In theory, it's understood that a rising market is a good time to unload assets. But in practice? Every time the coin price soars, policy interventions come in to disrupt, and the market immediately reverses and declines. No matter how much psychological preparation you do, it's useless—before you can react, the rebound is back. The contradiction lies in the fact that market fluctuations often exceed expectations. During Trump's administration, policy directions had a clear impact on the crypto market, increasing volatility and making timing especially difficult. What seems like a simple buy low and sell high strategy is actually full of uncertainties in practice. The problem isn't a lack of understanding of the principles, but that market rhythm and policy rhythm are always misaligned. Want to sell precisely at the highest point? It's difficult.

Honestly, policies are just a black swan generator; no one can predict them accurately.
People are greedy, and once they know they should run, they just can't escape.
There are always more bagholders at the top than those who sell the top, that's the reality.
Let's wait and see what kind of tricks Trump is planning this time.
The point about rhythm misalignment is spot on; the main players thrive on this.
Selling at the highest point? You're overthinking it, buddy.

Haha, this is my daily pain point—perfect theory but disastrous execution in practice.
---
Once policies are announced, you immediately know whether there's potential, especially during this period, it's hard to react in time.
---
Almost there every time, just that tiny bit of loss.
---
Timing is basically gambling; no one can predict it accurately.
---
I really want to know who has actually sold at the highest point—honestly answer.
---
When the market rhythm and policy rhythm are out of sync, retail investors get harvested—that's an iron law.
---
Knowing the principles, what's the use? It's all about luck and mindset.
---
Want to precisely sell high and buy low? I think everyone finds it difficult; we're all guessing.
---
Got caught again, that frustration inside is huge.

One policy disruption and everything is over; no matter how strong your mindset, it's all in vain.

That policy disruption was really incredible. I always think I've got it figured out, but then a single announcement ruins everything.

Alright, alright, stop talking. I'm the one repeatedly educated by policy, every time thinking I can sell at a high, but then 🤡
