What are real big players like? They only make a move every few months or even years. It sounds simple, but is it really? There’s a prerequisite behind this. For mainstream coins like $BTC, can you really hold still when there’s even the slightest movement in the market? Can you stop yourself from checking the charts for just a few minutes? That’s the difference. Many people claim to be long-term holders, but their mindset has already been hijacked by market fluctuations. Trading mentality and execution often determine how much you ultimately earn, even more than timing the market or picking coins.

That really hits close to home. I'm the kind of person who talks about holding long-term, but just can't stop trading...

Haha, seriously, I'm the type who just can't control myself. If I don't check the market for five minutes, I get uncomfortable.

That hits too close to home. I'm the type who always says I'll hold long-term, but my fingers just can't stop... Watching the market makes my hands shake.

That's harsh, but I'm exactly the type who says I'll hold long-term, but as soon as the price goes up or down, I get itchy fingers.

What you said about mindset is so true. I often catch myself watching the charts again, haha.

That's right, mindset is really worth more than technical analysis.
