The hardest part of trading isn't buying or selling—it's doing absolutely nothing.
When the market goes sideways, the urge to "force" a trade is at an all-time high. But history shows that capital preservation during boring phases is what funds your wins during the real trends. Look at how $BTC and $ETH consolidate for weeks, building structure before making their next major moves.
Zoom out. If your strategy relies on constant action, you might just be feeding the order books. Sometimes, sitting on your hands is the most profitable trade you can make.
How do you handle these quiet, sideways markets? Do you step away completely, or do you try to scalp the tight ranges?
