Trading reveals human nature most clearly. When the market is falling, everyone around is full of keyboard warriors and sarcastic remarks. When the market rebounds and makes money, these same people instantly become sycophants, with no bottom line at all.

To be honest, true cultivation lies in the details — staying rational during losses and maintaining integrity when making money. This is the appearance a soulful trader should have.

I hope we can all cultivate ourselves properly, not letting the market sway our character. No matter how the market moves, keep a relaxed mindset, and things will go smoothly.

Really, when losing money, those people disappear quickly; when making money, they pop up again wanting to latch onto your coattails... Human nature is just like that.

You're absolutely right, it's really a mirror that reveals true nature. When losing money, they hide far away; when making profits, they come to lick. --- I've seen too many of these. When the market drops, they immediately become keyboard warriors; when it rebounds, they start clinging to big players. --- Cultivation and manners, indeed, can't withstand tests. I truly admire those who can still smile when losing money. --- The most annoying are these flip-floppers, swaying with the wind. Making money isn't that hard; the hard part is not losing connection. --- Morality? In the crypto world? You're overthinking, haha. --- When losing money, they see clearly that these people are not genuine traders, just gamblers. --- That's right, but most people simply can't do it. The moment the market drops, all their cultivation is gone. --- Having a relaxed mindset is indeed key; the problem is everyone wants to get rich quickly—how can it be easy? --- That's why big players make more—they don't follow the trend and aren't driven by human nature.

Hi, I've seen through it. The people making money really have no bottom line.

That's right, those people are really outrageous when losing money, and they come back to lick when they make a profit... human nature is just like that.

It's so realistic—everyone's an expert when losing, but after making a profit, everyone licks below the bottom line.

Really, every time there's a sharp drop, you can see who the real friends are and who are just keyboard warriors... When you're losing money, everyone disappears; when it bounces back, they all come out to flatter. It's quite ironic. It's easy to say, but the key is to actually do it... In this day and age, traders with integrity are truly rare. I almost forget what they look like. Cultivation? Let's earn some money first and then talk about cultivation haha. Having a relaxed mindset sounds simple, but who can really stay calm when the market hits the limit down... To not be swayed by the market personality? Bro, that requires a strong mental fortitude. It sounds good, but most people, including myself, are still controlled by the market trends.

Once again, someone who has been liquidated says they are in a relaxed state of mind? Bro, are you joking with me? When the market dips, I would jump off a building. --- A thousand gold can't buy early knowledge; being rational during losses? When I got liquidated, I was only rational enough to have one pair of underwear left. --- Sounds good, but the key is to survive until the rebound day. No matter how well-mannered someone is, dying on the way to bottom fishing is useless. --- What manners? If you don't hold the risk control points, everything is pointless. My deep lesson from heavy losses is enough. --- Being able to maintain integrity when making money, I can't even see the liquidation price when I profit. --- Human nature is indeed the most genuine. When it falls, everyone is an expert; when it rises, everyone is a sycophant—no exceptions. --- When the borrowing rate rises, the mentality is gone. Don't talk to me about manners; I’ve even over-leveraged during margin calls. --- Market moves arbitrarily, but my collateral ratio is what matters, haha.
