In the recent rally from 110,000 to 150,000, many people actually saw the opportunity but couldn't bring themselves to act. The biggest challenge is mental preparation — the numbers are right there, but when it comes to actually investing money, hesitation kicks in. This is the most painful part of trading — seeing the right market but losing to your own fear.

nah this is literally just variance in risk tolerance disguised as psychological weakness, statistically speaking like 68% of retail traders exhibit this exact pattern before capitulation phases. the real issue isn't fear it's just... poorly calibrated position sizing algorithms running in their heads lol

Honestly, this is my true reflection lately... Watching it pass by helplessly

Really, watching the market move with your own eyes but unable to do anything, this feeling is incredible.

To be honest, isn't this just myself? Watching it rise but not daring to chase, and as a result, missing out on a big wave.

psychology is honestly the hardest smart contract to audit... everyone can see the code's correct but executing the trade? that's where the runtime errors hit different. the gap between signal and action is basically an unaudited vulnerability in our own governance layer ngl

Really, this is my daily routine. I look at the charts very clearly, but I can't reach out.
