Making a profit makes me feel awesome, losing money I blame on others' calls😅

To be honest, I originally didn't plan to touch those coins, but I couldn't resist the wave of recommendations. "This time is definitely different," "Miss it and you'll regret it," "Key support levels"… After a barrage of FOMO bombardment, my mind wasn't my own, and I inexplicably pressed the buy button. And the result? Got trapped, and I regret it so much😡

This is the truth of the trading market—when you make money, it's your luck and judgment; when you lose, it's everyone else's fault. Actually, from a psychological perspective, this is a typical combination of FOMO (fear of missing out) and herd mentality. The collective voice acts like an invisible hand, influencing your decisions and making you do things you normally wouldn't.

That hits too close to home. That's how I got trapped, and I'm still lying inside.

Basically, it's just a lack of self-discipline. No one's money can withstand the FOMO effect😅

That's really how it is, blaming the host when you have no brains You're right, I've been through it too, I was blinded by FOMO at the time This batch of newbies is too honest, losing money and still able to analyze themselves so objectively Speaking of which, those who realize this can survive for a long time Only when the contract blows up do you realize that no one can save you but yourself

Haha, this really hit me. That's just who I am. When making money, I boast about my sharp judgment; when losing, I blame the signals. Truly double standards. I also couldn't escape this FOMO; I'm still trapped inside. Honestly, it's a lack of self-discipline. No matter how many theories I have, I can't withstand the relentless bombardment from those people in the group. Next time, I need to learn to stay calm, or I'll forever be the bagholder.

Haha, got shot, that's just how it is. As soon as you hear someone say "key support," your brain just stops thinking. Really, when you make a profit, you brag; when you lose, you shift the blame. This routine is played so skillfully. Honestly, you still need to have your own judgment. Don't let the crowd's voice lead you astray.

Ultimately, I still didn't stick to my bottom line. As soon as I hear the hype in the group, I follow the trend. This is the typical way a bagholder is formed. Every time in history, the rebound should be a signal to clear the position, but I just can't resist greed.

This is just outrageous. Honestly, it's still a lack of self-control. Who should I blame?

Damn, isn't this exactly how I am every time? So relatable. When making money, I'm the chosen one; when losing money, I'm the naive victim who got scammed. Truly a perfect example of double standards. Actually, I still need to kick this FOMO addiction, or I'll always be just a rookie in the game.

Bro, you really hit the nail on the head. This is how I got trapped. When making money, I think of myself as a trading master. When losing money, I start blaming the signals. It's pretty pointless. FOMO is really a poison; even one piece of information can ruin you. Honestly, you still need to learn how to make your own decisions and not let the crowd hijack your mind.
