Staying up until the early morning to watch Powell's press conference, honestly, a 25 basis point rate cut was quite dull. At the time, I felt like shorting, and my hand moved.

As a result, I scrolled through social media, and the entire screen was shouting for bullish opportunities. Looking at those analysis posts, I started to doubt my own judgment—this hesitation caused me to miss out on the profits I could have earned.

Now, reflecting back, the problem was that I was led astray by group sentiment and lost my rhythm. When I should have trusted my logic, I was instead disturbed by others' voices. I didn't seize this opportunity, and I need to thoroughly review my trading discipline issues.😓

This is a classic case of FOMO harming people. As soon as you see others shouting, you start doubting yourself, and eventually your actions become distorted.

This is a typical case of FOMO attack, panicking when others call for a buy. Your original logic was correct, but it got all messed up when the group mood took over. I've fallen into this trap too many times.

Being repeatedly pulled by group emotions is too common. The key issue is poor self-discipline; when hearing others' opinions, I get soft.

ngl the classic move—had the right read, then got psychologically ambushed by twitter noise. that's how most people leak their edge, not bad trades, bad discipline.

That's the classic "Cunning Curse"... Clearly heading in the right direction, yet knocked down by noise.

After watching the release event early in the morning, I started trading immediately, only to be brainwashed by the bullish social media... I know this feeling too well, I always suffer heavy losses. Group sentiment is really a killer; even when I know my judgment is correct, I still doubt myself. The short positions were all pressed, but I didn’t dare to add more... Honestly, it's a lack of confidence. The key is that after review, I realized that trading discipline is more important than anything else. Don’t let yourself be led by the rhythm anymore, brother.

This is human nature. Seeing a screen full of bulls, I also get nervous.

I'll just say it: at times like this, it's easiest to get wrecked. Group FOMO is truly poison. To put it simply, it's a lack of discipline. When you see a good opportunity, you back down in hesitation. After being liquidated a few times, you realize that those calling for trades are always the loudest, while the profitable ones are quietly making money. This time, indeed, reflection is necessary, but don't be too hard on yourself; many people have gone through the same. Deciding late at night and staying up all night is prone to mistakes. Sticking to discipline next time is crucial.
