In the face of discipline, even the most sophisticated technical analysis seems powerless.



There is a heartbreaking saying in the crypto market: out of ten newcomers, nine lose so much they want to cry. This is not an exaggeration. The data is right in front of us—over 80% of participants leave in their first year due to losses, with the loss rate for newcomers in their first year being a shocking 79%.

But do you know? The root of these losses often does not lie in not understanding the candlestick chart, nor in missing the opportunity, but in being defeated by two words: impulsiveness.

**The Nightmare That Began with Blindly Chasing Prices**

What is the most common scene in the market? The community is filled with profit screenshots, and news about all kinds of "hundred times coins" and "thousand times coins" is overwhelming. Many newcomers become flustered in such an atmosphere. Seeing others making money, the fear of being left behind instantly overwhelms rationality.

So I dumped all my funds in at once, and even added leverage. What was the result? In less than 30 days, the principal shrank by more than 70%. Such tragedies are replayed every day in the crypto world.

**How deep is the trap of human nature?**

Ultimately, it's FOMO at play. Seeing others making money, unable to hold back, and in the end, it leads to defeat. This is not losing to the market, but losing to one's own greedy heart.

Although the liquidity of Bitcoin attracts large whales to enter the market, the real test for retail investors has never been on the technical side, but whether they can restrain their desires. Disciplined and undisciplined individuals will end up with completely different outcomes in the same market.

The mindset is the most hardcore.
