Any of you jokers get in on Bitcoin way back before it skyrocketed?

Swear if it drops before they reactivate my account, I'm going to join a class action lawsuit. Yeah, ANOTHER ONE.

Evidently they limited my account with ZERO notification. NEVER GAVE A REASON. Just logged in one day and happened to click the little red dot on the notification icon. Said I had to send a bank statement and my driver's license. Would hear back in 3-7 business days. Sent it. Didn't hear back. CALLED (found a number). They said my SCDL was not accepted, for NO REASON GIVEN. So I sent it again.

Swear as soon as I can, I'll pulling every penny out from them and closing that account. I'll buy and sell bitcoin somewhere else. They have my cell number. They have my email. ZERO communication from them ever about this. Freaking awful for a financial service, of ANY sort.

FOMO is a helluva drug

made some decent money on BTC but nothing to retire on. I'll likely never hit any of these "big" moves b/c I still trade / make positions based on how I learned to trade the futures. Once you hit a profit target, take profits.

Sure. I sold BTC around $7k, would've been whatever now. Sold GME at 140 right before papa musk's tweet, would've doubled position or whatever....but you can't trade looking forward based on the exception that skyrocketed and would've let you print tendies. Trade on your strategies and find profit targets that generate positive cashflow and win more than you lose.

There's companies out there all over the place that I'm sure many in y'all's generation missed. Netflix, Apple, Amazon, Google, Tesla, etc. etc. There will always be more opportunities and the Fed still printing so shit's going up.

I'd take 20 profitable trades a year at 15+% all day long before waiting for another BTC, GME, etc. etc.

I also don't have the time to trade as actively as I'd like. There's a diminishing return on trading with my current capital relative to my day job. So I stopped paying as much attention to it and focusing moreso on swing trade, or mid-length, opportunities to find a balance between real work and play money.

I'm getting very bullish on a new options strategy me and some homies are working on that's generating solid returns on a very consistent basis. Low risk, mid cap requirements, looking for that 5-15k / year return. Wets my whistle with trading and keeps me involved enough to feel like I'm doing it.

Now, I've read some interesting strategies around augmenting your gold/silver positions with BTC. I'm starting to do that myself so the comparison for long term returns can be compared to that of gold/silver instead of just gambling looking for those sweet, sweet tendies.

Keep in mind that BTC futures are traded in Chicago now (for about a yearish?). So you're playing with the big boys.
