In crypto trading, one of the toughest disciplines is knowing when to stay put. Holding your ground while the market tempts you to act—that's where most investors struggle. The conviction to do nothing when prices spike, when social media hypes the next moonshot, when everyone around you is positioning? That's the real skill. Most portfolio losses don't come from bad entries. They come from overtrading, from abandoning your thesis because of short-term noise. Sometimes the winning move is just patience. Let the market come to you instead of constantly chasing it.

ngl, that really hits home for me. I'm the kind of person who gets itchy hands and wants to make a move whenever I see the coin price fluctuate.

Damn, you're so right. I lost a lot because I was reckless with overtrading.

Honestly, HODL is easy to talk about but extremely difficult to actually do. I often get overwhelmed by FOMO myself...

Really, the itch to act is more deadly than losing money. Just look at how many people, driven by FOMO from endless scrolling, go all-in, only to be washed out...

nah this is just survivorship bias dressed up as wisdom. the real alpha comes from exploiting inefficiency vectors while others are paralyzed by indecision, not from sitting idle watching liquidation cascades unfold around you.

In simple terms, it's about controlling your hands and not making reckless moves. That's the hardest part.
