An interesting phenomenon: when the majority of the crypto community is optimistic about a certain asset, it often underperforms. It’s only when everyone collectively changes their tune and says "this thing is no good" that the price may start to rise. This is like the market moving counter to the consensus of the crowd; the more unified the opinion, the more likely it is to serve as a contrarian indicator. Sometimes, the best trading signals come precisely from those assets that are collectively being bearish.

Basically, it's a reverse operation—those who are optimistic all fall, and those who are bearish are the ones who rise. This game is all about psychological warfare.

Haha, that's why I always lose money... It's all because of following the trend.

Isn't this just reverse thinking? Basically, retail investors tend to lose when they collectively try to buy the dip.

The theory of contrarian indicators has been heard many times, but hardly anyone dares to go all-in and be bearish on a coin.
