Why do retail investors always lose? Let me talk about how I helped someone turn their situation around.
Retail investors, losing money, liquidation—these three terms have almost become the norm in the cryptocurrency world.
But very few people have seriously thought about:
Are you losing because of the market, or because of your mindset and execution?
Today, I won't sell anxiety. I'll share some real insights, three painful truths:
First, retail investors die from "buying high when bullish, cutting losses when bearish."
Have you noticed that you only want to enter the market when the price is rising?
Are you afraid when it drops?
To put it plainly, you are not trading; you are gambling with your emotions.
I review my trades regularly, watch the order book, and monitor on-chain data.
I prepare my entry points in advance, waiting for "profitable market conditions."
I don’t chase after prices that have already risen; instead, I set up my strategy before the major players act.
Last time, I guided my followers to short ETH; we entered right at the point where the price dipped, using 100x leverage, making a 50-point gain, and exited faster than anyone.
It’s not luck; it’s experience + a defined strategy.
Second, 99% of retail investors’ failures: over-leveraging against the trend, frequent entries and exits, averaging down on losses.
This statement is painful but true:
"Many people don’t lack trading skills; they simply can’t stop trading."
After seeing my strategy and making a small profit on two trades, they stop listening to me:
They increase their position size from light to heavy, holding on to losing trades, and ultimately get battered by the market during the final wave of correction.
The real rhythm of making money is "heavy at turning points, light during fluctuations." If the market isn’t giving opportunities, take a break; only take action when the market presents itself.
You see, I don’t frequently place trades; sometimes I only make one trade a day, but the hit rate is terrifyingly high.
It’s not because I bet accurately; it’s because I understand: missing out isn’t scary; losses are lethal.
Third, when I guide trades, it’s not just about giving a few entry points; it’s about helping you evolve your trading mindset.
You need to understand that those who can survive long-term in the cryptocurrency market are not gamblers who make quick money every day,
but traders with a system, a strategy, and a rhythm.
In the past, trading relied on intuition; now, trading relies on rules.
I can help you turn your account around, but I want to take you out of the "retail investor mindset."
Losing money isn’t scary; what’s scary is still being in self-delusion, thinking you can rely on luck to recover your losses.
No exaggeration, if you’ve read this, it means you’re already thinking about making a change.
