Today’s market reminds us again that trading is not about who is the bravest, but who is the most disciplined. Sharp price movements, high volatility, and large liquidation waves do not happen without reason. Most of the time, it’s not because the market is “irrational,” but because too many positions are taking on excessive risk.
Liquidation is not the enemy. It is a consequence. A consequence of excessive leverage, ignored stop-losses, and the belief that the market will always turn in our favor. The market never promises anything. It only moves according to liquidity.
In times like this, ego is tested more than analysis. Many are correct in their direction but lose on timing. Many are confident but forget to hold. In fact, a trader’s main goal is not always big profits, but to stay alive in the market to seize the next opportunity.
The market teaches lessons in a costly but honest way. It punishes greed, tests patience, and clarifies one important thing: risk management is not just a strategy complement, but the core of everything.
