The cruelest thing in trading is often not the moment your account blows up, but when you start to lose faith in yourself.

Losing money can be gradually recovered. But that kind of mental collapse? It’s endless.

You clearly have logic and a complete plan, yet the market always seems to go against you. $ASTER is moving, but you hesitate to place an order; you finally enter the market, and as soon as there's a little profit, you rush to exit, only to see it soar. You chase in again, only to be repeatedly shaken out, your mindset shattering.

Over time, you stop blaming the market or the market makers, and start asking yourself: Am I really incapable?

This kind of doubt is the most toxic. It doesn’t make noise or cause a fuss; it just keeps draining you. You begin to overturn your original system, frequently changing strategies and making random moves. You can’t hold onto winning trades, but you stubbornly hold onto losing ones. Confidence is gradually ground into dust. In trading pairs like $pippin and others, this cycle repeats every day.

But you might not have thought about it—reaching this point already surpasses most people who just trade based on feelings.

The real factor that eliminates traders is never a single loss. It’s whether, during a long period without positive feedback, you can still hold onto your rationality without collapsing.

The biggest danger in trading isn’t losing money; it’s losing trust in your own judgment.

If you’re stuck here now, don’t rush to make up for losses, and don’t rush to prove yourself. Slow down, review your trades, record your thoughts, and make small adjustments. Endure this period of doubt, and you’ll find—true stability begins right from this moment.
