⏳ When you see a big market move and your mind is extremely eager to rush in right away, set a rule for yourself: forcibly wait 2 hours.
Why wait?
Because emotions have a half-life. The impulse you feel right now often fades by half after 2 hours.
During these 2 hours, you can grab a glass of water, or review historical price action. If after 2 hours you still feel this trade makes sense, it’s not too late to act.
💡 Today’s quote: Good food doesn’t mind being late, and good trades don’t miss by a couple of hours. Let the bullets fly for a bit. $BTC ‌$ETH ‌

Strongly agree! I used to chase pumps out of FOMO, but later I forced myself to wait for two hours, and most of the time I no longer felt like buying. It helped me avoid a lot of losses.

The decision-making cooling-off period really is a magic tool for fighting FOMO, especially in those highly volatile market moves with big upswings and downswings. Two hours is enough to let your hormones settle down, and you can even use that time to do some basic fundamental analysis—such as checking whether the project has any new progress. If, after two hours, you still feel the logic is sound, it’s not too late to enter. Good food doesn’t fear being late—this saying is worth putting on your trading interface.

What’s the point of forced waiting? In the end, it’s all just going to get you executed and reaped anyway. If you make a mistake once, go ahead and have them just kill you. With enough capital and a light enough position, you can stay alive—but you’ll make less money. Keeping your life means you’ve made money. How many times have people been wiped out because their heavy position led to a bad judgment? There are plenty. So just do your stop-loss.

This two-hour rule has saved me several times.
