So many times I see threads that say "I sold at the peak and bought at the bottom." They are usually followed by a reply like "pics or it didn't happen." Folks that trade Bitcoin frequently sound like the gambling addicts at the casino near my home. It's a fairly big complex and it was built by gamblers money. I don't begrudge someone entertainment, but when they tell tales of their big winnings, they usually forget to mention their huge losses. For many it is a problem.
You can talk about your theories and systems. Every gambler has one or two. I really wonder though if the real big winners are only the scammers. Here's the point of this thread:
1. Please post a story of a loss.
2. Why you feel you lost.
3. What you think you learned.

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

I shorted bitcoin after the turnaround @2. After I made 700% roi with it before. Lost it all.
Reason was paying attention to the speculation forum and overconfidence.
I learned not to spent attention to other users post personally. Don't use the gut feeling ever.
