I keep re-iterating the misconception that there is a need to constantly lose your port to secure an even higher port All that trauma isn't necessary if the path to the biggest of your wins was principled. Unfortunately, if your path was riddled by gambles that lacked fundamental depth/strategy. You'll inadvertently lose everything. If you build a larger port, your asymmetric bets should be of lower size compared to your port imo. Say you make 100k on one play. Immediately scale out 50-60k out of crypto & make a mental note never to bring back in money you've taken out. Also, in your best interest, stable 20k and only play with 20k The risk of ruin you've eliminated by that difficult action is unprecedented. It resets your brain in ways you cannot understand You'd notice that even the 20k you now have to play with will intoxicate you. You'll be lured into the deception that an asymmetric bet with 2k for a 100x is an easy 200k usd - knowing fully well it doesn't work like that Likelihood of burning through half of that 20k is infact high before you check yourself. Now imagine you're burning through 100k that way - it'll lead to tilt and you'll burn the whole XXX bands. Keeping your port is about putting systems in place that control/check the emotional side of you. Actions like : 1.) Stabling a huge stash 2.) Putting money in your actual bank 3.) Keeping only a small percentage of your networth in your trading wallet 4.) Journalling your actions daily and the emotions that lead to them Etc These will all help you curtail the stupidity that will rear it's head from time to time. It is more about you than the players you are against. You're your own biggest threat. On a final note, gamblers win fast and lose it faster. It is the way of the world If you as a player have consistently employed strategy and you think it is slow. Wait till you start winning frequently and you'd find out the stories about losing it all multiple times won't exactly apply to you. Keep showing up and keep dealing Mr Waller.
