I recently heard a phrase that gave me a new insight—trading is like answering multiple-choice questions. Some keep asking, "Why didn't I buy before?" while others are stuck on "Why didn't I cut losses earlier?" But true winners understand one thing: **Quickly letting go of losing trades allows you to calmly迎接 the next opportunity**.



Take $POL as an example. It's indeed hot right now. But from a technical perspective, this hype hides risks. On the 4-hour chart, the RSI has already broken through 80, a clear sign of extreme overbought conditions. Even more concerning is the shrinking volume—indicating the buying momentum is weakening and a reversal could happen at any time. Blindly chasing the rally at this point is like "taking the knife."

My straightforward view is: **The smartest move right now is to stay on the sidelines**. Instead of guessing the top, wait for clear signals. Pay attention to two key levels: first, whether there are signs of stabilization around 0.165 USDT; second, whether the support at 0.155 USDT has been broken. Only when one of these signals is confirmed should you consider establishing a new position.

Stop-loss is not a failure; it's an active step to clear out positions that shouldn't be held. Always leave mental space for the next opportunity—that's much better than holding onto a hot potato that could burn you.

I've seen too many cases of getting cut, haha --- Still chasing after RSI breaks 80? Bro, you're trying to lose money. --- Waiting and watching is the best strategy; I agree with this statement. --- POL's recent hype was indeed false fire; once trading volume shrinks, you know it's the end. --- Letting go of failed trades is really a mental discipline; it's easier to say than to do. --- The levels at 0.165 and 0.155 must hold, or else you'll suffer heavy losses. --- Getting cut so much that your hand goes numb; now, anyone who chases is a fool.

Not taking the knife is absolutely right. POL is indeed tempting this time, but with RSI overbought, you really need to be cautious.

POL's current hype seems quite uncertain to me. The RSI is already at 80, and you're still chasing? Enjoy the thrill of catching the knife yourselves.

That's right, POL is indeed easy to get caught off guard this time. Let's wait for the signal; there's no rush anyway. Clinging to a hot potato is the real foolishness. 0.165 really can't be broken; it's not too late to enter the market later. A good mindset is the biggest trading system.

Hey, I've seen situations where RSI breaks 80 many times, it's just a trap for the bagholders to get slaughtered.

It's indeed rational to be cautious, but I still couldn't resist and bought a little. Now I'm feeling mentally exhausted.
