There's a real disconnect out there between traders chasing profits and those who actually have skin in the game. You see it constantly—someone's frustrated because altcoins are pumping and they're stuck on the sidelines, waiting for a buy signal that never came. Thing is, they're not upset about missing the move itself; they're upset because nobody told them it was happening. That's the real tell. When you're dependent on someone else's indicator to make your moves, you're not really trading—you're following. The skill gap shows up here. Some traders read the chart, spot the pattern, execute. Others? They refresh their Discord waiting for the next "signal." Two different approaches, two completely different results. One's built on analysis and conviction. The other's built on hope and somebody else's homework. Markets don't care which lane you're in—they reward the former and humble the latter.
