Recently, the CPO market has caused many investors to suffer significant losses. Not long ago, the market was highly enthusiastic, with all kinds of bullish voices flying around, but suddenly it turned downward. Consecutive declines have caused retail investors who chased the highs to be trapped. Many leading coins dropped from a high of 468 all the way down to 368, with a staggering decline. Meanwhile, the overall market continued to rise, making the divergence even more frustrating for those caught in the trap.

In fact, chasing hot topics and rising prices is not inherently problematic; the crypto space is full of opportunities. But the key is to have proper psychological preparation — market pullbacks and sharp adjustments are always coming. The issue is not chasing highs itself, but whether you can withstand the risks and volatility that come with it. The lesson from CPO this time is worth all retail investors reflecting on: there is no eternal upward trend, and risk management should always come first.

The drop from 468 to 368 is really intense. But then again, who asked you not to set stop-losses? Mental preparation is easy to talk about but hard to do. When you're caught in a position, who can think about risk management? It's always like this—when the bullish voices rise, it's easy to get carried away, only to be brutally hit by reality. The most frustrating thing is the divergence market—clearly the market is rising, but your position is falling. That feeling is truly unmatched. Chasing the rally isn't a problem; the issue is how to follow the trend no matter what. This CPO is a textbook-level weed harvesting machine. Remember next time, everyone, stop-losses are never redundant, never.

468 drops to 368, this move is really incredible. Watching others' markets rise while your coins fall, that feeling is truly uncomfortable.

Chasing high is just chasing high; the key still depends on your mindset. From 468 to 368? The people who cut their losses in this wave probably can't sleep well.

468 dropped to 368. As soon as this data came out, I checked the on-chain large holder addresses' flow. Guess what? The project team had already been dumping aggressively at high levels. While retail investors were still shouting buy buy buy, their suspicious addresses had already transferred to exchanges. This is what you call a pump-and-dump scheme.
