When the market sentiment turns dark and everyone's hitting the panic button, that's actually when real opportunities emerge. The traders who stay composed during the downturns—not reckless, but steady—are the ones positioned to capitalize when the cycle turns. Fear and greed drive most moves in crypto. Master the psychology, and you're already ahead of the herd.

See through but don't expose, I just quietly make a fortune. Last time it dropped, I was still bottom fishing, and now some people are just starting to regret.

Damn, it's the same old motivational clichés... How many can truly hold up?

That's right, the hardest part is really maintaining the right mindset. I've seen too many people sell off during a sharp decline, only for the price to hit the daily limit up right after. Mindset truly requires cultivation.

Panic moments are the best times to buy the dip. There's truth in that, but how many people can truly remain calm and composed? Most people talk about contrarian strategies, but their fingers can't stop trembling over the sell button.

That's right, but I just checked my account, and I'm still on the bottom-fishing journey. Only the tough ones can truly hold their mindset.

yeah see this is where most degens get it twisted tho. "stay composed" sounds nice on a podcast but the real move is recognizing when the correlation matrix actually breaks down. that's when the smart money plays, not just some zen meditation on volatility

That's correct, but most people simply can't do it. As soon as the market drops, they panic, their mindset collapses, and technical skills are useless.
