Staring at the K-line chart for a long time, I suddenly thought of something—people who always try to buy the dip or chase the top are mostly the ones who get harvested by the market in the end.
The market is like a mirror. When it’s rising, you think about pushing a little more; when it’s falling, you’re afraid it will keep dropping. That fluctuating curve on the screen doesn’t really move you because of the price itself, but because of the greed and fear in everyone’s heart. Trading, to put it simply, is a test of whether you can let go of your obsession with the outcome and instead see the true trend at this moment clearly.
Many people spend all their energy watching the charts, but the key actually lies in your mindset. Every order placed is a self-reflection; every stop-loss is a letting go. Whether you make a profit or a loss, it’s fleeting like dew drops. In the end, what stays with you is that heart which isn’t swayed by the market.
**Current ZKC Situation**
The price has already surged to a high level. The 4-hour RSI indicator reads 78.9, entering the overbought zone; the 1-hour MACD also shows negative bars, indicating that the upward momentum is weakening. The overall trend is still bullish, but from this perspective, the risk of chasing longs is accumulating. Instead of following the rally higher, it’s better to patiently wait for a safer entry point.
**Current Attitude: Watching and Waiting**
This doesn’t mean a big drop is certain, but at this position, the risk-reward ratio isn’t ideal. The core of risk management is to stay cautious when uncertainty is high.

That's so true. I was trapped like that before, watching the market every day, and the more I watched, the more I lost.

That's really clever. Trying to buy the dip and sell at the top always ends up giving money to the big players.

Everyone trying to buy the dip has been trapped; that's a harsh statement, but it's really not wrong.

The mentality of bottom-fishing and chasing peaks is indeed a killer, well said. But honestly, most people, including myself, still can't change this habit... RSI 78.9 is indeed a bit scary, but whether ZKC can continue to rise in this wave is still a question.

Well said, buying the dip and chasing the top is an art of giving money to the market makers.

That hits too close to home. I'm the kind of person who keeps watching the market until my eyes hurt, just to buy the dip again.
