When Bitcoin's price surged to 87,800, I couldn't resist the temptation and went all in prematurely. The original plan was to wait until it broke through 91,000 before following up, but after such a long period of sideways movement, I was really exhausted and ultimately couldn't hold back. To be honest, this move taught me a valuable lesson — greed is the easiest way to get wrecked in trading.

Thinking carefully, turning $10,000 into $20,000, losing 50% and then doubling back sounds simple, but the actual difficulty of executing it is something you need to be aware of. Risk and reward are never equal, especially during market volatility, and it's crucial to learn how to control your desires. Next time, I must stick to the plan and not let short-term fluctuations throw me off rhythm.

87800 can't hold? Me too, haha, just took a big fall Life, the more you try to control, the more it gets out of control. Next time, stick to the plan, really 50% rebound doubles? Just listen, actual operation is hell This time I understand, greed is indeed the poison of trading, admit defeat Sideways trading is really the most torturous, still need to have resolve

Haha, another brother who has been worn down by sideways trading to the point of surrender. I told you, this market cycle tests human nature the most. That's why I never change my plan. 87,800 and such, I don't even blink. Wait, lose 50% and then double up? That means tripling your position, my friend. You gotta do the math to pass the test. Going all-in sounds exciting, but if you really lose everything, that's despair. No doubt about it. Feeling mentally exhausted? Then you should stick to your plan even more. If you're tired and still change your plan, you're just creating your own obstacles.

87800 is the breaking point, I'm also stunned haha --- That's why I can never be a professional trader --- Controlling desire is easy to say, but who can withstand it when the moment comes --- 50% rebound to double? Bro, you're dreaming of peaches --- Plans can't keep up with changes, sideways trading is the most torturous --- Should have listened to what asset management people said, don't go all-in blindly --- Feeling exhausted, this word is perfect

Haha, you're so right... I also couldn't hold back when I was at 88k, now I kind of regret it.

Haha, this is what we often say: "Plans can't keep up with changes." Acting at 87,800 is indeed a bit hasty. Consolidation can be really frustrating, but it also precisely shows that those who truly make money are very bored, aren't they?
