Don't remind me again today

Here's something most traders get backwards: chasing bottoms? That can wait. Locking in gains? That's where urgency matters.



Too many people rush into positions during dips, driven by FOMO. But the real skill? Knowing when to step back. Markets reward patience on entry and discipline on exit.

So here's your reality check—take a breath. Slow things down. There's zero shame in sitting on the sidelines while others panic buy. Sometimes the best trade is the one you don't make... yet.

I missed gains and can only blame my own greed; this point is well made.

The moment of leaving the market is the real test, taking profit is much harder than buying the dip.

Reconciliation is much harder than making a profit; that's real skill.

Indeed, many people go against the trend, charging down when they see the bottom line, and end up being Tied Up.

You are right. Many people are now against it. They only want to buy the dip but end up getting trapped. When it's time to act, they are instead hesitating.

I've lost money more than once by rushing to buy the dip, but this time I've finally understood.
