The chart's moving without you. Green candles are stacking. That FOMO feeling kicks in—chase or wait?
Here's the thing: by the time you're noticing it, smart money's already booked profits. You're entering late, holding the bag at the top. It happens every cycle.
Better approach? Sit tight. Watch the move complete its story. Take that breath and remember something crucial—the market doesn't close. Fresh setups appear constantly. Daily. You're not missing "the" opportunity; you're dodging a trap disguised as one.
The traders who win long-term aren't the ones chasing every pump. They're the ones disciplined enough to wait for their setup, their entry price, their risk-reward ratio. Patience isn't sitting on the sidelines forever. It's positioning yourself for the next confirmed signal, not reacting to yesterday's move.

You're right... I especially hate that moment when I'm always the bag holder. As soon as I see a bunch of green candles, I start trembling, and then it drops right after I buy. Really, I go through this every cycle.

Exactly right, but executing it is really damn difficult. Watching the green candles surge upward, my hands start to itch, and all I can think about is "What if I miss out?" As a result, I rush in, and the high-position bagholder is you.

Really, it's always like this... seeing the price go up makes me want to rush in, and in the end, I'm the one holding the bag.

Chasing highs is nicely called FOMO; bluntly, it's being a bagholder. I've seen too many people chase after green candles, only to end up trapped.
