Ever notice how FOMO isn't really about missing out? It's your brain hitting the replay button on past wins. You made a solid call once, crushed it, banked the gains—and now every dip feels like "here's my chance again." That's FOMO talking. Not fear, just a pattern-matching machine trying to recreate yesterday's success. The thing is, markets don't repeat. But our brains sure do.

There's nothing wrong with that; it's just greed acting up—getting carried away after a big profit.

That's right, but it's like your mind is stuck on a loop, always trying to replicate the last get-rich-quick dream. The problem is, every market is different.

ngl this hits different. been accumulating since 2017 and every dip still feels like mile 20—that wall where your brain screams "sprint again!" but the fundamentals haven't moved. market cycles repeat, not price action. stay hydrated in the ultra-marathon, anon.

Basically, it's a gambler's mentality—after making a profit last time, you want to do it again, but every time you're caught in a trap.

Damn, you're so right. I always want to copy the happiness from the last wave.
