Title: How do you cope with the FOMO? Or realizing you missed out?
Post by: SL18 on December 18, 2017, 03:30:54 PM
I recently sold my alts on thursday or wednesday for some BTC. While btc had a good 25% run my alts would have gains 100% during that same span (especially this weekend...).

I know I'm not the only one, I'm not the first and I'm not the last one to have missed an opportunity.... but what do you tell yourself when you see all that money that you could have made?

Now many alts are the ATH and I'm guessing it is not the right time to buy (buy high sell low... lol)

I tell my self there is no loss nor profit until it's in fiat and in your bank account...

Just looking for some opinions... sorry if its in the wrong section... didn't know where to put it

I believe this situation happened to most of us, I encounter this plenty of time. Just move on, it is difficult to catch the right price to sell. Who knows BTC will go for another 2x run anytime soon.

Well, FOMO is unpleasant. The problem is you don't realize it is a FOMO most of the time. Making a rule to never buy after a day's surge over certain percentage may be a good rule, but you have to be disciplined.
