When Siravich started investing in cryptocurrencies through futures contracts, he was super excited about the booming market. He jumped right into it without any research or a risk management plan. The cryptocurrency market was quite volatile, going up and down pretty fast. Siravich got 10x profit at one time but also lost around 1/5 of his capital in the end.
Have an investment plan and follow it because if you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.
Siravich’s goal for the next 12 months is to build a community on Facebook. He’s also working on building a trading strategy that suits him.
