Having seen through many people's trading habits, especially the most annoying type—those who immediately go short whenever someone calls for a sell-off. This logic is truly absurd, relying entirely on emotional trading and following the crowd.

Frankly, these traders are the easiest to be taught a lesson by the market. They ignore fundamentals, don't analyze technicals, and just follow their emotions. When a big influencer calls for a short, they open a position without hesitation. When the market reverses, they end up crying and blaming others.

The funniest part is that these people will never learn to judge independently. With such volatile market movements, you're still chasing highs and lows, following the trend to short—ultimately just giving money to rational traders. Truly profitable traders never operate like this.

Haha seriously, people like this deserve to get liquidated as a lesson, serves them right for throwing money away. --- Followers always end up as bagholders anyway, nothing much to say about it. --- So true, I have idiots like this around me too, constantly jumping on whatever someone calls for shorting, then they end up losing their shirts. --- Independent thinking is something some people probably won't learn in their entire lives. --- Those trading on emotions definitely deserve to get ground down by the market, no problem with that. --- This type of people are just money-giving tools, always catching the bag perfectly every single time. --- One word from a big influencer and they rush in, I really can't understand how their brains work. --- Can't stand these mindless followers, they mess up the order book every single time. --- Rational trading vs emotional trading, the outcome has never been a mystery. --- It's 2024 and there are still people playing chase-up-sell-down games, truly market-chosen bagholders.

Follow-the- crowd guys will never make money; I've seen through this long ago.

Those who follow the trend to short are all newbies; they'll be cut off sooner or later.

To be honest, these kinds of retail investors are really everywhere. Following the trend will only get you beaten. --- When a big influencer shouts, everyone rushes in. Serves them right for liquidation; there's nothing more to say. --- I really dislike traders like this—no brains of their own but still causing others to lose money. Pure market trash. --- Laughable. Those who traded based on emotions have already been eliminated. Why are they still shouting here? --- Both shorting and longing are fine, but I'm really worried about you not understanding anything and going all-in. That's truly hopeless. --- Can you really make money by listening to big influencers? I think they're just giving away others' money. --- Independent judgment is something 99% of people simply can't do. It's just self-deception. --- The common flaw of followers: anyway, the ones losing money are always these people. It's a pattern.

nah, watching these emotion-driven degenerates chase every influencer's call is literally free money tbh. they're not even reading mempool action or analyzing actual on-chain flow before panic shorting... it's sandwich protection wet dream fr
