#美联储重启降息步伐 Many people always lose money doing short-term trading. It's not that their chart-reading skills are lacking, $PIPPIN
the problem is that they're too impatient.
When you see those sharp spikes, do your hands itch to chase in? Nine times out of ten, you'll get trapped. When prices plunge and you think it's a bottom-fishing opportunity? Most likely it'll keep dropping. These are lessons learned with real money.
When the coin price is still fluctuating wildly and hasn't stabilized, don't rush to enter the market. If trading volume has shrunk to the point where no one's playing, why blindly mess around? When the whales aren't moving, why are retail investors so anxious?
One more thing: around noon and late at night, it's best not to trade. When trading is quiet, it's often a trap to lure in buyers—waiting specifically for irrational people to jump in.
Before entering, you must be clear about your logic, and set your stop-loss line in advance. When it hits, get out—don't hesitate. If you can't read the market, just sit on the sidelines and watch. It's not too late to act once you understand what's happening.
In short-term trading, real experts aren't the ones who make the wildest gains, but those who know how to control their losses.
If you can hold on, you'll have a chance to win it back.

That's so true. An itchy hand is the most dangerous. That's exactly how I got trapped at noon.

What you said is absolutely right, mindset really is the biggest pitfall. I've been caught chasing highs countless times because I couldn't resist, and now whenever I see the prices jumping around, I can't help but want to go all in, only to end up losing big every time. The timing around noon and midnight is indeed weird—I’ve been liquidated several times during those periods. Knowing about stop-loss is one thing, but actually being able to hit that button is a whole different story.

Well said, mindset is the hardest thing to control. I used to have itchy hands too, but now I've gotten smarter—when there's no volume, I just act blind to avoid getting trapped.

Simply put, it's a matter of capital efficiency. An impatient mindset is equivalent to making stop-losses meaningless. The data is clear: slippage costs during periods of thin trading can eat up half your profits.

That really hits home. I'm exactly the kind of fool who can't resist chasing the pump—I only understood after losing several months' salary.

lmao timing the liquidity pools like that is actually just leaving basis points on the table fr fr. the real move? measure your slippage windows instead of fomo chasing pumps

What you said is absolutely right; it's just that most people can't control their own hands. I'm the same—I only understood after falling into the trap of being lured into going long several times at the beginning.

That's spot on—those who acted quickly all got trapped.

It's the same old mindset talk again. Not wrong, but I've heard it a hundred times... The real challenge is execution. Everyone knows you need to stay disciplined, but the key is how to actually hold your ground when you're losing.
