๐ญ DAY 34: FOMO and FUD. Don't let them manipulate your mind
In the crypto world, news doesn't always serve to inform; sometimes it serves to manipulate. If you want to survive here, you must learn to identify these two psychological phenomena.
๐ 1. FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out)
It's the "Fear of Missing Out".
How it feels: You see a coin rise by 50%, everyone on social media is talking about it, saying it will go to the moon, and you feel a desperate urgency to buy NOW.
The danger: Almost always when you feel FOMO, the price is already at its highest point. You buy at the peak and, shortly after, the price corrects and you get "stuck".
The cure: If it has already risen a lot, you arrived too late. Wait for the pullback or look for another opportunity. The market always gives second chances.
๐ 2. FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt)
It's the "Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt".
How it feels: Suddenly negative news appears: "A country bans crypto", "A protocol was hacked", "Bitcoin is going to zero". You feel panic and want to sell everything to save what you have left.
The danger: Many times FUD is artificially created by big investors so that the price drops, you sell cheap and they can buy more at a discount.
The cure: Investigate the source. Is it real news or just a rumor? Look at the chart: Has something fundamental changed in the project or is it just noise?
๐ง Today's lesson:
When there is a lot of euphoria (FOMO), be careful. When there is a lot of fear (FUD), look for opportunities. Financial markets are a mechanism for transferring money from the impatient to the patient.
๐ฅ Tomorrow on Day 35: What is a Whale? We will learn to track the footsteps of big investors to see what they are doing.
What has been your worst moment of FOMO? That coin you bought when it was already through the roof? Confess in the comments, we don't judge here! ๐
