There’s a saying in the #美联储重启降息步伐 circle: Your knowledge determines your potential. But the reality is—your position size determines what you say.



Those who are all-in keep hyping the market, while those who missed out keep calling for a crash. Interestingly, the people who don’t dare to short at the top or go long at the bottom are often the same crowd.

In this market, speculation and risk are out in the open. Are you really expecting stable returns here? That’s just setting yourself up for disappointment.

What’s even more dangerous is having a preset bias. Once you decide “this is the top” or “this is the bottom,” every move you make will revolve around that judgment. If your bet is right, you’re fine. If you’re wrong, you could get liquidated.

Try a different approach: Stop trying to catch tops and bottoms, and treat the market as a range. You’ll feel much more relaxed, and your trading will be more flexible. Going with the trend will always feel better than fighting it.

I’ve seen plenty of people chasing thrills—shorting after a rally, going long after a big drop. Maybe you’ll get it right 99 times, but just one mistake with heavy leverage can wipe out all your previous gains—and even put you deep in debt.

When the market is meant to fall, it won’t stop just because you’re reluctant. When it’s meant to rise, it won’t reverse just because you’re bearish.

Since you can’t control the market, don’t expect yourself to be right every time. Chasing a 100% win rate just isn’t realistic.

Market really dropping? Then trade the swings to lower your cost, and aim to break even. Even if you miss out on gains later, as long as you’re following your own trading system, that’s the right move. Because what saves you isn’t luck—it’s discipline. $BTC $ETH $BNB

Position size determines how strong your words are, that's absolutely spot on. I'm the type who's timid at the top and still timid at the bottom, haha.

It's the same old talk again—I've heard it so much my ears are getting calluses. But to be honest, the part about your position determining how tough you talk really hits the mark.

That hits too close to home. Position = mouth, that's the reality. I've seen people go all-in, talk bullish so much that they believed it themselves, and then go completely silent after a sudden plunge.

Your position size determines how tough you talk—this really hits home. I’ve seen people fully invested begging for mercy, while those who missed out wish they could crash the market.
