Why Do So Many Traders Get Trapped?

1. FOMO Hits Hard

When people see green candles, they panic. “If I don’t buy now, I’ll miss out!” Sound familiar? That’s FOMO. You rush in, buying at a high price, only to watch the market dip again.

2. It Looks Like a Recovery

After a big drop, even a small rally can seem like a full-blown comeback. But these surges are often just short-term blips. The market may dip again or just flatline, leaving you holding the bag.

3. Emotions Take Over

Let’s face it—trading is emotional. After watching your portfolio bleed during a dip, any green can feel like a lifeline. But acting on those emotions often leads to regret.

The Difference Between a Sell-Off Surge and a True Recovery

Sell-Off Surge

	•	A quick price jump after a dip.
	•	Fueled by panic buying and speculation.
	•	Often followed by another dip or flatlining.
	•	Lacks solid fundamentals.

Full Market Recovery

	•	A steady, sustainable price increase.
	•	Backed by real demand, positive news, or a stronger market trend.
	•	Builds over time, often lasting weeks or months.
	•	Signals a true shift in market sentiment.
