Many new traders fall into a classic trap: buying at every green candle and selling in fear when the market crashes — just like in the image. Let’s break down what’s happening and how you can avoid it.

📈 The Trap: “BUY! BUY! BUY! … BYE!”

This stair-step pattern shows a typical bullish trend where the price keeps rising. At every new high, retail traders get excited and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) kicks in. They buy during the uptrend thinking it will never stop. Then suddenly the market crashes — and they panic sell at a loss.

This is not a strategy. This is emotional trading.

🧠 Step-by-Step Guide to Avoid the Trap

Have a Plan Before You Trade

Never enter a trade without knowing:

  • Your entry price

  • Your take profit levels

  • Your stop-loss level

Emotion has no place in this process

Buy on Pullbacks, Not at Peaks

Instead of buying during green candles, wait for red candles — buy when others are fearful. Set buy orders near key support levels.

Golden Rule: Buy low, sell high. Not the other way around

Take Profits in Steps

Don’t wait for a magical top. Sell portions as price rises:

  • 25% at 20% profit

  • 25% at 50% profit

  • 25% at 100% profit

  • Hold the rest or trail stop it

This reduces emotional panic during pullbacks

Use Stop Losses

Protect your capital with stop-loss orders. Don’t “hop it recovers.” Protecting your downside is as important as aiming for upside.

Avoid Herd Mentality

When everyone on Twitter or Telegram is shouting “BUY NOW!!!” — it’s often too late. Be cautious when hype is high.

Zoom Out and Think Long-Term

Look at the bigger chart. A small drop might just be a normal correction in an uptrend. Don’t let short-term noise make long-term mistakes.

🧘 Stay Disciplined

Successful traders don’t chase green candles or panic on red ones. They follow data, charts, and plans — not emotions.

Remember: In crypto, your worst enemy is not the market — it’s your own psychology
