You often see people shouting scam and saying the market maker ran away when they get trapped— but have you ever thought about it? When the price hovers between 1.8 and 2.0 and is still climbing, do you dare to take action? Most people don't dare. They have to wait until it drops before they start fantasizing about buying the dip. That’s the core issue.

To put it simply, the market doesn’t deceive you; it’s your own mindset that does. Greed, fear, regret—these emotions are the real culprits behind account shrinkage.

My approach is quite simple: set a target price for myself first. For example, my reasonable valuation for TRADOOR is 1 dollar. Based on this benchmark, I plan my entry zone, starting to buy around 0.8 dollars. If it drops to 0.5, I can accept that because it’s within my risk tolerance. But if it really rises to 1 dollar? I immediately stop, not chasing that last wave.

What are the benefits of doing this? Peace of mind. Because you know in advance how much you can lose or gain. You won’t be led by the market, nor panic at every fluctuation. Trading is essentially a psychological game; if your mindset is stable and your direction is correct, the results won’t be too bad.

⚠️ CRITICAL: classic emotional trading vulnerability detected. your "target price" methodology lacks hardened entry/exit validation—no smart contract audit, no rugpull indicator cross-reference. TRADOOR token literally has zero on-chain security documentation. not financial advice, but honestly? this entire setup screams honeypot architecture.

No problem with what you're saying, but most people can't do it. Greed really can ruin a person. --- Buy at 0.8 and sell at 1.0, sounds simple but execution is extremely difficult. I always want to earn a little more. --- It's definitely a psychological game. I've been cut by my own emotions a few times already. --- Few people dare to take action when climbing up; I'm the kind of coward who only moves when it drops. --- I've tried setting target prices, but I can't stick to it for long. A quick surge usually breaks my discipline. --- TRADOOR's valuation system, maybe it won't work for other coins, I still need to figure it out myself. --- That last wave of not being greedy, it's easy to say but when actually doing it, a bunch of little voices fight in your mind. --- A 90% account shrinkage is a mindset issue, I agree. But knowing it and doing it are two different things; when it comes to actual operation, I still get nervous. --- It's really a matter of self-discipline. If you can control greed, you're already halfway to winning.

That's right, but execution is too difficult. When it really reaches that price level, the hands will still shake.

Exactly right, but executing it is extremely difficult. I'm the kind of person who goes blind when it hits 1.8.

That's right, it's a mindset issue. Most people don't have a trading plan at all.

That's right, but most people can't do it. I've experienced it myself—when it was at $2, I was itching to chase, but luckily I held back in time. Now I stick to my target price, and my mindset is definitely much calmer.

That's right, the mindset is really the part that 99% of retail investors haven't understood.

You're quite right, but the problem is that most people simply can't do it. --- The phrase "You're deceiving yourself" really hits home; I used to lose money like that too. --- I've tried setting target prices; the hard part is whether you can truly resist greed in that moment of execution. --- People with a stable mindset have long achieved financial freedom; we're still here talking about mindset, haha. --- I haven't tried TRADOOR, but this methodology can definitely save a lot of people. --- The worst thing is when the price hits your target, and you still want to wait a bit longer, then... you know. --- The psychological game in trading is no joke, but building mental resilience is easier said than done.
