i remember when price cratered hard af in 2018-2019 and i kept trying to knife catch each dip and got burned

legit felt like there was no bottom

this is that in reverse and people are compounding losses trying for mean reversion setups lol

the more losses you eat, the more you literally NEED to catch the top just to break even or slightly profit from all the L's you took

you put yourself in such a shit spot doing this, like running uphill the entire time

also your sentiment is going to be all fked up so you'll miss the top

because you're not synced up with the market, you're not going to feel trend exhaustion when it actually occurs lol - that only hits right when you've been mostly profiting and start feeling the need to derisk
