The hardest part in the crypto market has never been technical analysis, but human nature.
When others are FOMO-ing, you need to stay calm and wait for the real signal to appear. When the opportunity comes, don’t hesitate—act decisively when it’s time to enter the market. Heavy position? That’s fine, but only if you truly understand the situation—don’t mistake luck for skill.
The position-holding phase tests your discipline the most—when the market is swinging wildly, you need to stick to your strategy and logic, and not be swayed by short-term volatility. As for stop-loss and take-profit, there’s nothing to agonize over—exit when it’s time, lingering will only expand losses or erode profits.
Simply put, trading is all about discipline. Only those who can control their actions and steady their minds can survive in this market for the long run.

It sounds nice, but when it really matters, who can actually do it? I haven't seen many people who can.

It sounds nice, but when it really matters, you still get cold feet.

It sounds nice, but how many people can actually do it? I'm the kind of fool who still can't bear to cut my losses when the time comes.

What you said is true, but actually putting it into practice is really tough.

Haha, that's right, you have to be ruthless. I’ve suffered from FOMO before, but now I’ve learned my lesson.

Discipline is easy to talk about, but very few can actually do it.
---
"Leave when it’s time" really hit home. I used to lose big just because I couldn’t bear to cut my losses.
---
Before going all-in, ask yourself if you truly understand. Don’t fool yourself.

Controlling your desires is much harder than reading candlestick charts—that’s the real trap for most people.

The longer you delay cutting your losses, the more it hurts. Cutting early lets you live to see the next opportunity.

That's right, but most people simply can't do it.

That's right, it's all about discipline. Back then, I just couldn't control myself, and I'm still paying the price for it now.
