The longer you stay in the encryption asset market, the more you understand this truth: the real battlefield of trading is not in the market data, but in your mind.
Have you ever experienced this situation—watching the coin price soar, feeling anxious about missing out and rushing in, only to be slammed back down as soon as you turn around, and in a panic, you cut your losses and escape? Or finally, after buying at the bottom, seeing your unrealized gains grow, but the moment there’s a slight movement in the market, you can’t sit still and quickly run away with a small profit, only to look back and see that the market has already taken off.
The encryption market has never been a straight line. Sometimes it skyrockets in one direction, and other times it tortures people repeatedly within a range. Those who can make stable profits here in the long term rely not on luck, but on a kind of "I remain unshaken" composure.
Don't let short-term fluctuations mess with your mind. When the market is oscillating within a range, don't be anxious and avoid frequent trading. Wait for trend signals to appear before taking action; this is much more reliable than entering the market blindly. If you have a floating loss in your position, don't panic. First, calmly think about whether your trading logic still holds. If the logic is sound, give the market time to react; if the logic is indeed wrong, decisively cut your losses. Acknowledging mistakes in a timely manner is itself part of making a profit.
The market is not short of opportunities; what is lacking is the patience to stay true to one's original intention and the discipline to follow through on promises. Don't be greedy when prices rise, and don't panic when they fall. Treat each fluctuation with a calm mind, and don't let greed and fear take control of you.
Remember one thing - what you want to earn is not the daily small profits, but the dividends given to you by the big trends. You must endure the fluctuations of the market to wait for that big market trend that belongs to you.

To be honest, the mindset is the hardest part. I gradually understood this after being played for suckers repeatedly; momentum investing is truly a terminal illness.

You're not wrong, mindset is truly a killer weapon. I am the opposite example of chasing the price and Cut Loss; I was smashed so many times last year before I understood... Now I'm just holding tightly and not looking at the charts.

You're right, it's a mindset issue. I'm also the kind of person who plays people for suckers at the bottom and regrets it only when it hits the limit up.

You are absolutely right, it's really a psychological game. A couple of days ago, I almost got shaken out, but fortunately, I held on.
