"The hardest thing in life is not about how much money you can make, but how to keep your mind calm and live the rest of your life in a simple and carefree way". This is a quote that I think can inspire us as people who spend almost all of their time trying to make as much money as possible by trading or other jobs else online or offline. The above quote is from the famous actor Chow-yun-fat that I found online.
We know that the price of bitcoin is never stable and very volatile. When we are involved in the market and have invested most of the money, it is almost impossible for us to just leave it without paying attention to the price on a regular basis. Bitcoin price fluctuation affect trader more or less psychologically, so it is true that there is an unknown mind burden in it that make it difficult for us not to stare at the monitor, especially when price are dump.
What will you do so as not to burden your mind with bitcoin price fluctuation? We all know that currently the price of bitcoin has fallen by as much as 47% from ATH.
I always advise a few things to newbie traders or traders who are unable to find the right path in their trading. Actually, the truth is that most of the traders are directionless they don't know why are they in the market. The simple answer of "making money" isn't really a valid answer. What you should actually have with you is a plan. A plan on
how will you grow your wealth in trading and
how much you want to grow it? The moment you set your expectation from the market and then you start to trade you will know that what is the peace point for you. Just make that much and let the market burn or fly to peak you don't care. This is the only way to be peaceful in trading. Also, be ready to take a loss too and define this loss percentage too. Just like any other business this business too, comes with certain inherent risks. Accept the risk and be ready to face a loss.
1. Make sure you define what you are ready to lose which will not disturb your mental peace.
2. Make sure you know how much is the maximum you want to earn, Remember there is no endpoint to your greed so set a realistic expectation.
3. Get out of the market for a certain period immediately after you either make it or lose it.
These are secret mantras that can help anyone stay peaceful along with trading too. Also if someone is still holding a position from 47% ATH until now, he isn't really a trader he is just a person who thought he is a trader but now he is a long-term investor.
