If you bought ETH at $3000 and felt very happy when it rose to $3500. Then, ETH continued to rise, reaching $4000, and your joy escalated.

However, ETH quickly fell back from $4000 to $3500, and at this point, you began to feel regret, wishing you had sold at $4000, as you could have made an extra $500. It's still $3500, but your mindset has changed completely.

ETH itself is still the same ETH that could rise to $5000; that hasn't changed, only your mental state has.

If the mindset is unbalanced, it often leads to two unfavorable outcomes:

If the upward trend has not ended, you may fear another pullback and exit early, missing out on larger profit potential.

If the upward trend has ended, you might stubbornly cling to the previous high, hoping the price will rise back to that level, only to see the price continue to fall, ultimately turning profits into nothing.

Both scenarios are extremely detrimental to investment. Therefore, it is crucial to adjust your mindset during investment and not to pursue selling at the highest point. We should make decisions based on our expectations:

If you believe the market is still continuing, hold firmly, and even if the price pulls back, there is no need to panic, as it may rise again after the pullback.

If you believe the market has ended, decisively sell without hesitation, and do not cling to waiting for the price to return to the previous high.

The key to investing lies in rationality and calmness; mindset determines the outcome, and remember not to be led by short-term fluctuations.
