After a whole day of messing around, I’ve been occupied by one thought—bottom fishing, bottom fishing, or still bottom fishing. And what’s the result? Massive losses. I hardly ever took short positions, mostly caught in long positions, and that feeling really isn’t pleasant.



But sitting in front of the computer and thinking quietly, this loss actually helped me realize one thing: greed is truly the fastest killer in trading. The more you want to catch the absolute bottom, the easier it is to fall into the trap.

My current mindset has shifted a bit—rather than blindly pursuing perfect entry points, it’s better to learn how to protect myself first. The road ahead is still long, and there’s no need to stumble repeatedly in the same pit. Today might be the darkest moment, but once you get through it, you’ll see a different scenery.

Keep going, suppress your greed, and it will get better.

I'm really resonating with this wave. The mindset of bottom-fishing is like poison. It's okay once or twice, but too much can really be deadly.

Damn, it's another story of someone going broke from bottom-fishing. I'm all too familiar with it. The feeling of being trapped in a long position is incredible, like betting everything you have. But on the other hand, it's good just to come out alive; some people didn't make it.

This is a classic case of the "perfect entry fallacy," brother... On-chain data has been available for a long time, but people just think they can precisely hit the lowest point. From a game theory perspective, this means rational expectations have failed.
