Three months of continuous decline, market sentiment has plummeted to freezing point, and the mental defense line has already been shattered. So what happened? The rebound has only lasted 6 days, and many people are starting to look for shorting opportunities again. This is the cruelest part of the crypto market—the times when everyone is most bearish are often the biggest traps. Any rebound in a bear market will attract the retail investors who were previously trapped, eager to get out; it also attracts those habitual bearish traders who have long been blinded by consecutive losses. The result is mutual harm. Many people need to calm down and re-evaluate their trading logic.

Thinking of buying the dip on a rebound? Bro, you must think you're not losing enough already.

Haha, here we go again. Three years ago, it was the same story. Those who are still alive have made a fortune, and those who died along the way can just pretend it never happened.

Here we go again, this set of excuses. Every rebound is called a trap; so when will it not be a trap? --- Honestly, being trapped for three months really muddles the mind. Now, whenever I see a rebound, I want to cut my shorts. This mindset needs to be gradually adjusted. --- Repeated bear markets can indeed wear people out, but don’t think of all rebounds as traps; sometimes they are genuine rebounds. --- The phrase "mutual harm" is used perfectly. Retail investors and traders are just harvesting each other in these repeated cycles. --- Being calm? Ha, those who wait until they are emotionally steady to re-enter often miss the best opportunities. --- People who have been losing consecutively are indeed easily driven by emotions, but now those calling for calm will still get caught up when the next rebound comes.

It's only been a 6-day rebound, and a bunch of people are already looking for opportunities to dump. How twisted is that mindset, haha.

Here we go again, as soon as I see a rebound, I want to dump the market. I've really been messed up mentally by losses.

Really, I'm tired of this routine. Every time there's a rebound, they start buying the dip and shorting, I'm truly afraid of losing.

Here we go again, wanting to smash during a rebound—truly the gambling mentality at work. Honestly, if you're afraid of losses, just don't touch it. If you insist on finding a suicidal bottom-fishing opportunity, you deserve it. Being trapped for three months and still hoping for a short-term turnaround—this logic is truly remarkable. The words "stop loss," how many people spend their entire lives unable to learn them? Actually, it's just two words: greed. It's greed that destroys people.

mile 20 energy right here... when everyone's legs are screaming, that's when the real race starts. those oversold bounces always separate the sprinters from the marathon runners. been through this cycle enough times to know panic selling at the bottom is just poor pacing ngl

Rebounded for 6 days and rushing to bottom fish short positions? These people really can't learn. The most toxic thing in a bear market is this kind of repeated messing around.
