#以太坊行情解读 Last night's market move almost got me to chase in. When $ETH approached the precise level, I didn't dare to add to my short position—missed it by about 10 points. Waking up this morning, my first reaction was regret, but the more I thought about it, the clearer one thing became: this perfectionist mindset is exactly what I need to smash.

No one can predict the market with absolute accuracy. What you can do is make decisions within fuzzy price ranges, accepting imperfection. True market experts never aim for every trade to be perfect—in fact, those traders who can tolerate uncertainty tend to last the longest. Missed profits are tuition fees; adjusting your mindset is the real gain.

Sometimes, letting a trade go is more disciplined than chasing in.

ngl the perfectionism thing hits different when you're staring at charts at 3am... data literally shows that overtrading on "perfect" entries tanks long-term returns way harder than missing a few points here and there. empirically speaking, the traders with lowest drawdowns aren't the ones hunting every micro-move—they're just... chilling with their thesis

I also saw this wave of market, and it's really just missing that final step... But upon reflection, maybe it's this "missing step" that saved me? Perfectionism needs to be cured, or else the account will be perfectly wiped out first. Missing orders are not scary; what's scary is chasing in without knowing why you're chasing.

Oh no, I was also itching to join this round, but luckily I didn't chase it. To be honest, the perfectionist approach definitely needs to be changed; the market doesn't give you the chance to wait. Missing out on orders is painful, but staying alive and making money is more important than anything else.

Ha, I knew this mindset was right. Perfectionism in the crypto world is just poison. Missing a trade isn't shameful; getting liquidated is the real disaster.

Regretting just 10 points can ruin the whole day; this mindset definitely needs to change.

Yeah, I understand the urge to jump in at the first sign of a 10-point increase. But honestly, those who can resist this desire tend to have accounts that last quite a long time.
