The most dangerous enemy in leverage trading is often the trader themselves.
Candlestick charts flicker like an electrocardiogram, and Bitcoin repeatedly tests the $100,000 threshold. In trading channels, those who get liquidated are wailing, short-sellers are showing off, while most are hesitating—should I buy the dip now or admit defeat?
Within these fluctuations lies a recurring phenomenon: many accounts are in the red, not because they misjudged the market trend, but because they misjudged themselves. Understanding the trend and understanding human nature are fundamentally different in difficulty by an order of magnitude. Someone has confessed that every time they see price fluctuations, their fingers uncontrollably want to click and trade, knowing they should wait patiently, but always afraid of missing the opportunity. After a year, the profits from big trends they caught are completely eaten up by small oscillations.
**The market is lying, emotions are the first to reveal**
Recent movements just confirm this point. Bitcoin is oscillating around $100,000, but the market fear index is only 24—this number is quite interesting. The same fear index of 24 appeared in April this year when Bitcoin was only at $74,000. Now the price is nearly 30% higher, but the level of panic hasn't changed.
As prices rise, emotions sink—this divergence often signals some loosening. On the surface, everyone is discussing diminishing effects of Trump policies, ETF outflows, and high-interest rates sideways trading, but the real issue is—market liquidity and resilience are declining. When participants all focus on the same support level, any small movement can trigger a stampede. This isn't a price problem; it's a human psychology problem.

It's that same routine of "can't control fingers," every time saying to wait patiently, every time reversing the operation, no wonder getting shaken out.
---
What the heck is the 24 panic index? Is this number deceiving us or are we all numb?
---
People say the real issue is human nature, but the problem is no one can truly understand themselves, including myself haha.
---
The price has risen thirty points, but the panic hasn't changed? That's suspicious, either the market is overly confident or it's time to run.
---
Damn, hearing that a year's profit was eaten up by small fluctuations sounds so familiar...
---
I've heard that logic of supporting levels being trampled on countless times, and every time it's said like that, but what’s the result in the end?

The most dangerous enemy is oneself, that's right, but the most profitable one is also oneself, depends on who has a strong mindset.
