#数字资产市场动态 Is a rebound really that easy to blow? Most people don't actually get wiped out during a decline.
Think carefully about your losing accounts—how many of those positions were cut during a rebound?
As soon as a rebound appears, people start sweating. The positions that have been trapped for a long time finally have a chance to be freed, and at the most emotionally intense moment—you place a sell order. And what happens? The rebound continues, and the market actually moves higher. Now you understand why 90% of people are especially prone to making mistakes during rebounds.
Where is the most cunning part of a rebound? It precisely hits your least patient moment. You don't have time to think clearly whether this is a true reversal or just a trap to shake out weak hands; your emotions have already made the decision for you.
But look at how a true trend reversal unfolds—rarely does a single big green candle just take off immediately. The usual pattern is: repeated bottom confirmations → gentle increase in volume → steady upward movement. What you need is not speed, but the ability to understand this rhythm.
The movements of mainstream coins like BTC and ETH can better illustrate the point. During each bottom rebound, the most intense selling often happens during the first surge. Holding on at that moment is what makes the subsequent gains yours.
Next time a rebound comes, try doing this: first, calm down for three seconds, and ask yourself, "Am I trying to escape or missing an opportunity?" Waiting is always much better than rushing to place an order and regret it later. Once you can control this rhythm, you'll avoid 90% of the pitfalls. Making steady profits amid volatility sounds simple, but in practice, it’s a battle against your greed and fear.

It's the same old story. If taking three seconds to stay calm was helpful, I wouldn't be losing money every day.

Oh no, I got caught again. My mind really stops working during the rebound.
Me too, every time I think this wave of rebound is real, but as soon as I sell, it takes off. So frustrating.
I need to remember the trick of calming down for three seconds. Next time there's a rebound, I must try it.
That's right, most losses come from messing around and cutting during rebounds.
I can't hold on anymore. That feeling is like crazy wanting to escape, regardless of the subsequent market trend.
Wait, isn't this logic also part of repeatedly confirming the bottom? Why am I still chasing?

Damn, isn't this just about me? I want to sell on the rebound, but I got slapped in the face.
That's right, most of the losses are really caused by my own sloppy trading during the rebound.
Wait, repeatedly confirming the bottom is the easiest way to be fooled. How can I tell if it's a genuine reversal or a trap to shake out stops?
Three seconds of calm won't help; emotions come up, and three minutes won't save you.
During that rebound of BTC, I stubbornly sold everything at the peak. Now I regret it every day.
It feels like the entire crypto market is just playing psychological warfare—those with better mental state make more money.
Next time there's a rebound, I'll try holding back and see how many days I can stick with it.

To be honest, it's easiest to mess up during a rebound, and I'm no exception. The worst losses came from rushing to sell the top.
This time I slipped up again, and by the time I realized it, the market had already soared.
The three-second calm-down technique is real; if you can't stick to it, you're just a trash retail investor, and that's me.
The most difficult part is confirming the bottom; I keep trying to buy the dip but keep getting hammered.
It's really just a discipline issue, nothing technical involved.

That was too harsh. I am one of the 90% who got caught in the rebound and killed.
---
Calm down for three seconds; it sounds simple, but in reality, you can't calm down at all.
---
I've fallen for this routine over and over again. Every time I think this time is different, but I still get crushed.
---
I couldn't resist the recent BTC rebound; I cut at the low, blood and tears.
---
Really, when emotions make decisions, no one can save you.
---
Understanding the rhythm sounds easy, but try it when your account drops by 40%.
---
The phrase "bottom repeatedly confirmed" hit me hard. I've never waited for it.
---
So now I don't dare to move during rebounds, but something feels off, right?
---
Holding on at that moment is truly tormenting. I doubt anyone who persists is human.
---
Is it to escape death or to miss opportunities? I ask myself this question a hundred times and can't find an answer.

Really, during rebounds my hands tremble the most, and I've seen many cases of cutting losses until bleeding.
---
Well said, the wave confirming the bottom is the biggest test of mentality, most people can't hold on.
---
I just want to know if anyone can really stay calm for three seconds during a rebound, anyway I can't do it.
---
Holding on through the first wave of surge? Ha, that's too difficult. If I hadn't been killed ten times, I wouldn't believe it.
---
Every time I say next time I will wait, but when the rebound comes, I still act quickly first.
---
During those rebounds of BTC, watching the limit-up directly break the defense, how do you improve your mentality?
---
It's hard to tell the difference between a trap and a reversal; only after the fact do you realize.
---
Controlling the rhythm sounds easy, but in reality, it's a death match with your own fear and greed.
---
Many people's losses come from this—rash decisions during rebounds can ruin a lifetime.
---
Three seconds of calm? I think I need three days.

It's the same old story... This is exactly what I think when I monitor the market late at night. Despite gas fees soaring over 200 Gwei, I still couldn't resist and cut my position, saving myself from loneliness.
