Are you also trying to bottom out like this?

Buy when it drops sharply, buy when it drops for a long time, buy when the chart looks good, and buy when you feel "it's about time."

And then? You end up losing everything.

This is the fundamental difference between retail investors and professional traders.

Retail investors look at the numbers:

“Dropped 30%,” “Price hit a new low,” “Fell for a week,” “Should rebound soon,”

All feelings. The market doesn’t care about your feelings.

What do professional traders look at? One thing: **Has the selling pressure died out?**

Basically, three things must all happen:

First → Retail investors can no longer sell (exhaustion of active sell orders)

Second → The liquidation of margin calls is complete (passive selling pressure ends, forced liquidations stop)

Third → Large funds quietly push up the price, using buy orders to counter remaining sell orders (main force protecting the market)

Only when all three are in place does a true bottom form.

Missing any one of them means:

The "bottom" you see is actually:

A graveyard for bulls → A rebound that gets crushed again

A swamp of emotions → Start of panic selling

Areas overlooked by the main force → Continued selling

Areas where shorts haven't closed their positions → Continued breakdowns

Here's the difference: $BTC $ETH When the price is around 3000 yuan, retail investors say "It's a good opportunity to buy," while professional traders say "Wait a bit longer, still falling." Why? Because there are still sellers out there. When the sell orders dry up completely, and three consecutive attempts to sell fail, then you can call it the bottom.

Remember this: **It's not the lowest point that’s the bottom, but the point where it stops falling.**
