#美联储启动新一轮降息周期 $pippin surged nearly 2000% from the lows, witnessing many dramatic moments in this cycle—repeated shakeouts, long and short battles, intertwined desires and fears. Some have achieved wealth leaps during this trend, but honestly, most retail traders still end up with losses.
Why? Ultimately, it all comes down to one issue: improper execution of take-profit and stop-loss orders. When making money, greed takes over—they want to earn that last penny; when losing money, the psychological collapse ensues—they stubbornly hold on, refusing to cut losses, and finally get wiped out. The market won't wait for you to wake up. By the time you react, there's often no chance to turn things around.
The market cycles and evolves, but those who can truly sustain profits are always a minority—those who plan ahead, set precise risk boundaries, and stay rational amid volatility. When the next certainty opportunity arrives, the difference lies right here.

Greed is really the fatal disease of retail investors. They want to make more after making a profit, and stubbornly hold on after losses. The endings are all the same.

Greed, huh? It's really the Achilles' heel of retail investors. I've seen too many people lose everything by holding onto that last position out of reluctance.

This round is truly a bloody lesson; greed immediately led to a complete loss.

That really hits home. All my bloody lessons are right here.
Every time I want to earn that last penny, I end up getting trapped in return.
I've seen 2000% market rallies, experienced liquidation, and now I just want to live steadily.
Taking profits and stopping losses sound easy in theory, but when it comes to execution, the heart softens. Greed really can kill.
It's a common disease among retail investors; no one can escape it.
I've learned my lesson this time. Next time, I need to be tougher. If I should run, I’ll run—don't wait for the market to turn against me.

That really hits home... truly... The 2000% temptation is right in front of you, who the hell can stay rational?
