We've all been there! You open a #Short and the price skyrockets 🚀, or you start a #Long and suddenly it plummets 📉. Is the market a conspiracy against you? No! Here’s the explanation:
🔍 Why does it happen?
1️⃣ Trading Psychology 🤯
- Many traders act at the same key levels (support/resistance). If everyone sees the same thing, the price can unexpectedly bounce.
2️⃣ Liquidity and "Stop Hunts" 🎣
- Big players sometimes move the price to liquidate stops (including yours!) before reversing.
3️⃣ Confirmation Bias 🔄
- We tend to remember more the times when the market "beats us" and forget the successful trades.
4️⃣ Natural Volatility ⚡
- Cryptos move fast. One news item, a whale moving funds, or even sudden FOMO/FUD can change the trend in seconds.
💡 How to avoid it?
✔ Always use STOP LOSS (no exceptions!).
✔ Analyze multiple timeframes before entering.
✔ Don't follow the herd – Sometimes the best entry is contrary to the general sentiment.
✔ Manage your risk – Never risk more than 1-2% per trade.
🎯 The market has no personality, but it does have patterns. If you feel like it's "chasing you", review your strategy and adjust your risk management. Trading is discipline, not magic!
