#数字资产市场动态 $ETH Do frequent traders who cut losses often really have impulsive personalities?



Often, that's not the case.

When your life is under this kind of pressure—"I didn't make money this week, my credit card will be overdue" "No profit this month, I can't pay the mortgage" "No gains this quarter, no clue about my child's tuition"—do you still have the leisure to wait for the market rhythm? You simply can't wait. Impulsiveness isn't a personality flaw; it's driven by survival stress.

On the other hand, why are there always so many people losing money in the market? Because they are doing something statistically doomed to fail—their frequent trading against 95% of market participants. These 95% use their funds and losses to gradually clear the market fog, paving the way for the few who profit. The rule is brutally simple.

Thus, a vicious cycle forms: Poverty → Desire for quick turnaround → Frequent operations → Faster exit → Greater poverty.

Why can some people maintain stable profits? What they do may seem boring—they wait, observe, and occasionally make moves 95% of the time. It's not because they are smarter, but because they have the capital to endure this waiting. With a solid capital base, patience follows.

After years of navigating the crypto world, I've seen too many people make hasty decisions due to lack of buffer space. The real secret to trading isn't complicated—manage risk, recognize signals, find the rhythm, and stick to it long-term. But most people simply can't stick to such "stupid" methods.

What you might lack isn't necessarily technique, but a clear understanding: the market is always there; there's no need to be on the battlefield every moment.

That really hits home... It's just that there's no money to cushion the bottom line. Those who can truly sit back and win are the ones with a solid foundation. For us, with limited capital to begin with, a single pullback feels overwhelming, and there's no patience left.

That's so heartfelt. I need to remember the saying: "Only with principal can there be patience."

Really, in the face of survival pressure, all personalities have to give way. I've seen many people frequently cut losses because they lack buffer, it's not about being impatient at all. To put it simply, it's that old saying: only with capital backing can you endure; without money, no matter how stable, you can't persist.

That was harsh, it hurts. It's not that I don't want to wait, I just can't afford to wait.

Damn, that hits too close to home. You really can't play this game without capital.
