WHY DO YOU KEEP ASKING ABOUT PRICE SO MUCH?

WHY DO YOU KEEP ASKING ABOUT PRICE SO MUCH?

The problem lies in the wrong frame of reference when you first enter the market. Faulty input leads to flawed thinking, resulting in poor actions and bad outcomes.

I constantly receive questions like:

  • “Can I buy at this price yet?”
  • “Should I wait for a lower price?”
  • “Is this the bottom?”
  • “BTC is at 108k, is it still good to LONG?”
  • “It’s at 123k now, will it go to 180k?”


All of these revolve around PRICE, but in reality, price isn't what you should focus on. What's important is understanding market movements and trends.

Many of you DCA blindly at resistance, support, or based on on-chain data, thinking the price will reverse or bounce… but it doesn’t. So why?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let me give you an analogy:

Imagine you're hiking the Alps.

You start early in the morning. When you're tired, you rest. When the scenery is beautiful, you stop and enjoy it. When you're thirsty or hungry, you take a break. Eventually, you reach the top (PEAK).

Did you ever ask your friend along the way:

  • "How many meters have we climbed?"
  • "How many meters left to the top?"


Of course not.
You just know you're ascending, and when you reach the peak, you’ll know.
Uptrend is like climbing up, downtrend is climbing down.
You don’t need to know your exact altitude — you just need to know whether you’re going up or down, and when you’re at the top, you’ll feel it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The market is the same.
When it goes up, you know it’s going up.
When it goes down, you know it’s going down.
When it’s the peak, you’ll know.
When it’s the bottom, you’ll feel it.

There's no need to obsess over:

  • “Is this the top?”
  • “Is this the bottom?”


Why?
Because when you're fixated on the real-time price, without understanding market movement, you’re being led by price — not leading your trades.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In summary:

Stop letting price control your mind.

Focus on trends and market movement, and you’ll know where you are.

When climbing, you know you’re climbing. When peaking, you’ll know it’s time to pause. Simple as that.
