Abstract generation in progress

Everyone comes to trading for the dream of financial freedom, quick money, working anywhere with a laptop... But this is the harsh truth that no one wants to admit: 💸 Most traders lose money. And no, it's not because of a scam market or "whales manipulating". The real reason?

They rush into the market with a "get rich quick" mentality, without a plan, and without knowledge. 📉 The Mistakes of New Traders: No risk managementTrend following on TikTok, Crypto TwitterEntering trades due to FOMO, exiting trades due to panicTrading based on emotions, not on strategy 👉 A pump - a rug - account goes to 0. 💀 🧠 A Real Trader Thinks Differently: They do not gamble — they are like marksmen, patient and precise.
