After being in the crypto market for so long, I've seen too many people stumble in the same place.
For example, trading based on gut feeling—going all-in when expecting a rise, reversing when expecting a fall, and ignoring the candlestick charts as if they’re not there. What’s the result? The market swings back and forth, and accounts resemble roller coasters.
Then there are those who gamble heavily—going all-in once, celebrating until dawn if they win, losing sleep all night if they lose. Such mentality is basically suicide in a volatile market.
The most heartbreaking thing is that even people who understand candlestick charts can't hold onto profits. They might have a 20% gain in hand but insist on waiting for 30%, only to see a pullback and lose it all.
Honestly, the market never rewards those who work overtime desperately. It only rewards those who make the right choices. ETH, in particular, tests patience—getting the trend right isn’t enough; discipline in execution, position management, and stop-loss settings are all crucial. If one link fails, all previous efforts are wasted.

Really, I've seen the problem of not being able to hold onto profits too many times, and I've also stepped into that pit myself. It's easier to say than to do.

It's truly greed that causes trouble. Wanting to hold at 20% instead of waiting for 30% results in even greater losses.

Damn, you're so right. All the people around me are like this, and all-in players just drop dead instantly.

Relying on intuition to make trades really won't survive two bear markets. I've seen too many accounts ruin themselves through reckless trading.

To be honest, I hate those who understand but can't hold on, and I hate myself for going through the same.
