Making trades based on predictions is no different from gambling!
When you come across those posts, just take a look and don't take them seriously. Why?
First of all, even if the prediction is accurate in direction, you might not make any money.
For example, someone says there will be a big drop in May, but do you know exactly when it will start to drop?
Before the drop, will there be a new high to trick you into getting on board?
When it actually drops, can you hold onto your short position? A random rebound in between could shake you out!
It's like someone saying "It will rain tomorrow," but not specifying the exact time and place; you could carry an umbrella and wander around all day without getting wet.
Secondly, if the prediction is wrong, you're in worse trouble. Blindly following a big influencer's operations means if they are wrong, they just delete their post and walk away, while your hard-earned money goes down the drain.
I've seen too many people get fired up after reading an analysis and rush in with all their funds, only to see the market move in the opposite direction and explode on the spot!
Real reliable trading is about eating what's served; when prices hit resistance levels, check the trading volume to see if it's a true breakout; when they hit support levels, observe the large orders to judge whether it's possible to catch a bottom. In those indecisive positions, keep your hands off and don’t mess around!
Remember, the market is always changing, clinging to predictions is like using an expired map to find your way—it's no wonder you get lost!
