Fomo

😨 FOMO Today.... or POMO Next week?😱 The fear of missing out The fear of missing out (FOMO) is an emotional response to the belief that other people are living better, more satisfying lives or that important opportunities are being missed. FOMO often leads to feelings of unease, dissatisfaction, depression and stress. Well i guess we need to create a new word, so i called it POMO (Panic Of Missing Out). I hope I am right and i am not always but market looks Bullish to me and given that: -Feds almost done with hikes -Canadians didn't hike yesterday - Most importantly my charts show we might SERIOUSLY Pump next: Hope i'm right...

If you want to BUY Bitcoin NOW, PLZ DON'T!Current trend and market structure: first time a 4H candle CLOSE above the local resistance higher lows consistently during past three weeks less correction with each resistance touch but the slope of higher highs is lowering meaning it is taking longer to go less high. It WAS more bullish till now BUT ... Current orderbook Situation: we are near a new higher high resistance, so it is expected to have more sell taker orders than buy taker orders since we are in a new uncertain environment, we have almost no major maker orders on the orderbook above or below to prevent the price from going higher (or lower). If you haven't bought bitcoin before, please don't do it just now! Wait a bit and consider these two long term things: 1- DXY is probably having a double bottom 2- BTC is near a very important resistance on weekly timeframe: On the other hand, since everyone is expecting 25K, it is a bit scary to follow all! The only problem I have with going higher from here is the volume divergence. As the price is going higher, we are having less and less volume which means less buyers... About volume: Although there are a lot of things going on here about the volume since Binance zero trading fee on BTCUSDT ended (volume dropped exactly after that!) and now BTCTUSD has zero trading fee, and a part of the volume from USDT is moved to TUSD pair in Binance (A simple script can aggregate the volume of them to analyze volume better). But even despite that, the counter argument against volume divergence is the passed time in this area. Usually, we only see big volume on every candle and don't consider the aggregated volume over the passing time. I don't consider myself eligible enough to post any setup here, just trying to share my perspective in an uncertain environment. And one more thing, there can be a high possible dump if ever price crosses under the orange bullish trend line...

❗️PLAN VS FOMO EFFECT❗️ ☑️A trader with a plan is someone who has a well-defined trading strategy that outlines their entry and exit points, risk management approach, and overall trading philosophy. ☑️They have a clear understanding of the markets they are trading and make decisions based on objective analysis and research. They are disciplined and stick to their trading plan, even in the face of losses or market volatility. They avoid impulsive decisions and emotions like fear of missing out (FOMO) that can lead to bad trades. ☑️On the other hand, a trader with FOMO is someone who makes impulsive decisions based on fear of missing out on potential profits. ☑️They may jump into trades without fully understanding the market conditions or conducting proper research. They may also ignore their risk management strategy, in an effort to make quick profits. They often enter trades based on rumors or tips from others, rather than their own analysis. This type of trader is more likely to make poor trades and suffer significant losses. ☑️In summary, a trader with a plan is someone who is disciplined, objective, and systematic in their approach to trading, while a trader with FOMO is impulsive, emotional, and reactive in their approach. I Hope you guys learned something new today✅ Wish you all Best Of Luck👍 😇And may the odds be always in your favor😇 Do you like this post? Do you want more articles like that?

😱 Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO)📉Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO) / SHORT scenario. Fear of missing out, or FOMO, is the feeling of anxiety or regret that can occur when someone believes that they have missed an opportunity to invest in a stock or crypto currency that is increasing or decreasing in value. This feeling can be triggered by seeing others making money from a particular investment, or by observing the stock or crypto's value increasing or decreasing over time and thinking that one should have invested earlier. FOMO can be dangerous to investors because it can lead to impulsive buying or selling decisions that are not based on sound investment strategies. In the above scenario we can see the effect of FOMO in play. The price action breakdown of the trendline, indicating weak support and a flip of the trend. This psychological effect can be observed without the use of indicators and by just looking at the price action. A deeper look into order flow and Open Interest could further explain the trader's behavior on this particular effect that occurs. 🔴 ENTRY is based on the first major red candle after the breakdown, trying to knife-catch the price, based on no strategy and purely emotion of missing out a potential short position with a stop loss nowhere close to a potential supply zone where the price action could re-visit for confirmation of a downtrend. 🟢 ENTRY is based AFTER the retest of the trendline, on a potential supply zone where the price action is looking for a retest at this level before confirmation of further decline of price action. Stop loss is given above the last high, above the trendline. 👤 @AlgoBuddy 📅 Daily Ideas about market update, psychology & indicators ❤️ If you appreciate our work , Please like, comment and follow ❤️

What is FOMO and how to avoid it? What is FOMO? FOMO - Fear of missing out or Lost Profit Syndrome - an obsessive fear of missing out on an investment opportunity. This syndrome can overtake in any everyday situation and make you remember missed chances to get rich all day: ignore the growing popularity of cryptocurrencies, not invest in bitcoin and many other short-sighted actions. To determine the presence of the syndrome of lost profits can be on several grounds: frequent check of the exchange rate of the asset in the portfolio; obsessive fear of missing some important event or news; dependence on a smartphone, discomfort in the absence of a gadget; resentment if someone is luckier or more successful. In trading and investing, the FOMO phenomenon is especially noticeable. Many investors under the influence of the syndrome make spontaneous purchases, make many mistakes and subsequently lose faith in the prospects of the market. But the good news is that even this obsessive-compulsive disorder can be cured with a few tricks ✅ Forget about the past. What once happened in the market is absolutely irrelevant. No successful investor looks at quotes in the past. He only thinks about the future. Chances never end, they always reappear. ✅ Increase your competence. Master new skills, study the experience of professionals, All this will give not only the necessary knowledge, but also confidence in the correctness of your actions. ✅ Set clear goals. You should always keep your strategy in mind and set target values when buying an asset. If the quotes reach your target, you should sell. ✅ If there are no ideas for investing - wait. If there are no assets that fit into your strategy, then the most correct decision would be to save, increasing the cash position. And wait for the right moment. It will definitely come, and you will know about it when the crowd will scream about the next funeral of the stock market. ✅ Your strategy is everything. Develop your own strategy and stick to it, improving on the way!

Trading Psychology – FOMO #2JS-Masterclass: FOMO-Trading #2 In the first FOMO tutorial, I have summarized the characteristics of a FOMO trader and explained contributing factors which encourage FOMO-trading. In this tutorial, I will compare the typical behaviors of FOMO traders versus disciplined traders and give tips to overcome FOMO-trading. FOMO TRADERS VS DISCIPLINED TRADERS The process of placing a trade can be very different depending on the situation in hand and the factors that are driving a trader’s decisions. Here is the trading cycle of a FOMO trader vs a disciplined trader – as you will see, there are some fundamental differences that can lead to very different outcomes. TIPS TO OVERCOME FOMO Overcoming FOMO begins with greater self-awareness, and understanding the importance of discipline and risk management in trading. While there is no simple solution to preventing emotions from impacting trades and stopping FOMO in its tracks, there are various techniques that can help traders make informed decisions and trade more effectively. Here are some tips and reminders to help manage the fear factor: • Be aware that there will always be another trade. Trading opportunities are like buses – another one will always come along. This might not be immediate, but the right opportunities are worth the wait. • Everyone is in the same position. Recognising this is a breakthrough moment for many traders, making the FOMO less intense. Join a social trading platform or a trading service to get in contact and share experiences with other traders – this can be a useful first step in understanding and improving trading psychology. • Have a trading plan and stick to that. Every trader should know their strategy, create a trading plan, then ALWAYS stick to it. This is the way to achieve long-term success • Taking the emotion out of trading is key. Learn to put emotions aside – a trading plan will help with this, improving trading confidence. • Traders should only ever use capital they can afford to lose. Always define your stop-loss levels before you enter a trade and always stick to that. This helps to minimize losses if the market moves unexpectedly. • Knowing the markets is essential. Traders should conduct their own analysis and use this to inform trades, taking all information on board to be aware of every possible outcome. • FOMO isn’t easily forgotten, but it can be controlled. The right strategies and approaches ensure traders can rise above FOMO. • Keeping a trading journal helps with planning. It’s no coincidence that the most successful traders use a journal, drawing on personal experience to help them plan. Overcoming FOMO doesn’t happen overnight, it’s an ongoing process. This article has provided a good starting point, highlighting the importance of trading psychology and managing emotions to prevent FOMO from affecting decisions when placing a trade.

Trading Psychology – FOMOJS-Masterclass – FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) Definition FOMO – Fear of Missing Out - is a relatively recent addition to the English language, but one that is intrinsic to our day-to-day lives. A true phenomenon that affects many traders and can be a major hurdle to become a successful trader. For instance, the feeling of missing out could lead to the entering of trades without enough thought, or to closing trades at inopportune moments because it’s what others seem to be doing. It can even cause traders to risk too much capital due to a lack of research, or the need to follow the herd. For some, the sense of FOMO created by seeing others succeed is only heightened by fast-paced markets and volatility; it feels like there is a lot to miss out on. To help traders better understand the concept of FOMO in trading and why it happens, this tutorial will identify potential triggers and how they can affect a day trader’s success WHAT IS FOMO IN TRADING? FOMO in trading is the Fear of Missing Out on a big opportunity in the markets and is a common issue many traders will experience during their careers. FOMO can affect everyone, from new traders with retail accounts through to professional and institutional traders. In the modern age of social media, which gives us unprecedented access to the lives of others, FOMO is a common phenomenon. It stems from the feeling that other traders are more successful, and it can cause overly high expectations, a lack of long-term perspective, overconfidence/too little confidence and an unwillingness to wait. Emotions are often a key driving force behind FOMO which can lead traders to neglect trading plans and disrespect their trading strategy. Common emotions in trading that can feed into FOMO include Greed, Fear, Excitement, Jealousy, Impatience and Anxiety CHARACTERISTICS OF A FOMO TRADER Traders who act on FOMO will likely share similar traits and be driven by a particular set of assumptions. Below is a list of the top things that guide a FOMO traders’ behavior: 1. Listen too much to the news. ‘They are all doing it so it must be a good idea’. 2. Be too much focused on potential profits versus thinking risk first. 3. Not sure but just let’s give it a go. 4. Getting frustrated in hindsight: ‘OMG, I should have seen this coming’. 5. This will be a great opportunity and if I do too much analysis, I will miss this great opportunity. What factors contribute to FOMO trading? FOMO is an internal feeling, but one that can be caused by a range of situations. Some of the external factors that could lead to a trader experiencing FOMO are: • Volatile markets. FOMO isn’t limited to bullish markets where people want to hop on a trend – it can creep into our psyche when there is market movement in any direction. No trader wants to miss out on a good opportunity • Big winning streaks. Buoyed up by recent wins, it is easy to spot new opportunities and get caught up in them. And it’s fine, because everyone else is doing it, right? Unfortunately, winning streaks don’t last forever • Repetitive losses. Traders can end up in a vicious cycle: entering a position, getting scared, closing out, then re-entering another trade as anxiety and disappointment arise about not holding out. This can eventually lead to bigger losses • News and rumours. Hearing a rumour circulating can heighten the feeling of being left out –traders might feel like they’re out of the loop • Social media. The mix of social media and trading can be toxic when it looks like everyone is winning trades. It’s important not to take social media content at face value, and to take the time to research influencers and evaluate posts.

What is FOMO and how we can minimise itI like to try keep explanations nice, simple and short.. everyone one should know the definition of FOMO is (fear of missing out) this is a simple and common emotion that affects us in all different areas of our life but when you bring it to the charts and your trading it can lead to a roller coaster of emotions and mistakes... I found a few things that help me when learning and still controlling it is... Been cautious with who you follow and monitor how your desertions are influenced from others, (hot tips, signals etc) you always want to have a clear view of how you yourself analyse the markets with a strict plan.. you may be a quick intra-day trader but someone you follow gives a signal that might be a trade to hold for weeks... a mix up in trading styles can cost you a loss even though the person you follow makes the right call. This kind of backs off the last suggestion I made but its simple Create a plan, Know which time frame your trading in (short term long term) and trade only if its right by YOUR trading plan. Overconfidence can lead to trying to stay to active on the charts, chasing every possible trade setup and can really mess with your head. Chasing a loss after losing money is another common mistake.. sometimes i take a day or 2 away from the market if I have had a nice winning trade as well as possibly taking a loss. Sometimes its best to take a breather access what you may have done right or wrong and come back with a clear head ready to make smart decisions One of my personal favourite strategy's to limit this situation is, If you want to enter the market but price may not be at the area you think it may support or resist from, take 50% of the usual amount you risk for example you usually risk 1% which may be $100 make it 0.5% which is $50 and then if price goes the way you expect your still entered in a position but then if price goes the opposite way and hits the level you expect then you can enter the other 0.5% of risk to get into another trade a maybe a better entry point... DONT rush into trades on the Monday!! Remember there is a whole week for many opportunity's to arise and sometimes the best opportunity's don't come until the end of the week, I used to over trade on the Monday and end up trying to catch up the rest of the week... So I for a while didn't even look at the charts on the Monday to resist the temptation. Different strategy's will work for different people so find something that works for you and stick to it!! Let me know if you can share any ideas that helped you, it may be able to help someone else!!

MARKET THOUGHTS 10/14/22Grab a cup of coffee, wake up and read up lol ** (Not a Financial Advice, just sharing my own opinion and the process I do in the morning before I make a decision to trade.) ** As you guys are all aware the SPY went nuts yesterday, anything is possible in the market these days lol. Once the shorts got squeezed above 354 and FOMO kicked in it ran like it stole something :rofl: . Now as you get ready for todays play here are things you should consider based on the charts and technical analysis: - SPY, yesterday, just showed a possible sign of short term reversal from the divergence we've been talking about in the stream the whole week. - The bounce was larger than expected and larger than usual, when a move like this happens one direction, there's a possible consolidation day the next day or pullback, unless volume continues and breaks above key levels continuing to squeeze the shorts and FOMO continues as well. - If you are planning to go Gungho on going long, zoom out first and see the trendline on the daily and the pre-market action on SPY and where its at currently (See Chart Posted). - Break of that trendline upwards can mean retest of the next resistance and probably even retest the next trendline up, but SPY has done its weekly range as of yesterdays candle, so slight chance it will continue breaking to the upside and do another big run. If anything, possible pump then pullback. - The VIX on the weekly hit that trendline we talked about on the streams this week too causing the downward direction which usually does the opposite of the market, hence the run up yesterday. ** Scenario 1 ** VIX bounces above 9ema on the daily and stays above, market pullback. ** Scenario 2 ** VIX breaks below the 9ema on the daily, it will have about 1-2points max move today. Which can mean a pump in the market and will hit exhaustion, so pump and dump. (See VIX Chart Posted). SPY VIX

do NOT do this !a very obvious visual but necessary to share, I don't want any of you to fall into this madness of praying for a trade to work this is a reminder to not fall into FOMO trading to counter this, you need to remind yourself about the type of trades you are into, are you in an intraday swing, are you on a big swing that could take weeks or months to happen ? then, lower your expectations and place a partial TP at 50% of your expectations and then, move stop loss to stop gain This will make a big difference in your PNL, in your trading perfomance That's what proper trade management is
