I bought some crypto a while back$HYPE at a cost of 73,
but the very next day it just tanked all the way down to the 50s,
I’m a bit bummed out, stuck at the top, and didn’t dare to add to my position,
a lot of folks are bullish on the DEX scene,#Hyperliquid it's a top-tier project,
the hype has been consistently high; I saw it go from 38 to 73,
I wanted to wait for a dip to buy more, but it just kept climbing and didn’t wait for anyone,
so I FOMOed in at the 70s, and I've been holding for half a month,
now it’s back up to 76, though I still haven't sold,
looking back, the 50s were a good opportunity to add,
but I know I’m not cut out for swing trading,
like most retail traders, I just chase the pumps and panic sell.

I really admire those players who can consistently profit from swing trading.
They have their own strategies and techniques
watching charts, candlesticks, market sentiment, and project updates
Short-term trading requires judgment and execution
deeply analyze projects, when to buy, when to stack more, when to sell
having your own indicators and discipline
ordinary retail traders don't do deep research, they follow FOMO into chasing pumps
when market sentiment shifts
it can easily drop again, getting wrecked and panicking out
most people buy the ups, not the downs, fearing losses and worrying about risks
handing their wallets over to market emotions

The investment market requires learning; only a few make profits
If you lack market insight and don't like watching charts or candlesticks
the most suitable strategy is#BTCHOLDER to
hold on and wait for the cycle, either earning passively or going to zero
skipping the laborious middle stages

The Nine Gods mentioned in the (HODL Bitcoin) series of articles that
HODLing Bitcoin means ignoring price and sentiment
exchanging limited funds for more$BTC ,
it's suitable to stack up and buy the dip when prices are low
DCA in the range and be cautious at high price levels
HODLing isn't about feelings, it's about discipline, no FOMO and no chasing highs
Stick to long-term thinking, change your wealth perspective with Bitcoin
The optimal strategy is
Continuous buying → Long-term holding → Waiting for time to compound returns
Of course, HODLing isn't easy,
you'll experience impulse, loneliness, boredom, and doubt
as others trade daily, get rich daily, and flaunt profits
silently HODLing is a huge psychological test
HODLing BTC means finding a long-term value asset you believe in
using spare cash to keep buying and then letting time do its thing

HODLing BTC and chasing trends are two different strategies
DCA won't make you rich overnight
chasing trends could multiply your investment in a month or lead to a complete loss in a flash
everyone has different expectations and profit strategies
I prefer a chill strategy, can handle loneliness, and fit the former
if you like the thrill, enjoy the rollercoaster volatility
and love to FOMO with a crowd, then chase trends
catching the right trend could be your first pot of gold
but if you chase the wrong one, you'll be back to square one, screwing screws at the factory
I hope we can find our own playbook and profit strategies in the crypto space
