How exhausting is trading? Analyzing fundamentals, watching charts, avoiding black swans—by the time you go through this process, your energy is already depleted. In this highly volatile market, we keep exploring repeatedly. Some do it for financial freedom, others just want to prove their judgment is correct.
But this is the reality: the market is not short of opportunities. What is truly lacking? It’s the capital you can pull out at any time from your pocket, and the calm heart that stays cool amidst the fluctuations.
To be honest. Don’t let a single loss crush your mindset, and don’t be blinded by a few handsome gains. Most people’s downfall isn’t because their analysis isn’t deep enough, but because they slip up or become greedy. Have you set your stop-loss? Are your positions over-allocated? These details are the key.
It’s late, and the wind outside is very comfortable. Instead of obsessing over today’s ups and downs, it’s better to throw all your fatigue into those candlesticks and give yourself a good sleep. Continue tomorrow, and be a more rational trader.

Sometimes, a slip of the hand is more deadly than a lack of intelligence.
---
Principal and mindset, you’re so right. I fell for greed.
---
Every time, I don’t set my stop-loss properly, and then I start to comfort myself.
---
Lying in bed, still scrolling through candlestick charts—when will these days end?
---
No matter how deep the analysis, it’s useless; in the end, emotions still take over.
---
Reading this article feels like looking in a mirror—so painful.
---
Black swan events can’t be prevented, but a slip of the hand definitely can.
---
Financial freedom or proving oneself—at the end of the day, it’s all about vanity.
---
Wake up, your principal can’t handle this volatility at all.
---
A single slip of the hand, half a year’s worth of effort gone—this feeling is unbeatable.
---
The wind outside feels nice, and my account feels good too—go enjoy some coolness.
---
Calm? Talking about calmness in this market is almost asking for death.
---
Overleveraging is truly slow suicide; I’m still paying off debts right now.

Really, it was just a slip of the hand, nothing else.

It's too realistic, I'm the one who got killed by a slip of the hand.
---
Principal is the hard truth; no matter how deep the analysis, it can't fill the gaps caused by greed.
---
Still the same saying, controlling risk is always more difficult than chasing returns, yet most people do the opposite.
---
Continuing tomorrow? I think it's more important to first adjust your mindset than anything else.
---
Slipping, greed, emotional explosion—you make it sound like my daily routine.
---
Stop-loss sounds simple, but when you set it, your hands start trembling.
---
Whether you're tired or not doesn't matter; what's crucial is the feeling when you lose money, which can keep you awake all night.
---
So, having principal is more valuable than having brains.
---
In a market with such large fluctuations, if you can't keep a steady mindset, don't play at all, really.

Honestly, the most feared thing is that one slip of the hand causing six months of gains to be lost, and the mindset just collapses.
---
Stop-loss is easy to set up, but when it really hurts, too many people chicken out.
---
Instead of staring at the screen every day and getting nervous, it's better to set good parameters and sleep peacefully. How many sleeping pills could that save?
---
No principal in the pocket, no matter how good the analysis, it's just armchair strategizing.
---
When a coin you like pulls back, you get itchy hands—that's probably why most people end up losing money.
---
Sometimes it's not a wrong judgment, but frequent operations that ruin you.
---
Staying calm amid volatility is easy to say, but actually doing it is deadly. I'm fed up.

Bro, this paragraph really hits home. Honestly, most of the time we fail because of greed, and our stop-losses are set as if they don't exist.
