Why do you lose more money the more you focus on the market? Experts only do 'three looks' Do you like to keep an eye on the market when trading coins or stocks? It can be said that 90% of retail investors now habitually monitor the market for cryptocurrency trading. Observe how the market is moving, whether it is opening low or high, rising or falling. If you lose money on the currency you bought yourself, your whole mood will be depressed, uncomfortable, and even sigh. If the coins I bought were converted, my whole mood would be happy, excited, and even jumping while walking. This emotional fluctuation has two serious consequences: One is that physical and mental health is greatly affected: due to long-term monitoring, blood pressure fluctuates. If this continues, it will generate a lot of mental internal friction. Subsequently, hypertension, neurasthenia, heart disease, and other conditions may come towards you. The second is that an unstable inner state is prone to impulsive actions: due to the influence of emotions, the decisions you make are basically wrong, which may lead to blind pursuit of high, or make you eager to cut flesh, and ultimately deeply trapped, or empty regrets. Finally, the more one focuses on the market, the more they lose money, and many people end up feeling confused. So, smart investors tend to 'watch the market but not the market', that is, to detach themselves from the emotional fluctuations of being influenced by the market while watching the market, making themselves relaxed and at ease, only watching but not watching. How should we look at it? One is to look at the overall trend, not fluctuations. Market trends are the underlying dynamics of market cycles, macroeconomics, and industry prosperity. You don't need to constantly chase up and down prices, nor do you have to worry about temporary fluctuations in the market. You just need to be able to judge whether the market is a bull or bear market, whether policy guidance is increasing or decreasing, and whether funds are flowing out or in overall. This determines the position strategy and forms a "barometer" for investment. Secondly, focus on the main aspects rather than the secondary ones. You just need to focus on the holding targets and core tracks, cultivate only the core assets that you are familiar with, concentrate on studying the main logic, and ignore irrelevant individual coins, irrelevant themes, and miscellaneous market trends. As long as we grasp the main logic that determines value, we can achieve a clear vision. The third is to focus on the key, not the details. For individual coins, you just need to focus on their core indicators (such as valuation center, support pressure level, etc.), key price points, etc. These "pivot points" often have the ability to shift a thousand pounds and reveal the true intentions of the main funds in advance, thereby determining whether to hold or sell. At the end of the day, as long as you can read the market without staring at it, you can make rational decisions, which is called 'kung fu beyond poetry'. This is an investment wisdom that is not influenced by the market. People who do this can ultimately maintain their profitability and even make a big profit.
