Most losses? They come from acting too fast. Chasing, panic selling, FOMO trades—these are the killers.
Real gains? Those come from sitting still.
Learning when NOT to trade is an edge most traders never master. It's the difference between noise and strategy. In digital assets, patience isn't just a virtue—it's a competitive advantage.
The skill isn't picking the right move. It's knowing when to make no move at all.

That's so true. I lost everything because I was careless.

Really, my biggest gain now is learning to stay silent and still... Those FOMO trades before were lessons learned the hard way.

Well said, these are the lessons from the times I lost the most. I really get itchy hands.

Well, damn it, all my missed trades were just me being careless and pressing the button.

That really hits home. I was emotionally tormented by this very phrase back in the day.

This sentence really hit me. Truly. It took me two years to realize that doing nothing is the best action.

Being immovable like a mountain is the true way; so many people fail because of careless hands.

That's so true, I'm always the one itching to make a move and end up losing.
