I’ll stop looking at my wallet until March 27th.

I’m back in that phase where I check my portfolios 2–3 times an hour. I’m not a big whale, I have just a few thousand euros in the wallet but I keep staring, hoping something will shoot up like it did back in 2021. Let’s be honest, this habit isn’t healthy. I don’t know how often you look at your portfolio, but I think that sometimes taking a break is a right choice.

So, I’ve decided: no more portfolio-checking until March 27th. That’s the day I’ll decide whether to sell everything or hold on. Until then, I’ll stick to Reddit, trying to guess whether I’m losing money or gaining, but I won’t open any portfolio.

End of March might be a reasonable time in a bull market… or it might be way too early or even too late. Who knows? In the meantime, I’ll focus on training, bettering myself, and spending time with friends.

My wallets are going into hibernation for a few weeks. Fingers crossed, let’s hope for the best.

Have you ever taken a break from checking your portfolio? How did it affect your mindset and decision-making?
