Trading really messes with people's sense of regularity. Meal times are irregular, watching the market all night, snacking whenever hungry, nerves are always on edge.

That 5-minute pump yesterday morning was really a bit outrageous. The gains accumulated over several days of consolidation were all realized in just a few minutes. That’s the most heartbreaking part—the market manipulators kept the coin price within a certain range for several days, hovering around a few tens of dollars, then in just 5 minutes, it shot up so much. You might call it a coincidence, but these kinds of events happen way too frequently.

This market, honestly, saying it’s ever-changing is too passive. Sometimes looking at the chart, I wonder if it’s essentially human-driven pricing? The whales hold the chips, and the pricing power is in their hands. The reactions of retail investors chasing gains and cutting losses have long been factored in.

As the year-end approaches, here’s the same advice—don’t be too greedy, don’t get caught up in the hype. The thrill of chasing gains lasts only five minutes, but the pain of getting back to break-even can last five months. Whether it’s BNB, ETH, or any coin, controlling risk is always more important than dreaming of getting rich overnight. Stay sober when trading, that’s more important than anything.
