Haven't been checking the market much over the past two weeks, only glancing at it when I think of it. Not really in the mood to open positions—every time I do, I lose money. But at least without leverage, the losses are manageable. Ever since I turned bearish, the only profit I made was during the drop from 12.3k. Forget chasing longs; I shorted BTC and set my stop-loss at the previous high of 11.75. Gonna take it easy for a few more days and wait until after the rate cut on the 18th to trade again.
Did some reflection on why I haven’t been going long—it’s purely a mental and emotional state issue. Physically and mentally, I’ve been feeling off, no energy to focus on trades or even look at the market. This lack of focus makes it hard to shift my mindset, leaving me stuck in a passive position. But the market is full of opportunities, so there’s no need to rush. As long as I still have chips on the table, the possibilities are endless.
After coming back, I went to see two senior psychiatrists at the hospital. Both recommended medication for depression/anxiety. I was initially resistant to taking meds, but when things get really tough, it’s hard to self-regulate. So I got prescriptions for two meds to keep on hand and will start taking them if things get particularly bad. But I’ve also come to understand that, in the end, it’s up to me to work through this—step by step.
After all, how many truly catch the deer? Who knows if we’re dreaming of fish all day long.
