when the market gets boring, CEXs, MMs, or projects start randomly pumping tokens to create FOMO. RAVE, BIO, ORDI, SIREN, MOVR,... you look at it and think altcoin season is coming back? not really. you assume these are just short-term pumps that will soon correct. you decide to short, believing you're ahead of the crowd. but then price keeps getting pushed higher and you get liquidated. then they pump and dump quickly to wipe out both longs and shorts. it will dump, but we don’t know when, and by then you might not even dare to enter a trade. MMs understand trader psychology and they use it. they hold large amounts of tokens, they can pump or dump whenever they want, and it’s designed to make 96.96% of traders lose. stay away from leverage and protect your capital. sometimes winning means doing nothing.
