Buying is afraid of peaking, selling is afraid of selling too early. In the end, this whole market is like a gigantic poker game where everyone thinks they hold the winning hand.
Many times we focus solely on technical analysis, watching green and red candles while forgetting one thing: this market is not just us and the chart, but a game between people. Big players, market makers, exchanges, and all those “big shots” in the shadows, along with millions of small traders like us... all are observing and trying to guess each other's next move. This is the Game Theory, crypto version.
Big players don’t just sell off because they want to take profits. Sometimes they drive the price down just to scare others into selling, so they can scoop up cheap assets. A well-timed FUD news release when prices are sensitive is also a strategic move. Every action has a purpose, creating a chain reaction. Whether we FOMO buy in or panic sell off, that is also a counter move to them.
In this brain-teasing game, being smarter doesn’t always mean winning. Sometimes, the winner is the one who understands the rules of the game and, most importantly... understands themselves well. Knowing one's limits, playing according to one's own plan, rather than chasing after every move of others.
In the end, only your own wallet is real. Are you playing your own game, or getting swept up in the game of the big players?
