Horizontal consolidation wears down the mind, fluctuations disturb the soul. In recent times, the crypto market seems especially fond of harvesting those who think they are clever.

Open the candlestick chart, and you'll find the market playing "hide and seek"—when falling, it won't break support levels; when rising, it won't break resistance levels. Sometimes it's so boring you could fall asleep, or suddenly a sharp move shocks you with cold sweat. What exactly is going on here?

Don't overthink it; this isn't your problem. This is a carefully arranged "anti-human nature trap" set by the market main players, specifically targeting retail traders' psychological weaknesses. Having watched the market for many years, I always see this kind of script before major moves.

**Are you feeling the same lately?**

The day before yesterday, BTC dipped near $42,000, and you hesitated and sold half your position. As a result, it turned around and surged to $43,500, leaving you with a regretful leg.

Yesterday, SOL surged to $100, you got excited and chased in, only to be hammered down to $95, making you start doubting life.

Thinking of waiting for a clear signal before acting, but the market froze, with such small fluctuations that you couldn't even cover transaction fees.

Finally, you force yourself to clear your position, and immediately it pulls a bullish candle, coupled with a headline about "market recovery," pulling you back into the market.

This is definitely no coincidence. The main players use "volatility therapy" to test retail traders' patience, with one goal—to make your emotions lose control. When your emotions are led by the market, the main players' goal is achieved.

**Why go through so much trouble to manipulate human nature?**

In fact, the main players' intention is clear: to break the emotional consensus of retail traders. When have you ever seen a major move driven by retail traders?
