Recent market sentiment has been quite volatile, sometimes bullish and sometimes bearish, with investors' emotions fluctuating along with market rhythms, often scaring themselves. Looking back at the sudden surge in October, many held a skeptical attitude towards the expectation of a price surge, resulting in most missing the opportunity and even suffering losses during the downturn.

This makes me ponder, why are so many people shouting 'buy Bitcoin,' yet still hesitant to enter the market?

On the surface, it seems that the uncertainty of the market has caused many to feel doubt, but if you understand it on a deeper level, you will find two key factors hidden within.

First, relying too much on past trends to predict the future. Many people like to impose their views on others based on past market performance, ignoring each person's investment goals, financial situation, and the market environment they are in. You tell others 'now is a good time to enter the market' without considering that they may not have sufficient risk tolerance or even lack adequate understanding of investment cycles and market fluctuations.

Second, there is often a hidden 'self-verification' psychology behind it. Many people hope to gain recognition and pride by sharing their 'unique insights,' which often makes the market irrational. As you spend more time in the crypto space, you'll find that most of these 'nanny-style' services ultimately end in losses, and may even lead you into a deeper loss pit.

The current market is no longer what it used to be; simply relying on trend analysis is no longer the key to victory. The crypto space has gradually matured, and the core elements to make money are not just identifying a technical indicator, but possessing three major elements:

The right investment mentality: Maintain calm in the face of market fluctuations, and not be influenced by short-term ups and downs.

Flexible strategies: Have clear strategies for entering and exiting, to be able to 'attack when possible, defend when necessary,' avoiding blindly following the trend.

High-probability technical analysis: Technical analysis is still important, but it must be combined with market trends and capital flows to make rational decisions.

Your investment circle determines the source of your information. If your circle is filled with pessimistic people about the market, you can easily be influenced and make wrong decisions. In contrast, if you can be with a group of like-minded, positive-minded, and technically skilled people, then your collective strength will greatly enhance the likelihood of achieving your goals.

This kind of power similar to 'team collaboration' is reflected in many fields. For example, why can presidential campaigns in the United States succeed? Why can Elon Musk change the landscape of many industries through bold bets? The fundamental reason is that they stand on the side of the people and can resonate with the big trends, thus generating tremendous synergy.

The same principle applies to investors. In the crypto space, the most important thing is to grasp the overall market trend. As long as you can stand firm in the big trend, regardless of how much you earn, the final result will be profitable.

The first pot of gold in life is often guided by the big trend, rather than relying on momentary luck. If you only rely on random luck, no matter how quickly you earn, you will lose everything during a correction. Therefore, it is advised not to focus too much on short-term fluctuations; anxiety will only add to your troubles and cause you to miss key opportunities.

Market opportunities always favor those who are prepared at all times, rather than those who are 'occasionally prepared.' This is something I deeply realized after entering the crypto market. Opportunities are not just for those who are 'ready,' but for those who maintain a sharp sense of smell and can respond quickly.

At any time, if you feel dissatisfied with life, the first thing to reflect on should be your own beliefs and decisions. Change yourself to change your life. If you do not dare to break through the status quo, this beautiful world will gradually drift away from you. Only through continuous effort and breaking through oneself can you find your own meaning and value in reality.

Just like Bitcoin's growth journey, after experiencing several crises, it still firmly follows its own path and ultimately achieves victory. Every investor facing difficulties should, like Bitcoin, continuously improve themselves and strengthen their beliefs to usher in their own 'bull market.'

As 2024 comes to a close, I want to share a saying with everyone:

"Some are working hard, some are lying flat; some are running, some are sleeping; some are grateful, some are complaining."

If you don't have the luck to win effortlessly, then get up and run hard.
