Are retail investors really destined to be cut?

Ultimately, it’s because they haven’t escaped the control of market rhythm.

In the crypto market, many people's losses are not because they missed the trend, but because they simply didn’t understand what institutions are really doing — they only watch the red and green candles all day, and their mentality swings wildly with the fluctuations.

A common pattern we see is this: quick dump, then accumulate at low levels.

When the price suddenly drops sharply, most retail investors’ first reaction is too slow to analyze the structure, and they are immediately driven by fear — they rush to exit. Meanwhile, others are quietly accumulating at the bottom.

But once the chips are sufficiently concentrated, they won’t immediately push the price up.

Next comes a dull period of oscillation, where the direction is unclear, repeatedly trying to shake out less committed holders. This phase is the most likely to crush retail investors’ mentality, causing you to give up at a point where you shouldn’t.

When market sentiment is almost exhausted, the price begins to rise slowly.

Trading volume is deliberately increased at this point, creating the illusion that “institutions are entering, and the market is about to take off,” attracting a rush of follow-on traders.

Those who truly understand the market are not in a hurry to sell at this stage.

They lift the price while planting fake selling pressure — making you think there’s a dump, when in fact they’re just squeezing you to hand over your chips. #通证化浪潮 $BTC have all experienced this pattern.

Only when the follow-on volume is sufficiently rich do they cleanly distribute at the true high.

In simple terms, institutions repeatedly profit because they understand two human weaknesses:

Fear of falling, greed for rising.

To avoid being heavily harvested, the key is not to predict the rise and fall precisely.

It’s about maintaining your composure and rhythm:

Don’t overturn your judgment just because of one candle, don’t be led by emotions.

Understand the structure, position yourself accurately.

Wait when you need to, and make a firm decision when it’s time to act.

Can your account gradually recover in this wave of market movement?

The power actually lies not in the market, but in your own hands.

Get the rhythm right, and you can indeed avoid many unnecessary detours during the downturn.
