During these three months from the end of the year to the beginning of the new year, I never doubted the vitality of the crypto market.

Looking back, the three months of volatility and six months of adjustment are actually normal rhythms. The problem is not in the market, but in people. Many people fall into two traps: either they miss the opportunity to position at low levels, or they exhaust their capital during the repeated fluctuations.

This time is no different. Since November, through December, and into January, it's clear that many people are starting to waver. But the real opportunity often appears during such times.

I have always believed that the Spring Festival market will come, unaffected by extreme emotions. Because this reflects a simple fact — the market is far from as pessimistic as it seems, and the trend isn't as bad as it appears. Keep persisting, and be ready for what’s to come.

Haha, it's the same old story. The problem lies with the person. Alright, so why does the problem always fall on me? Talking about human weakness sounds nice, but when it comes to critical moments, isn't everyone the same? Spring Festival market... I'll just see if I can hold on until that day. My principal is almost exhausted, what else am I even trying for? You're right, the market isn't the problem, it's just me having issues. How long will this wave keep bouncing back and forth? Do you have an idea this time, bro? Stop advising me, I've already started doubting the cycle theory. Low-position positioning? I've already gone all in, now I can only wait for death. Wavering? I've already collapsed long ago, right now I'm just a walking corpse. It's always like this, keep waiting and waiting, and in the end, what I once had is gone. The so-called real opportunity is just survivor bias, to put it plainly. Keep going, keep going, no matter what, it's all about persistence.

Those who didn't buy in at the low are now all shouting about cutting losses, hilarious

That's right, it's a test of mentality. Not daring to buy in at low levels, and cutting losses at high levels—this round of retail investors has indeed been squeezed dry.

Being afraid to buy at low prices and reluctant to sell at high prices is the true portrayal of most people. --- Spring Festival market? I think, first we need to get through this wave of psychological testing. --- That's right, but the problem is how many people can truly endure until the moment of opportunity. --- Talking about the Spring Festival market again, what did we say around this time last year... --- Persistence is correct, but the key is having enough capital to persist. --- The market isn't that bad; people's mentality is the worst thing of all. --- I just want to know, who exactly is the person that "missed the chance to position at low prices"? --- The phrase "repeated fluctuations deplete capital" hit me hard; that's how I got cut.

Yeah, that's right, it's a mindset issue. Not daring to buy at low points and cutting losses at high points—this wave is repeating itself. There are usually moves before the Spring Festival; the historical pattern is clear. That's what I think too. Currently, only new retail investors are panicking; the veterans are all accumulating. Honestly, those who can endure these three months are the real winners; everyone else is just a supporting role. The ones who are currently laughing the most are those who positioned at the low points. They were ridiculed when they invested money back then. Repeatedly cutting losses is the most costly. Instead of frequent trading, it's better to stay calm and hold. This time is no exception. Just hold on; the Spring Festival market is real, it happens every year.

You haven't even bought in at the low levels and you're still talking about bottom-fishing stories. You're the most confident, huh?

I have suffered losses in low-position positioning before, so now I just rely on a strong mindset to endure... The Spring Festival market is indeed worth looking forward to.
