#数字货币市场洞察 Year-end sprint, but it's even more important to stay true to your principles



As the year draws to a close, many traders start to review their annual returns—did you make a profit or a loss? More importantly, can you hold onto your winning trades at critical moments?

The trading market has always been like this: when others are greedy, you must learn to be fearful; when others are fearful, you need to dare to act. Neither greedy nor fearful—this is the key to surviving until year-end.

But in reality, most retail investors fall into several classic traps:

First, after entering the market, you can’t hold on once there's a shakeout. You build a position you’re optimistic about, but a small pullback makes you waver, and you end up selling at the lowest point.

Second, lack of independent judgment. You buy because others are buying, and copy strategies just because everyone seems to be making money. Without your own thought framework, you’re just dragged along by market sentiment.

Third, vague strategies, no discipline in taking profit or stopping loss. Buy long at the peak, sell short at the bottom—always trading against the trend.

Fourth, price aversion psychology. Seeing a coin has already gone up several hundred times, you hesitate and miss out, not realizing that real opportunities often lie in the ongoing upward wave.

How many of these apply to you?

If you keep repeating the same mistakes, your capital will only shrink. There are still opportunities before year-end—the key is to change your trading mindset: shift from emotional to strategic trading. Want to earn more before the New Year? It might be worth taking a hard look at your trading framework.

If you've ever sold at the lowest point, raise your hand, I'll go first 🤐 --- You're right, but how many people can actually do it? I'm the type who sells as soon as there's a shakeout. --- It's the end of the year and you still want to make a comeback? Better adjust your mindset first, everyone. --- Independent judgment sounds easy, but as soon as the market moves, you lose your composure. --- No matter how good it sounds, you still can't escape human weaknesses.

nah the real recipe is knowing when to let the simmering stop before it boils over, most people just panic-taste too early

I've cut my losses so much that I've become numb—this is my 2024. Everything happened to me, especially that price aversion... Watching SOL soar from a few bucks to where it is now, I thought, "Why buy when it's this expensive?" Ended up missing the whole wave—a hard lesson learned.

I've cut my losses so many times that I'm numb. Now I feel sick just looking at the charts. Seriously, I've experienced every single one... Especially that price aversion—watching SOL skyrocket right in front of me, but just couldn't buy in. I told myself not to be greedy or afraid, but the moment the price drops, I lose control. I just can't crack this code. BTC is going up again, and I'm still asking where the bottom is. Take profit and stop loss? For me, it's just chasing highs and panic selling—truly a reverse genius. It's the end of the year and I still can't change. Maybe this is just my fate, haha.
