Why do many people, after experiencing a bull market, still fail to achieve financial freedom?

It's not because they didn't make money.
But because—after earning it, they give it back.
Let's do a calculation based on the most ideal path:
30k USD × 7 times = 210k USD
210k USD × 7 times = 1.47M USD
Two bull markets, a 49-fold return.
Going from 30k USD to nearly 1.5 million USD isn't actually exaggerated.
But in reality, most people get stuck at these 3 steps:
1️⃣ Being too greedy in a bull market
Wanting to double the profits, but ending up losing more than half of the gains
2️⃣ Being too impatient in a bear market
Always trying to buy the bottom to recover, but the more they do, the more they lose
3️⃣ Being too impulsive during rebounds
Knowing they should wait, but always afraid of missing out
So, the hardest part of trading has never been “how to make money.”
It's actually:
- Having the courage in a bull market
- Being able to wait in a bear market
- Holding on after earning
True experts win beyond just the candlestick charts.
They win with mindset, rhythm, and discipline.
Don’t start by aiming for 30k right away.
First, achieve your first 1 million, then think about the next goal.
Do you agree?
In trading, what's the hardest—opening a position, taking profits, or waiting?
