📈 In the early bull market, there’s no need to be afraid of missing out
Even if you’re currently in the early stage of a bull market, there’s no need to blindly chase the price just because you’re afraid of missing out. You can refer to the price action in the early phase of the 2023 bull market:
1️⃣ Market rhythm On the daily chart, prices keep chopping sideways and making new highs; after touching the upper band, upward momentum weakens, and the market first goes through a daily pullback; after the pullback ends, it rebounds again to test the upper band once more, and then comes another pullback at the three-day-line level.
2️⃣ Current outlook BTC will most likely continue to trade sideways in a back-and-forth manner, repeatedly probing new highs. Watch the resistance around 85,000 in the short term—if it gets rejected, it may first pull back to around 77,000; then, if it rebounds and reaches 88,000~89,000, another pullback at the three-day-line level may follow, and it could even revisit the 70,000 area.
So, missing out isn’t scary; chasing when the price is already high is. There will still be opportunities to buy the dip later.
3️⃣ Why do I believe Bitcoin will definitely see a pullback?
First, to shake out the long side and digest profit-taking. Second, the market needs time and space—it can’t rise in a straight line the whole way while letting everyone make money easily.
What the bull market lacks the least is opportunities; what truly tests people is patience. Don’t chase strength, don’t panic—wait for the dip entry point that belongs to you.

🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧 The market rises and falls, yet people’s hearts remain steady. It’s okay to go slower—long-term thinking, and time will deliver the answer. $BNB
The interest rate has been raised. On 2026-09-16, the U.S. Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point (0.25%) rate increase, raising the target range for the federal funds rate to 3.75%–4.00%. The resolution was approved 12:0. The official statement emphasized that inflation is still too high—this is the first rate hike since 2023. (federalreserve.gov)
For the crypto market, rate hikes typically put pressure on high-volatility risk assets through higher risk-free rates and expectations for the dollar and liquidity. However, the immediate market reaction also depends on whether the market had already fully priced in the move, as well as subsequent policy guidance and inflation data.
🧧🎁🧧🎁🧧🎁 On September 17, the crypto industry saw multiple highly关注able sector updates and events. The core news mainly centered on regulatory roundtables, traditional financial giants entering the space, and industry summits, among other topics: 1. The U.S. SEC holds a 24-hour on-chain stock trading roundtable On September 17, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) hosted an important roundtable on “24-hour on-chain stock trading.” The meeting invited traditional financial giants such as BlackRock, Nasdaq, the New York Stock Exchange, and Robinhood, along with crypto industry participants and institutions. Key agenda: The meeting aims to discuss the rule framework for enabling U.S. equities to settle on-chain 24/7. Technology route competition: The market is currently focused on which blockchain—Ethereum or Solana—will take on the role of the primary underlying settlement infrastructure. Solana holds an advantage in terms of tokenized U.S. stock volume and low fees, while Ethereum is favored by traditional finance due to its deep institutional compliance foundation (such as BlackRock’s BUIDL fund). 2. The Fourth U.S. Crypto Banking, Compliance & Stablecoin Summit (CBC Summit USA) kicks off The 4th annual CBC Summit USA was held on September 17 at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. Main focus: This summit brings together senior executives, regulators, and lawmakers across the industry. Key topics include crypto banking services, compliance frameworks, stablecoin development, and the deep integration of traditional finance with Web3. 3. Deeper cooperation between traditional industries and Web3 infrastructure Hyundai explores the Avalanche ecosystem: After successfully completing a pilot project, Hyundai is considering further expanding its related business and applications on the Avalanche (Avalanche Protocol) blockchain. Circle Arc mainnet goes live: Stablecoin issuer Circle’s Arc mainnet recently launched and has introduced support from payment giants such as Visa and Mastercard, injecting new momentum into the Web3 payments sector. Overall, the Web3 industry updates on September 17 show that traditional financial regulators and Wall Street capital are accelerating the process of bringing assets on-chain and strengthening compliance.

Real growth in trading comes from slowly growing small capital
By practicing with small capital and gradually building it up, what you’re really going through is a process of honing your mindset and understanding compounding.
Many people always want to get rich overnight, thinking they can make A8, A9 directly from a single trade. But from the underlying logic of trading, that directly goes against trading principles.
Why do so many people who suddenly get rich end up back at square one? Because they received a large unexpected windfall, but they didn’t build the kind of mindset, discipline, and understanding that matches that wealth.
The power of compounding never comes from extreme returns, but from having long enough time for “pretty good” performance.
What truly matters isn’t how much you made in one year, but whether you can go through wave after wave of volatility and still stay in the game.
A strategy that keeps you anxious every night and makes you change your plan frequently, no matter how excellent it sounds in theory, is hard to carry out consistently over the long run.
Trading isn’t about who can make the most money in one night, but about who can last long enough—so that time turns “pretty good” returns into astonishing results.
It’s okay to go slower. Stability is the real starting point of compounding.
Control Your Desires, Manage Your Fear You think you’re researching the market. In reality, the market is researching you. Study your greed, study your fear, study your luck-attempts, study when you’ll lose control.
You must rid yourself of all tedious, distracting clutter.
A trading career is radically different from ordinary life. Trading, at its core, is a minimalist way of living.
You should proactively eliminate unnecessary distractions from your life, keeping your private life simple and calm. Only then will you have enough energy to repeatedly make rational, composed decisions that are fully thought through.
In fact, trading and life influence each other:
If life is chaotic, your trading judgments are more likely to become distorted; if your trading routine is frantic and messy, it will also drag down your personal life.
So a truly mature trader should align their life rhythm with their trading rhythm.
Especially watch out for—decision fatigue.
What this industry fears most is not a lack of opportunities, but making too many meaningless decisions every day, and then—through exhaustion, anxiety, and impulsiveness—ending up with wrong judgments.
Trading doesn’t require you to make life complicated. Instead, you should remove everything that’s irrelevant.
Save energy for what truly matters: waiting, judging, execution, and controlling risk.
Traditional IQ tests measure language, logic, and spatial reasoning, but these don’t determine whether a trader can stand at the top of the market. True elite trading ability comes from three core qualities: First, probability intuition. Not predicting the future, but quickly judging win rates in uncertainty—knowing when to act, and when to wait. Second, emotional control. When facing massive unrealized losses, consecutive stop-outs, and market panic, still staying calm and not letting greed and fear take control. Third, pattern recognition skills. From complex price fluctuations, fund flows, and market sentiment, capturing patterns that others can’t see. These abilities can’t be replicated just by reading a few books or using a few indicators. It’s more like a “brain trading system” formed through long-term training— the prefrontal cortex handles rational decisions, the amygdala handles emotional responses, and truly outstanding traders can keep both in balance. So, in the end, what the market truly competes on isn’t only knowledge and skills, but a person’s cognitive structure, psychological resilience, and the ability to deal with uncertainty. Trading is a war between you and your own brain. A real expert wins themselves first, then wins the market.

When the market is quiet and the action is light, it’s the best time to enhance your understanding. Truly excellent traders don’t read books to look for a “sure-win shortcut,” but to understand: Why does the world run this way? Why does wealth come into being? Why do cycles repeat? Where will future opportunities arise? Ordinary traders study prices; great traders study the market; and top traders study—history, cycles, human nature, technology, and the future. The following 20 books are worth reading for everyone who wants to stay in the market long-term. Part One: Understanding the Past—How the World Was Formed
