After all, most people won't stop after a big profit, they always feel that the "cycle is not over yet" and want to take another gamble, the result is giving back the money they earned.

The principle of 'playing foolish games and winning foolish prizes' always applies, but sometimes the process is just extended for traders and gamblers.
