Timely stop-loss listening every day, why can't we do it ourselves in the crypto world? 🌚
What are the four most heart-wrenching words in the crypto world?
It's not "plummeting 90%", but "almost got out" 😅
Clearly marked the stop-loss line on the candlestick chart
But when the green digits start jumping
Fingers feel like they are glued to the screen with 502 glue —
"Just wait a bit, maybe it will bounce back soon!"
"I've already lost 30%, cutting losses would be too painful, right?"
(At this moment, inner voice: I'm not a retail investor, I'm here to bottom fish!) 💸
Psychology professors call this "loss aversion"
We in the crypto world affectionately refer to it as "gamblers' mentality"
Watching others' coins rise sharply
While my holdings feel like a dead fish 🐟
At this moment, someone suddenly shouts in the group:
"The big players are entering! The price will soon rise!"
Oh no, the FOMO (fear of missing out) virus instantly activates
Fingers tremble and I put in another 5000U... 🚀
The most ironic thing is
Every time I get cut, I swear:
"Next time, I will definitely stick to the stop-loss!"
But when new opportunities arise
The brain automatically switches to "money-making mode"
Forgetting last time's lessons completely
(Just like someone who forgets the pain after a wound heals in a romantic relationship) 💔
In fact, we all know
What the crypto world has plenty of is opportunities
But what it lacks is a clear understanding of our own human nature
Rather than lamenting during a crash
It's better to become a "ruthless robot" now
Set the stop-loss line and pretend it doesn't exist
If it drops below, it automatically triggers —
After all, preserving the principal is essential for the next round! 🍃
Next time you want to add to your position, remind yourself:
"This is not bottom fishing, this is giving money to the big players!"
"This is not faith, it's a gambler's self-comfort!"
(Verified effective, remember to set a reminder alarm) ⏰
