Are you an old player or a newbie? 😅😅😅👉👈
In reality, it's not that the big players are watching who to cut, but rather that there will always be someone who just happens to get cut.
Every price level on the candlestick chart has transaction records behind it; there will always be someone who happens to buy at the peak and someone who happens to sell at the bottom.
As mentioned earlier, people have particularly deep memories of unfortunate events that happen to them. If you were to statistically analyze it, out of a hundred trades, maybe only ten or eight times would one actually get caught, but those few instances leave a particularly deep impression, overshadowing all the normal trading experiences.
This is also one of the greatest values of introducing quantitative thinking into the investment field, as it allows one to use historical data for statistics. From the past to the present, if one continually trades using the same logic, one can determine the actual probability (frequency) of getting caught at the peak rather than relying on subjective impressions.
Of course, this approach is not infallible; just because history was one way does not mean the future will be the same. However, at the very least, using statistical methods can help one escape some illusions, such as the fact that the big players are not really watching your small amount of money; it's just that you are reinforcing the memory of a few unfortunate experiences.
