The real opponent is never the others in the market, but your own emotions.
In the cryptocurrency market, most people do not fail due to inadequate technical analysis, nor do they lose because of biased information judgment; instead, they are crushed by the greed and fear within.
When market fluctuations hit, emotions act like an invisible virus, quietly eroding judgment and weakening rational decision-making.
Watching others profit easily leads to FOMO (Fear of Missing Out), causing blind chasing of highs; when the account experiences a drawdown, there is a rush to cut losses in panic. On the surface, it appears to be trading in the market, but in reality, it is trading emotions. The market itself is neither good nor evil; what truly traps people in difficulties is the inability to control their emotional reactions.
The dividing line between top traders and ordinary investors is never about information asymmetry, but rather about the ability to maintain emotional stability over the long term.
Mature investors understand how to overcome the temptations and panic brought by volatility, always following discipline and plans, steadfastly executing strategies, and not being swayed by short-term fluctuations.
Without the ability to manage emotions, it becomes difficult to control operations; once operations are out of control, it is impossible to predict outcomes. Emotional management is a necessary path for every investor to mature.
