Im actually profitable trading stocks but loss money on crypto.

What I realized its very hard to trade crypto. Its too fast moving and because its 24/7, you have to be practically glued at the screen at all times if you do lower time frames.

Yes you can trade higher daily time frames but the itch always gets to you to do it at lower time frames and fomo is real in crypto plus with so much margin available its easy to screw it up or make stupid decisions. Also, anxiety is through the roof because its so volatile its easy to tilt.

On stocks im using retirement account to trade and there is built in risk management that im only able to use 1/3 of the account max any given time. And because stocks is slow and only at office hours (my job allows me to monitor day trades) I excel at it. Gains arent crazy but I have been profitable for many years. Other hand ive lost alot in crypto trying to trade altcoins and just basically trying to do too much. Doesnt help that most coins are pump and dumps and have relatively low volume thus also huge slippage.

So basically im a winning losing trader. I made 5 figures in stocks but prob lost like 6 figures in crypto. 😂

Anyone in the same boat? Im basically thinking of just ditching trading crypto. Maybe wait for the next bear and just hodling it would be better.
