Have you ever wondered why you always fall when you rush in? It's not just luck. Frankly, it's because you make decisions at the wrong time.
Looking at the current market, sector rotation is happening so fast—today it's AI, tomorrow it's Layer2, the day after it's some new concept. When you see everyone shouting "Takeoff," and rush in with enthusiasm—what's usually the situation then? The most popular, most concentrated chips, and big players have already been eyeing this wave of new retail investors. The moment you enter, you're actually selling to someone else. Are you buying an opportunity? No, you're buying a trap.
Those who truly make money from the market think completely differently. They don't look at whether it's hot or not; they focus on what stage the current trend is in—just starting? Accelerating upward? Or volume is increasing but losing strength?
You can chase hot topics, but only in the first half of the trend. Once everyone has accepted a story, the heat has actually turned into a game of who can run faster. Early movers take profits and exit, while later entrants can only take the leftovers.
Chasing hot topics requires courage; timing it right depends on brains. Every day there are opportunities to jump into the market, but those who truly seize them are always the few who understand patience, dare to hold cash, and act decisively at critical moments. One precise entry can outperform ten reckless chases.

Really, seeing "Takeoff" all over the screen makes me want to laugh; at this point, entering is just giving away your position.
---
Waiting on the sidelines for opportunities—sounds simple, but actually doing it is too hard.
---
Make money in the first half, then take over in the second half—that's it.
---
Timing the rhythm precisely is much more effective than being overly brave; I believe in that.
---
Every time, I enter at the peak of popularity, and then I get trapped.
---
Knowing how to wait? I can't stand it; as soon as I see a hot spot, I get excited.
---
A precise entry once beats blindly chasing ten times; the problem is, how do you know when to be precise?

That really hits home. I was trapped like this last year, watching everything skyrocket on the screen, and in a moment of impulsiveness, I jumped in and bought in. Now I understand that by the time a hot topic appears, it's usually already at the peak.

wallet clustering on these pumps screams textbook distribution pattern. traced the flow on AT and KAITO—massive holder exodus right before retail fomo kicks in. statistical anomaly or coordinated dump? historical data suggests the latter. but sure, keep chasing green candles.

That's right, I've been caught in this way before. Watching others hype it up every day, a single surge and I suffer huge losses, this rhythm really can't be predicted accurately.

Waiting in a flat position is really much more comfortable than blindly chasing, although it’s painful to see others take off.
---
I also missed the first half, I’m always the one who comes in last.
---
People who know how to wait definitely earn more. My impulsive temper is just defeated by impatience.
---
Instead of chasing hot topics, it’s better to study cycles, but who the heck has that much patience.
---
That’s why half the time my account is empty; I’d rather miss out than buy in at the wrong time.
---
I feel like ZEC still has a chance this wave, should I give it a try?
---
Every day caught in a trap, every day losing money, then I turn around and see others making gains by riding the rhythm, it’s heartbreaking.
---
The few who take action at critical moments are always the minority, and I belong to the majority.
---
Chased about seven or eight hot topics, not a single profit, all just tuition fees.
