From experience the worse is if you are up like 100% and didn't sell out and lose it all as you blame yourself for being greedy. With a result like this there is nothing you could have done differently as nobody could have predicted the result. I find when a I do make punts like this it's mainly from profits from other stock so it lessons the blow. Try not to use any savings or other assets to fund such speculation punts. Craziest things I've heard is people selling their house to punt in Lithium stock because they are 'Believers'
