I hear you, I see it frequently with traders who amass quickly to then lose it even quicker.

In my instance, I spent a lot of time with this friend of mine (myself with a few 100 at a time, himself towards 700k), they made it sound easy and a cake walk. Alas, liquidations galore and a shrug of the shoulders as their reaction was all that happened. Rough.

Hope your now enjoying some reward for that hard work!
