I recently noticed an interesting phenomenon while monitoring the market. The price movements of certain popular cryptocurrencies tend to easily trigger traders' nerves—usually calm and steady, but once they start moving, the rapid ascent is almost unstoppable.



Have you ever experienced this? Watching the market charts, thinking to wait a bit, only to turn around and see it has already surged significantly. The most heartbreaking part is that those who decisively jumped in have already locked in profits, while you're still hesitating whether to chase.

Ultimately, this is the dilemma of short-term trading. When volatility is low, it's easy to become complacent, thinking there's no opportunity; but when real opportunities come, they often pass in the blink of an eye. The common trait among those who make money in such markets is their ability to hold their positions. They won't miss the window due to hesitation, nor chase impulsively out of FOMO.

Instead of regretting afterward, it's better to develop a habit now—observe carefully, plan your strategy, and act when the time is right. Once you get used to this rhythm, you'll find that catching rapid surges isn't as difficult as it seems.

It's the same old story, making me feel like I’ve never stepped into a pit. That’s how I was taught to behave back then, and now I just want to laugh when I see others repeating the same mistakes. Real veterans have long since given up, so don’t talk to me about "holding onto principles." I just prefer to hold onto my wallet now. Chasing highs? That’s a game for the young. I can’t afford to play anymore.

It's the same old story, but the key is execution, brother. Knowing doesn't equal doing.

It's the same old story, procrastinators are always the last winners... I don't believe you for a second.

Honestly, the wait-and-see crowd all end up as the FOMO buyers—that's the curse...
