They will tear apart your rationality, disrupt your judgment, making you unable to hold onto the positions you should keep, while selling off the positions you shouldn't sell, ultimately dragging you step by step into the abyss. The real winners in the market understand how to manage risk by controlling their positions and facing the turbulent market with a calm mindset. Always remember not to over-leverage; true experts never lack capital.
