#ETH走势分析 Greed and unwillingness to accept losses can destroy all of a trader’s rationality.



A few days ago, I witnessed the tragedy of a trader: his $ETH long position was about to get liquidated, but he stubbornly held on until a rebound to close the position. He should have taken profits when he could, but watching the subsequent price surge made him itch—"Why does it always skyrocket after I close?" Impulsively, he went all-in and opened a short position.

The result? Two consecutive rounds of full-leverage liquidation, the account went straight to zero.

This is the cruelest part of trading: no matter how many times you win, a single moment of stubbornness can wipe you out. The market doesn’t compensate you just because you "almost made a profit"—it only punishes those who lose control of their emotions.

If you close your position and regret it, then go all-in the other way, this kind of mindset really makes it easy to lose everything.

Here we go again? I've seen too many people like this—if you've closed the position, then it's done. Looking back will only make you regret it to death.

Haha, this is just classic. This guy is a textbook case of not being able to let go. FOMO and then going all in—the market loves to harvest people like this. Honestly, I've never seen a greedy person walk away unscathed. It's not a mindset issue; it's a human nature issue.

Honestly, this is a lesson learned the hard way. I've seen too many people like this. The moment you close your position, you should just look away, but instead, you keep staring at the candlestick chart, letting greed get the better of you.
