When the bull market arrives, many people are still calculating whether the weekend will see a pullback to fill the gap. But reality often hits hard—the real bull market doesn't follow this logic at all.



In a strong trend, what you miss isn't the price, but the psychological advantage. Those who miss out don't end up entering at lower prices later; instead, they are forced to buy in at increasingly higher levels. This is the power of FOMO. As the market continuously hits new highs, latecomers can only buy in at the top, making precise gap filling impossible.

Therefore, when the market truly starts to rise, instead of waiting for that gap fill opportunity that may never come, it's better to understand market psychology—during a bull market, gaps are usually filled quickly or directly bypassed. The real profit goes to those who get in early.

That's so true. Last time, I got caught off guard like this, and I took off immediately after waiting for the correction results. The hardest part about missing out is not losing money, but watching others make money while you panic and rush into the high positions. In a real bull market, there's no time to react. You either get in early or buy at the top—there's no third option. This psychological advantage really hit me. Those who entered early have more composure than latercomers. FOMO is just a ruthless harvesting machine; so many people get caught by it. It's really about trusting the trend. Don't always try to catch the exact bottom—that's all hindsight wisdom.

Just waiting for the retracement, the people who are waiting for that must be regretting it now. FOMO is really intense. --- Well said, waiting for a dip doesn't bring low prices, only losses. --- Those who got in early are making a killing, while latecomers are still hesitating about whether to buy or not. --- This wave of market movement isn't about technical analysis at all, it's just a psychological battle. --- Missing out is more painful than losing money, I believe that. --- Instead of waiting for a dip, it's better to follow the trend. Anyway, those who buy at high levels are all hesitant. --- Ah, I wish I hadn't waited for that possibly nonexistent entry point. --- In bull market psychology, one sentence: don't overthink, just get in quickly. --- Watching the price rise from 500 to 5000, and I'm still waiting for a retracement...

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have waited for that broken correction. Now I can only buy at high prices and accept the loss.

Wow, really, waiting for the补缺 (replacement/patch) until the end of time, and when I look back, I've already been left behind.
