Don’t get discouraged. I recently chatted with a few top traders operating in Dubai. This market cycle? They’re losing money too. Since October 11, the number of people actually making money can be counted on one hand—this isn’t a joke, it’s reality.



The game has changed. Institutions and sovereign funds are piling in, squeezing out retail investors’ room to survive. Ironically, in this so-called bull market, participants aren’t making money. It’s even more punishing than a bear market.

If this continues, what faith will be left in this space? Getting rich overnight? Don’t even think about it. But losing ten million could take just one sleepless night. The market is using the harshest way to educate anyone still harboring fantasies.

Bitcoin and Ethereum’s price movements are getting harder and harder to read.
BTC-1.58%
ETH-3.35%

ngl the dubai traders cope is just textbook denial at this point. "we're all bleeding" doesn't make it a feature, it's literally just a broken correlation matrix nobody predicted. institutions pumping this feels like watching leverage ratios implode in slow mo.

Even those people in Dubai are losing money? That actually makes me feel better, haha. Once the institutional and national teams come in, retail investors really become cannon fodder. Hilarious. This isn't a bull market, it's precision harvesting. Losing ten million overnight—this is the gentle caress of the market. It's normal if you don't understand it; it means you haven't been completely brainwashed yet.

That guy in Dubai is losing money too? That makes me feel better, haha. --- So yeah, it's really much harder to make money now than before. --- Institutions coming in just made things even messier—it's ridiculous. --- Wait, you lost ten million in just one night? That sounds a bit scary. --- Belief in this stuff was wiped out by the market long ago. --- If you can't understand it, that's normal. I don't get it either. --- Retail investors are really stuck; there's nothing we can do.
