In financial trading, especially in the cryptocurrency market, there are two factors that frequently influence traders' decisions: negative news and the FOMO effect (Fear Of Missing Out).
Adverse news can come from sources such as legal policies, hacked exchanges, whales dumping assets, or negative information related to projects. These types of news often directly impact prices and create short-term panic in the market. However, investors can easily identify the source of the news, verify the information, and make decisions based on facts.
Meanwhile, FOMO is purely psychological, arising when prices rise sharply, the market is active, and many people around appear to be 'making easy money.' FOMO often leads traders to enter trades without a clear plan, overlook risks, and trade based on emotions. As a result, many buy at the peak, sell at the bottom, and get caught in a chain of consecutive losses.
The difference between these two situations lies in the mechanism of impact:
– Bad news often causes defensive reactions, making traders hesitant or exit trades.
– FOMO triggers impulsive behavior, causing traders to act hastily and without analysis.
Some statistics from trading communities also show that most losing trades come from hasty entries during hot market conditions, rather than reacting to negative news.
In reality, financial markets are always volatile and there is no shortage of both good and bad news. But how traders react is the key factor that affects trading outcomes. Understanding the differences between psychological factors will help individuals better control their behavior in the market.
