I guess that's an intrinsic gotcha of Bitcoin. With all of the decimals, it's quite hard to manually keep track of gains and losses. Plus, with all of the fluctuation, even if you win quite a few, it might still be a loss in the conversion haha!
Sometimes, winning is all heart and not about being smart. It's a fallacy that no doubt boggles even the greatest minds. Luck is that one variability that science has yet to master.
