Fear or greed

[LUCKMCFLY]

The volatility of the crypto market is an attraction for crypto investors because they can profit from the highly volatile crypto market. When the market goes down we can enter and sell coins when the market goes up. If we can enter and exit correctly we can profit from crypto. and I have been doing this for more than 8 years.

I'm very glad you can do that successfully, I think I can't reach that level yet, it would take a lot of time, and of course it's clear that when there's a low price in the market you should take advantage of it with good leverage, that's what the smartest do, since leverage helps us operate with more profits knowing that the short is in process, but that requires a lot of expertise, and also getting rid of the fear of what you might lose, even though I only operate with the money that I'm willing to lose.

Hopefully this falls under trading.
I'm gonna make it short
There are two emotions i believe dictates trade and leads to either gains or losses. Fear and greed.
They are like every investors companion.
Which do you think is more dangerous?

There are only two things we can encounter in the trading op, either right or wrong, to make a strategy or analysis based on the chart that can be read, right? What else? Either we are carried away by our emotions or by the right or wrong application of our emotions.

Now, which of the two are we more afraid of making a mistake or not? Because if you are afraid of doing trading, don't trade, that's my advice to you, and when greed exists in you in trading, of course you have no fear, of course you have full heart, because you think you will make a lot of money, even if you don't pay attention to your own lack of knowledge in trading, and you will realize that your trading fund is already liquid. That's why it's too late when you realize it.

I have only been learning to trade for 5 years, so I have not been able to reach a good level and I must always focus and learn to trade to be more skilled and have good skills in trading.
There are many things that I have not mastered, fundamental and technical analysis of reading market movements or trends. And I am grateful to have friends who can help me learn all of that.
I also want to become a professional trader even though it takes a long time and always be focused, patient and disciplined in learning to trade.

Learning for 5 years is actually enough to be a professional trader. Not sure why you said you are still not in a good level. I'm sure you are experienced trader already. Sure, we must always have the intention to improve our skills and knowledge. Even a professional trader never stops to learn, they want more and more knowledge/skills. Fundamental and technical analysis are 2 basic analysis, I think you have mastered them. However, it is good that you keep humble and never said you are a top trader.

As far as I know, right now everything is green, and that means Greed, everyone wants to buy crypto, whatever type of coin they buy. I see Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, Solana and even all Meme coins all turn green, meaning many people buy them. Seeing the OP's question between Fear and Greed, I'm sure that the position is Greed now.
Maybe the OP wrote the topic before, the market was red or Fear, but now I'm sure according to my view on Coinmarketcap, it's Greed. I saw that the Fear and Greed column on COinmarketcap was in the middle and the fitting score was 73% for Greed.

There is a fear that whether profit is made or not, loss has to be suffered.  And if we have no knowledge about the selected token and have taken it as such, there is danger in it.

If the trader is too greedy, then he has to suffer losses and it leads us to fear. If decisions are taken greedily and at the right time, success is sure to come.

Already there is uncertainty on the crypto market, many traders and investors know that market can dump heavily at any time, Now the greatest fear is that bodybody knows when the  market will dump, and it has been the crypto market concern since the invention of Bitcoin.
The market remains very unpredictable, and a dump can take place unawares.
Now, it is very clear that there is profit/loss in every business and both are the possible outcomes. A good risk tolerance, and well planned entry and exit criteria will help to reduce fear of losses.

Yes, that has been the basic approach, buy low, sell high. But it is not that easy as it sounds. It's really hard to predict which coins are going to go down and which one is going to increase in short amount of time to make profit.

So it will take time and experience as well to really make that right decision to make profit as a trading. That's why I believed that it is not for everyone as it is very hard job as well. So for those who are very successful already, congrats to that as they went into a lot of early pains before they found the secret on how to make a lot of money in this market.

Everyone has at times made mistakes while trading, which is quite common since trading is a fast paced business. Losing something is sometimes painful, however it affords a chance to learn, and develop. The time in the market can put a lot of pressure and make us get to the limit of our patience and energy at some times, but it is also important to be able to know when to step back and in effect set a healthier and better systematic move forward.

When we pay more attention, it is possible to avoid disparity when exchanging goods and services without hurrying. Time off will also give a much more mature view at the table which will help us come back with a better strategy on how to win the battle. Each failure as well as every success we get is a process of learning who we are and how things work.

Don’t regret too much the things happened. I hope the next time I see you, you will be stronger and I hope you’ll get well soo mate.

Thank you very much, you are absolutely right, what I have learned from experience is that even if I do 1 or 2 operations a day it seems fine to me, I can't abuse it because when we reach the limit we don't see any operations and if I insist I'm sure I will lose money, of course it should be noted that I am doing 1 minute trading and well that type of trading is new to me, it has different foundations, medium or long term trading is not the same, here it is more volatile, it is more insecure trading and for me it is very attached to technical analysis, supports, ceilings, lateralities , trends, all of this are going to that plane, the fundamentals of patterns work a lot, I think that is what makes us learn more.

Yes, when the market is green and demand is getting higher because we see the price of bitcoin that has touched ATH $ 88K, this is greed.
but we as old holders of crypto coins have benefited from the good movement in the crypto market as a result of Trump's election as US president.

Of course, it is good to see the market is advancing with solid demand, especially, as Bitcoin got to a new price point. That is why it already felt a major advantage as long-term holders of crypto to be in the thick of such inertia especially bearing in mind the positive outcome of the US presidential elections that seem to be charting a good course for the market already. In my opinion it is about time for us to reap off the fruits of our patience and trust towards this investment since now the price of Bitcoin is rising bit by bit to $100,000 while at the same time being fully aware of the hitches that may come with the future investment.

I understand, but what type of trading do you do? Because there are short-term, medium-term, long-term, and each of those trades have their fundamentals that are met, and this varies according to the seasons, for example, at 1 minute the analysis varies a lot because for me a technical analysis works best, but in the long term it works a lot to have a good vision of what can happen in the world and according to that reflect it in the market, depending on the type of trading you do, it is easier to focus, reading books is essential.

          -      Actually, fear and greed should not become a habit of a trader or holder. We know that it doesn't help us, and we know that. Those two will not bring us any good help, but instead it will put us in a bad situation in the end.

Although sometimes we feel fear, we can overcome and resist it so that fear does not control us; instead, we should be the ones who control fear,
and it will not control us in the end.

Experience can make us understand about bad emotions that we must control. Greed and fear are two bad emotions that make people unable to think clearly to make decisions. And with knowledge and experience will make us have good emotional management. because many opportunities are missed if we experience fear and greed. We must be able to do our best in trading and investing.

Absolutely right, Emotions tell us how to run a house, how to control feelings like greed and fear, which are quite common in share trading. Each of these emotions can hinder clear thinking and, therefore, decision making cannot be its best.

In other words we can take good things that happen to us without necessarily being overwhelmed by the unfortunate ones. This helps to reach the best outcomes and make the investment way less stressful, more lasting.

IMO, both are indeed dangerous for traders, but in my experience, greed is the worst. People who are afraid will not make significant decisions, because they usually choose to be safer, while people who have a high greedy soul usually hold back to get higher profits.. their expectations will always be high, so when greed makes their situation turn around, they will fall very deep and even full of regret.

Selfishness should be outdone in trading, since that aspect leads traders to go after even bigger profits with no respect to risks. This trait usually makes us remain in positions that can actually become counterproductive. Argue against decisions based on emotions and instead remain as rational as you can be. Thus, we strive to keep equilibrium and diminish the chance to regret a decision in the future considerably.
