Lessons from Experimenting: Wrong Sizing, Life-Changing

Back then, I was obsessed with finding new strategies to try. I thought the $NVDA market was volatile enough to absorb any mistakes, so I tried sizing my position in a way I'd never done before. I just wanted to see how much it would explode if I bet big. And it did explode, but not in a good way. It was a complete disregard for my own Risk Management. In the end, I was dragged until I had to cut with a painful loss, just like my ego was crushed along with it. The lesson is, no matter how good the market looks or how confident we are in our system, maintaining consistent Money Management and Risk Management is the most important thing. It's our walking stick, not an oil rig.
