*Article contributed by Mary Ann Callahan.

After a relatively slow 2018 and the beginning of 2019, the second half of 2019 has seen some major growth in the bitcoin market. Nearly every major asset is experiencing growth and making investors a lot of money. Many assets are up around 100% or more over the last 12 months, silencing some of the crypto critics out there.

It’s called the “gambler’s fallacy”.

If you want to avoid losing more money in games of chance, investing, or on other kinds of financial decisions, this is one more lesson that you need to learn.
