Don't talk about "trading addiction"; it's essentially being poor——
Being so poor that you can't afford to miss any profitable fluctuations in the K-line.
This isn't a personality issue; it's an inevitable choice due to insufficient capital.
Finance talks about the time value, while economics discusses marginal utility.
In the cryptocurrency world, it's more straightforward: 100,000 now and 100,000 five years later are not the same.
Who can guarantee that the currency will still be around in five years? Will exchanges go bankrupt?
Value investors say, "Hold onto quality coins for compound interest," but retail investors can't wait that long.
With a capital of 30,000 to 50,000, even at an annualized rate of 30%, it takes three years to double.
Three years? Bull and bear cycles, urgent life matters, will have you confused by then.
Let's be realistic: are there really that many certain opportunities in the crypto world?
24-hour fluctuations, leveraged contracts, and meme coins shooting up and crashing down—every day there's the temptation of "miss it and lose."
Retail investors don't want stable profits; they want to turn things around quickly—small capital means if you don't take a risk, where will the next round of chips come from?
So don’t talk about win rates; in your mind, you can only calculate odds:
A contract that triples is equivalent to ten small profits; catching a hundred times meme coin saves you five years of waiting.
High odds necessarily mean low win rates, just like 100x leverage—you either break even or get liquidated.
The crypto version of Texas Hold'em: you only have that little margin, and you can't spread your bets like institutions.
Slowly grind your capital? That's a slow death.
Loosen the conditions for opening positions, take more risks, and use take-profit and stop-loss techniques to patch the win rate gaps.
Conclusion: Frequent trading is not shameful.
What's shameful is: betting ten times without catching a single win, opening positions based solely on feelings, and blaming the "whales" when you get liquidated.
Frequent trading isn't the problem; lacking skill is. $BTC
