The direction is right, but time is not on our side



If I had chosen the expiration date of December 31, 2025, today this order would have actually resulted in real profits. Haha, but unfortunately, just because I was a week late, I missed out.

The same line of thinking and logic, the same correct view of the trend, but I still couldn't catch up with the rhythm of a major exchange launching spot trading. Market prediction is so magical — your judgment might be completely correct, but the variable of time can ruin everything.

The more deeply you participate, the more you feel that sense of helplessness. It's not that your analytical ability is lacking, but that the market never evolves as expected. Time costs, liquidity windows, entry timing... each one can determine whether you ultimately profit or suffer a loss.

This is what market prediction has taught me: no matter how perfect the forecast, it can't beat being "early" or "late."

It's been 7 days late, and it's all wasted. This is our daily life... Time difference can really be deadly. Almost able to withdraw funds, now I can only watch it float... The prediction market is truly incredible. All analyses are correct, but I still lose money. Now I always think: whether I was early or late is the real problem.

Gone in just 7 days, it's really f***ing outrageous... The time difference is the most frustrating thing.

Seven days, just seven days—that's the distance between me and money. If only I had seven days earlier, that would be great. Honestly, I don't even want to look at the K-line anymore.

Haha, it's another time zone game. In just 7 days, real money turns into unrealized losses. Unbelievable. I’ve experienced more than once that even if you predict the right direction, you can't keep up with the rhythm. It’s really torturous. It's really just a matter of timing. No matter how strong your analytical skills are, it’s useless; the market won't wait for you. This is what I dislike the most... even the most accurate call can be wiped out by entering too early or too late. But looking at it from another perspective, at least you’ve reflected on this point, which is better than many who are still making excuses.

A 7-day gap is just 7 days' worth of tuition fees. We've really been beaten by time in this wave.
