#以太坊行情解读 $BTC $ETH $BNB

Nine out of ten retail investors lose money in a bull market—to put it bluntly, it's not that the market doesn't give opportunities; quite the opposite, the market is so fierce that it becomes a mirror, reflecting everyone's greed and fear under the sunlight.

The symptoms of retail investors are actually quite fixed:
· Panic at the first dip, fear intensifies as it falls, eventually giving up and cutting losses at the lowest point;
· Excited at every rise, always thinking there will be a pullback, only to be forced into a short squeeze and chasing the high—then realizing they became the last bagholder.

The most extreme thing is the bull market itself; it's not just a simple rise, but an amplification of all your flaws:
· When greed takes over, you think you're a trading genius; but just a small dip makes you doubt everything.
· Seeing others' accounts double, you get impulsive and go all-in, fantasizing about recouping losses, only to end up losing your principal and giving back your profits.

Oh no, that's too heartbreaking to hear, I am that fool who chases the price... After going all in once, I now don’t dare to take a heavy position, the mindset is really harder to fix than the technique. A bull run is like a magnifying glass, exposing human nature to the point of nowhere to hide. I bet five bucks that this post is full of people coming to recognize relatives. When I see others hitting the limit up, my brain just goes on fire, looking back now it’s just ridiculous. To put it bluntly, we retail investors are just here to give money to the institutions, and we woke up too late.

Oh no, that hit too close to home. I'm the sucker who chased the high and got caught.

I just said this might be a bit harsh... Losing nine out of ten is indeed true.

Oh no, I was just saying why am I always the one to take the final step. This part really hits home. Watching others multiply their holdings fivefold in a month every day, while I stubbornly cut my losses at the bottom... It's really outrageous. Honestly, it's a matter of mental resilience; there's really no technical skill involved.

actually, the behavioral analysis here is statistically significant but fundamentally misses the correlation between volatility clustering and psychological anchoring bias—most retail traders operate at like 30% efficiency given historical data on drawdown patterns
