“Why do I always fail to sell when altcoins rise 10 times, but play dead when they drop 90%?”
“Why do I always think I can sell at the top during a bull market, but end up buying in halfway down during a bear market?”
This is not just your problem—
90% of retail investors are trapped in this vicious cycle:
Imagining 'it can go even higher' during a surge, only to see profits go to zero
Waiting for a 'rebound to break even' during a crash, only to see a further halving
Thinking you 'understand the bull and bear cycles', but in reality, you are being controlled by emotions the whole time
The root cause: You’ve been fooled by the false concept of 'selling at the top in a bull market, buying at the bottom in a bear market'!
Disrupting cognition: Bulls and bears are 'certifications after the fact', there is no 'criteria for judgment'
1️⃣ “Is 100,000 the top? What about 200,000?”
Bitcoin rose from 15,000 to 100,000, with only 5% of the time being real surges, the remaining 95% in fluctuations
By the time you confirm 'the bull market is here', the big players have already started to distribute
2️⃣ “Buying at the bottom in a bear market? Where is the bottom?”
When BTC drops from 100,000 to 80,000, you think 'it's the bottom', but altcoins can still drop another 70%
Big players won’t crash the market directly, but will use slow declines + fake bounces to wear down your patience (Example: a coin dropped from 10 to 1, with a 90% decline that took half a year, creating 7 instances of 'false reversals' in the process)
3️⃣ The truth:
In the crypto circle, the only controllable factors are buying/selling/quantity
Other variables (policies, big players, news) are completely unpredictable
Bloody lessons: 90% lose in the 'gentle trap' of altcoins
Classic script:
Stage 1: 1,000,000 → 3,000,000 (Excited: 'I’m about to achieve financial freedom!')
Stage 2: 3,000,000 → 2,700,000 (Conflicted: 'I’ll sell when it goes back to 3,000,000')
Stage 3: 2,700,000 → 2,000,000 (Numb: 'Waiting for a rebound to 2,500,000')
Stage 4: 2,000,000 → 500,000 (Despair: 'Just play dead…')
Big players' tactics:
Pump: Using a 3-day surge to attract you to chase the highs
Distribution: Using 6 months of slow decline + fake bounce to keep your 'hope alive'
Endgame: When retail investors finally despair and sell at a loss, the big players have already exited with 90% profit
Counterattack strategy: Use 'anti-human nature training' to break the vicious cycle
✅ Step 1: Establish 'muscle memory for cutting losses'
When profit targets are met, immediately sell 50% (e.g., cash out half when it goes from 10x to 5x)
When breaking through key support lines, clear out within 3 seconds (don’t give your brain time to make excuses)
✅ Step 2: Reject 'cost anchoring psychology'
Forget about the 'purchase price', focus only on the current trend
Example: If a coin drops from 10 to 1, and you bought in at 8, you should sell at 5, not wait for 'break even'
✅ Step 3: Focus on 'extreme market money-making methods'
A 30%+ crash + fear index > 80: Gradually accumulate BTC/ETH (historical data shows a rebound probability of over 70% within a week)
A 50% surge + widespread FOMO: Immediately reduce your position by 50%, move stop-loss up for the remaining position
Summary
“Selling at the top in a bull market is luck, buying at the bottom in a bear market is metaphysics,
The only thing you can control is your buying and selling decisions at this moment.””
