Regarding high-volatility tokens like $RIVER, timing is crucial. When the discussion on the forum is sufficiently heated and a large number of retail investors start to wail in losses, it is often a window for tentative positioning. If you really want to participate, consider following up after the fee settlement cycle.

The charm of these tokens lies in their extremity—soaring directly when rising, and halving during declines is just basic operation. In comparison, those altcoins that repeatedly bottom out and consolidate sideways for washouts and low liquidity tokens seem rather mediocre.

Of course, the premise is to have psychological preparation; frequent intense fluctuations are essentially a double-edged sword. Traders accustomed to this rhythm can find more opportunities; but if you keep getting caught and still chase after it, it’s of little significance.

nah look, this is just mile 20 energy. everyone's screaming about $RIVER but when the dust settles, fundamentals still matter more than volatility theatre. accumulation phases are real though, can't deny that timing window when retail's bleeding out.

nah, this is exactly how you end up slashed. timing the retail carnage? that's just cope for "i bought the top." network resilience beats volatility every single time, stake your conviction or don't bother.

Retail investors crying out and then taking action—I've heard this move too many times before, but the words are not wrong. Wait, the idea of a fee settlement cycle is interesting. I'll try it next time.

Retail investors crying out for help when making moves? Sounds good, I'm that fool who keeps chasing after being cut.

It's only an opportunity when retail investors are crying out, sounds good, but I'm always among those crying out. The phrase "cut in half basic operations" hit me hard; my basic operations are always cut in half. Maybe I should stick to those bottom-dwelling coins, at least my sleep quality is guaranteed. These kinds of coins are indeed exciting, but the result of the excitement is often my wallet screaming. Psychological preparation? I'm already psychologically broken, what more preparation is there? Testing the layout sounds sophisticated, but in reality, it's just a matter of luck. My luck has never been great.

It's only when retail investors are crying that it's the right time to jump in. That's a classic haha Human nature, always loving to chase highs and cut losses, cycle after cycle I still believe that extreme volatility requires an extreme mindset. Not everyone can handle it Stop blindly following the trend, complaining after losing money again and again This kind of coin is a gambler's paradise. It's exciting, but you really need to have strong willpower Many say they've gotten used to it, but in reality, they're still getting cut to pieces everywhere
