Missing out, selling high, nothing matters
The only logic for rising now is the expectation that Trump will fulfill his promises; he has two months left in office. I'm not surprised by the ups and downs in contracts; everyone needs to be prepared for risks. After making a few profitable trades in early October, I have mostly been on the sidelines, holding USDT, waiting to go all in. Because I know well that many times this year have seen declines at the beginning of the month, several times on the 5th, which coincides with the US election. My intuition tells me to wait until after the 5th to enter, when the situation will be clearer. I plan to allocate more to altcoins.
People have a common flaw: thinking but not acting. I believe Trump will win; the tide of history regarding the transition between old and new capital is unstoppable. Entering the market early, experiencing downward trends, various news, and undercurrents, I firmly believe that if Trump wins, this will lead to the clearest rebound and explosive growth for altcoins.
Then came the unfortunate part: on the afternoon of the 4th, I had a low fever, took fever-reducing medicine, and on the 5th, I had a high fever, feeling weak and not wanting to do anything. I woke up groggy at noon, glanced at the market, took the fever reducer, and went back to sleep. In the evening, I woke up and went to the hospital for emergency care, tests, and IV fluids.
On the evening of the 6th, after a night's sleep, my body finally felt better. I looked at the market and saw it had collapsed, dozens of points down, a massive surge. I knew I had missed out and realized that I had not increased my positions where I should have, those who sold high sold high, those who positioned themselves did not position themselves. Until now, as I post, I have no positions; at this moment, FOMO emotions have peaked, and reason tells me not to act impulsively.
My first post primarily discussed altcoins, confirming that most strong altcoin bottoms were on the 8th. Some were on the 6th, and some were just a few days ago.
At this moment, I have become a missing out dog, a selling high dog, haha, nothing matters, my health is the most important. Right now, I am neither chasing long nor short; I am waiting for the right opportunity. Outside is calm, and I must not let emotions disrupt my mindset.
