What is important when entering the cryptocurrency world?
A poor mindset in trading cryptocurrencies can lead to losing everything, even with millions. Trading cryptocurrencies is about mindset.
Cryptocurrency trading is a psychological game, a contest of intellect among millions, and an intense psychological battle. The fluctuations in the cryptocurrency market to some extent reflect the psychological changes of both parties involved in the trade. In a certain way, trading cryptocurrencies is about psychological quality. In the long run, most of the winners in the cryptocurrency market are those with higher psychological quality and a more balanced mindset.
Initially, trading cryptocurrencies is driven by curiosity and interest, then it becomes about technique, followed by unexpected insights, unique perspectives, judgment, wisdom, and ultimately, it is about mindset and state of being.
"The most important thing in trading cryptocurrencies is mindset, mindset, and mindset."
Success lies in the mindset, and so does failure. At certain times, the emotions of participants, their frenzies and rationality, will play a decisive role in buying and selling in the cryptocurrency market. Without good psychological quality and a calm mindset, it is difficult to become a big winner.
Sometimes, the market trends can only be understood clearly in hindsight; why wasn't it understood beforehand? Why are there always losses? Beyond technical reasons, one can look for reasons in the mindset—when prices rise, one always hopes for more gains, with greed replacing rationality; when prices fall, the mindset is unstable, always fearing further losses, with fear blinding judgment. Some people often waver between excessive confidence and lack of confidence, making mistakes when overly confident and also when lacking confidence, which may lead to a complete loss of faith.
Some say that a good mindset in trading cryptocurrencies is not to be happy with gains, not to be sad with losses, not to be joyful with profits, and not to be despondent with losses. This is easy to say but difficult to practice. Most people entering the cryptocurrency market are ordinary, feeling happy when buying in the right direction and troubled when buying in the wrong direction, which is human nature. What should be pursued is a state of mental tranquility. When buying correctly, one should not be blindly optimistic. When buying incorrectly and losing money, one should not be blindly pessimistic and disappointed, adding psychological burden and losing judgment, leading to more mistakes.
