#策略性加码BTC Many people are making the same mistake — bottom catching by shorting, top catching by longing, and as a result, they get wiped out by the market again and again.

Just look at this round of the market. $BTC repeatedly gave three opportunities to short at the key level of 2009, but none of them were successful. The $ADA support level at 0.2 couldn’t hold, and $SOL around $11 kept tormenting traders. $ETH

The problem isn’t with the levels themselves, but with the reversal of the execution mindset. When you should be following the trend, you’re betting on a reversal; when you should wait for confirmation, you’re eager to jump in. The market is so cruel — the more you try to catch the bottom or top, the easier it is to get eaten.

Another one claiming "I understand bottom-fishing"? That's really funny. It's true, but who can really do it?

Really, when will the people who bought the dip until they went bankrupt finally realize it?

Honestly, trying to buy the dip repeatedly is outdated. Those who still play like that are just feeding the whales. Whether to follow the trend or not is the key. A wrong move can ruin everything, and I have deep experience with that. The market doesn't care what you think; it's just waiting to trigger your stop-loss.

Is it the same pattern again, bottom catching flying knives, top chasing high levels, cycling here? --- The mentality of bottom fishing is truly incredible, insisting on hitting that one second perfectly before being willing to buy, but ending up missing every time. --- You're right, we are just too eager to be "smart." --- Wait, did no one really catch those three opportunities with BTC? Feels like someone is just storytelling like cutting leeks. --- Following the trend—I've heard these four words countless times, but I just can't do it, and I'm no exception. --- It's reversed, reversed. When it's time to buy, I shake with fear; when it's time to sell, I become greedy. This market really eats away at human nature. --- It's actually just a lack of disciplined execution. Seemingly simple things are often done the opposite. --- Really, only get in after the trend is confirmed. No matter how fast the speed, it's too late, but that's how you survive longer.

That's so true, I got wrecked like that haha. I always think I've hit the bottom, but then it keeps crashing further.

That's right, the execution approach was flawed, and yet they still insisted on betting on a reversal. Only after the market slaps down do they realize their mistake.
