Every time the market slightly moves higher, people start calling for a rebound. Have you ever thought about how many times you need to lose before understanding this? Is this rhythm of chasing gains and selling losses really worth it? In the entire market, how many people are driven by short-term fluctuations, ultimately influenced by the opinions of various KOLs, repeatedly paying transaction fees? The rise and fall of popular coins like SOL, XRP, and BNB trigger countless retail investors' emotional swings. Sometimes, you really should ask yourself: do you genuinely believe in the future of this market, or are you just looking for quick profits?

SOL4,45%

XRP5,49%

BNB4,07%

I’ve been caught up in this rhythm for a whole year now, and now everything looks like a rebound It's all the same. No matter how much you say, it will come back again Optimistic about the future? I just want quick money, who isn't? KOLs just know how to harvest, the fees are enough for them to buy a house That wave of SOL really couldn't hold, chasing and cutting, no wonder they lost Actually, the problem isn't whether there's a rebound or not, it's just that I can't control my hands Exactly right, this kind of emotional fluctuation is really deadly

Chasing gains and selling at losses is indeed easy, but the real difficulty is not being swayed by emotions. Fees have eaten into the profits, and you're still dreaming of doubling your money. During the SOL plunge, how many people woke up from their dreams? Honestly, it's a mindset issue. Retail investors just want to gamble a bit. KOLs keep cutting in one after another. When will they learn to judge for themselves? It's always the same. When the bear market comes, you finally realize what you're doing. Rebound, rebound—what the hell is a rebound? Most of it is just a pullback.

This really hits home. I have too many people around me who chase gains and sell off in a panic every day, ending up with not a single penny earned and feeding the exchange fees like crazy. Honestly, the hardest part of the crypto world isn't choosing the right coins, but controlling this restless heart of ours.

Well said, I am one of those repeatedly exploited by this rhythm... Chasing rallies and selling dips is truly a terminal illness for retail investors, losing badly wave after wave following the trend. I've paid all the fees and still haven't made a dime. KOLs' mouths are faster than account appreciation, really. The problem is, what's the use of knowing these truths? I still can't resist... I couldn't hold back during that SOL wave, and now I regret it to death. If you ask me, it's just a lack of resolve, always unable to control oneself.

That's right, chasing gains and selling losses is really a recipe for becoming a retail investor. The fees alone could buy several cups of coffee. Watching KOLs call trades is all gambler mentality; I've already given up. Short-term fluctuations are just used to trap retail investors; don't fall for it. I also got caught during the SOL wave, but now I've learned to be smarter. Instead of staring at the ups and downs every day, it's better to think carefully about your own strategy. Over a year, the fees eaten up from trading can be devastating. You really need to ask yourself whether you're investing or gambling.

追涨杀跌就是在给交易所打工，手续费都被吃了说得对啊，有多少人真的是因为信仰买的，结果全被KOL带节奏了我他妈又在反弹的时候上车了，现在亏得真的离谱每次都说这次不同了，结果还是那套老把戏，散户都一样的命想快钱就别怪市场无情，这游戏本来就是这样听了三个月的分析，最后发现都是废话，还不如闭眼梭哈别说了，我的SOL和XRP已经在地板上跪着了这就是为什么我现在只做长期持有，不跟风是真的救命

说得太扎心了，我就是被KOL割过一次才明白，手续费吃掉了一半收益... 追涨杀跌真的是赔钱最快的方式，每次都想着下一个SOL暴涨，结果全是接盘侠。心态管理比选币更难啊，看着涨就想冲，看着跌就想逃，最后什么都没赚到。不是看好未来，就是想快钱，这俩我都见过，结果都一样惨。波动这么大还天天盯盘，根本停不下来，该戒。其实就是贪心作祟，知道追涨不对，就是戒不掉那个刺激感。
