Congo just cut losses on the ETH position and turned around to watch it surge upward. The feeling is truly incredible — the account space was already limited, and it was just worn down again. Tiring really is tiring.

Many people have probably experienced this situation. Stop-loss is the correct decision logic, but the market always likes to rally after you exit. ETH's rebound this time came suddenly, and in hindsight, it always feels like something is missing. Sometimes, the hardest part of trading isn't judging the direction, but enduring the psychological disappointment.

When you can't hold on anymore, that's how it is; when the account hits bottom, emotions are more easily influenced. Maybe it's time to give yourself a cooling-off period or adjust the rhythm of risk management. Anyway, the market will continue, and opportunities are always there.

After setting a stop loss and then the price rises, I've been through this routine too. It's really frustrating. It always happens like this—what's missing? A big chunk of profit, that's what's missing.

The price rises right after stop-loss, I am too familiar with this trick, it really makes people doubt life.

It rises after the stop-loss is triggered. I'm too familiar with this routine... I really have to tell myself not to watch the market anymore.

It's the same old story again, stop-loss triggers a rebound, this script is really well written. Forget it, I won't watch anymore. Ignorance is bliss. I'll wait for the next opportunity. That's why I usually try not to look at K-line charts; the more I look, the more anxious I get. There's nothing wrong with setting a stop-loss; it's just that inner barrier that's hard to overcome, which is normal. Actually, this wave of ETH's rebound was expected; the key is to keep a good mindset. Why bother arguing with yourself? There are plenty of opportunities in the market, and this one isn't the only chance. I used to be like that too, but then I realized, I've already lost once, so what if I lose again?

This is my daily routine—getting slapped in the face after stop-loss.

Stop-loss triggered and then it pulls back, is this fate, bro?

This is the daily routine of the leek harvesters. It rises as soon as you leave the market, and crashes as soon as you enter— the market loves to play this psychological game.
