Why Most People Buy High and Sell Low And How to Avoid It

Let’s be honest most traders lose money because they do the opposite of what they should. They buy when a coin is trending on social media, and they sell when the price dips a little. But that’s not trading it’s emotional gambling.

Here’s what really happens: when prices are pumping, everyone gets excited. “This coin is going to the moon!” they shout. They FOMO in buying at the top, hoping for another 2x. But then comes the correction. Prices pull back. Fear kicks in. And without a plan, they sell for a loss.

But the pros? They do the opposite. They buy when no one’s watching. They accumulate during boring ranges, red days, or when social media goes quiet. Then they ride the wave up when the crowd finally catches on.

Want to trade smart? Here’s what you need:

A clear entry and exit plan

Patience to wait for strong setups

The courage to buy when others are scared

The discipline to take profits when others are greedy

Remember: markets don’t reward emotion they reward preparation. So don’t chase the hype. Build your strategy, stick to it, and let the market come to you. That’s how real profits are made.
