cash and buy
the dip. Sell if your indicators tell you there is a peak
All I could say is I had seen the peak several times but did not take the profits at a loss kind of think. If you know what I mean. Got too greedy and decided to wait longer until all goes up.
3. Do not be overconfident with the fundamental.
$Celsius Holdings(CELH.US$ is a great fundamental with hypergrowth story. Unfortunately I had caught myself in the fundamental bias and did not take profit going greedy trying to the 80 and 90. To the Moon ![]()

. Next time take your 1% profit. A profit is a profit.
Overall: I'm not giving up I will be adjusting myself and do more self care ![]()
to cope with the losses.
Hope you are well to those who are in the loss. Don't give up you are able to reach your goals one day.

Aaron Invests (AI) OP 104665615 : Is easy to share glory and profits than to share losses. Thank you for the encouragement. I am still Learning and reading all my bad news post. I just prove that I don't sugar coat my opinions.
CasualInvestor : There are ups and downs in trades. Most importantly question the Whys and move forward. It’s not uncommon for most traders to lose money.

Why do most traders lose money? Maybe I should start a channel on this topic?
