From this point upward, the biggest pain point is the lack of a proper correction. Most people in the crypto market are still digesting the shadows of Q4 last year, distracted by various affairs at the end of the year, resulting in confused trading in early January without a clear plan.

Now? Forced to chase the rally. The price just keeps grinding upward, and each wave of the market is hitting those who are late to realize.

Those who chase the rise will get beaten; this wave of market is just a sickle harvesting retail investors.

Getting caught chasing the rise, this is the result of having no plan Chasing highs is a trap; a pullback is the lifesaver Really, who can stand always chasing highs? You need a decent correction Market manipulation is so intense, it feels terrible Without a pullback, there's no chance to get in; now everyone is just a bagholder That confusing trading at the beginning of January is a bloody lesson Is it really that hard for a pullback to happen? The market is so fierce, people without a plan get chopped up That's why discipline is necessary; blindly chasing the rise will always lead to death Wait for the pullback, it will come eventually. Don't follow the herd.

You're absolutely right about the pain point. This wave really didn't give people time to react – it just pulled up directly, and everyone who chased the high got hit.

Who's chasing the high again? Those who didn't get in this wave are going to feel even worse.

nah the lack of pullback hits different... watching retail just sleepwalk into january trades after getting absolutely battered q4 is peak tragedy tbh. the market's basically running a masterclass in psychological warfare rn

Those who chase pumps are destined to get liquidated. I told you we need to wait for a pullback.

The biggest fear of no pullback is getting caught chasing highs. That January surge was indeed sudden and unexpected; many people were still sleepwalking. This is reality—if you run slowly, you'll suffer losses.

Wow, this wave of market movement is really incredible, it didn't give people any time to react at all.

Well... a market without any pullbacks is the most torturous, especially for those who haven't regained their composure yet. The feeling of being forced to chase highs is just incredible; there's no way to calmly think about strategies. Actually, most people are just too greedy; they can't bear to reduce their positions when it's time. As for this January wave, I would say it's about screening who has truly done their homework. The lack of pullbacks has instead exposed who is swimming naked; sometimes this market can be quite brutal. People chasing the highs now have to endure psychological pressure, their hands even trembling. That shadow from the end of last year is still lingering, and being forced to jump in now feels even worse.
