Ah, crypto trading, this amazing plunge into madness hoping, against all odds that you will come out victorious aka rich in btc aka make a profit aka beat the loonies. Yes, that's the fool's dream who, with no previous trading experience, decides that crypto trading is actually not that hard.

But the reality of the market hits you in the head and fast. Oh yes, you made some smart trades in the beginning and made a few bucks, that's what got you into it in the first place. No one stays after losing some money, it's the wins that are used as HOOK..
The very real, very present FEELING that you will make more money, faster and forever and more, it will be easy! That's the BAIT.
And you, my dear stupid friend, my simpleton unrealistic comrade, my dunce noob...YOU BITE!
YOU SWALLOW!
YOU GRIN even as you get that very pointy hook deeper in your wide open stupid mouth.

LOOK AT YOUR STUPID FACE!

Too late, oh..way too late, the realization that you are just a fish, now caught and took for all you are worth, in a sea of fishes, food for the REAL traders and sharks and whales that will not even say thank you as they burps out your sad remains after they had their way with you.

So HAHAHAHA I am here to laugh at you in this post?
Noup. I am here to admit that I am just as fishy as you. Here's the story of how I realized this sad sad truth.

In poker, a lot of people will say that they prefer to play with people who know how to play vs people who are noobs and crazy. They argue that you can't know or predict what a noob will do and for sure, he won't understand their fancy good plays and call like morons, losing them all the money.
Oh, what a pervasive view on poker that is. You'll hear it at all levels. People playing low stakes whining they can't beat these fishy low stakers but for sure, they'd kill the better players at midstakes. If only they ever got a bankroll...

So here I am arguing to a REAL trader how crypto is unpredictable and stupid and no amount of TA, of market research, of information will help me beat it. EVER. It's populated by stupid people.

By now, you should see the paradox. If you are good and people are stupid why can't you beat the low stake, or the crypto market?

The reveal

That's something that BAD players say. A good player will want to play with bad, noobs, novice players ALL DAY LONG. Because they'll make such immense mistakes that simply, it won't matter if they understand or not what he's doing. It's like playing with drunks. Eventually, the money will go your way.

Same for the trading, a crypto market is so young and undeveloped, the players so inexperienced and weak that...to quote my trader amigo " Is like being in kindergarten playing high stakes. It's awesome!"

So yes, I keep saying idiotic stuff that people who don't get it keep saying and propagate it like the scripture while the real good players don't say much, just laugh and ad numbers in their btc adresses. Sometimes they'll even agree with you, encourage you to put more in, surely it will turn around for you!! Then they buy a boat.

Don't be a fish!
