Real talk—how many of you actually stick to those trading resolutions? Week one: "I'm disciplined, only taking quality setups." Week two: "Just one small FOMO trade won't hurt." Week three: You're back to your old habits, chasing every pump and dump. We've all been there. The gap between what we plan and what we actually do in the market is no joke. So yeah, how long do yours typically last?

Haha, I'm laughing to death. I can't even stick to it for a week, what am I pretending to be a trader for?

Oh no, you hit the nail on the head. I usually hold on until the fourth day.

Haha, you got me. Mine usually breaks in week 1.5, to be honest.

Haha, I'm the one who breaks the rules in the second week. I promised to only follow high-quality signals, but as soon as I see small coins skyrocketing, I rush in.

Ironically, data shows that 90% of traders don't last more than a month, and we're all repeating the same tragedy.

Haha, don't say it, it's true that I broke my streak in the second week. --- Plans can't keep up with changes, one FOMO and it's all over. --- Honestly admit it, I gave up after three days. --- Why does it feel like this every time? Is discipline really that hard? --- Making a plan on Monday and cheating on Tuesday, this cycle just won't stop. --- To be honest, when a good market comes, all plans are useless. --- My record is sticking to it for five days, I'm quite proud of that. --- Self-discipline in the crypto world is just a decoration; no one can really do it. --- The key is that in the first two weeks, I could still fool myself, but by the third week, I completely gave up. --- Dreaming about that missed pump, how can I stay calm?

Haha, really. Confident in the first week, and by the third week, I became a rookie.
