Many people ask themselves when reviewing their trading records: Why is it always just a little bit short?

Actually, it's not that the opportunity didn't come, but that it didn't stay once it arrived. Every market pullback, every fluctuation, every shakeout—these are all necessary processes for a trend to develop. But these processes often feel like traps designed specifically to test people's resolve.

You might have already caught the right rhythm. The entry point was good, and the coins held are also rebounding. But as soon as the price moves, your heart starts to race. You're afraid of giving back profits if it rises, and worried about misjudging if it falls. In the end, you choose the safer approach—locking in profits early and going to sleep peacefully.

The problem is, the real trend often begins after you sell. The most intense and smoothest upward phases only appear after you've already exited. And as you watch the candlestick chart, you regret and ask yourself: Why didn't I hold on a little longer?

By then, you no longer have the confidence to chase. Your cost basis is long behind you, the price is far ahead, and re-entering requires a lot of courage—something only you know how much you need.

The reality of crypto asset trading is like this: genuine gains never come from simply choosing the right coin— that's just a prerequisite. The key is whether you can endure the necessary volatility in the right direction, hold your position until it reaches the right point. This requires not precise market prediction, but basic trust in the trend and strict discipline in your trading.

Most people haven't missed opportunities because they didn't catch them; they've been unprepared from the start to endure the inevitable path to profits. They make a little profit and want to run, but when the big trend finally arrives, all they can do is leave behind regrets.
