    Guess a fair portion of people losing their shirts now are people who "learned to trade since 2020". If you endured 2000 and 2008 then you know the routine.
     
  5. My personal survey shows at leas 89% got out with massive profits, and only pretended to hodl so they would not lose face.

    Like how everyone bought ETH and BTC at < 5000 and never added any . Same jenyus

    As they say, rising tide lifts all boats, regardless of one's skill. It's only in the bear market you're truly able to prove your mettle.

    I can only speak for myself. Cut losses quickly and stuck with my plan to buy stocks that were going up.
