Today's upward movement is not about strength.
This is about the expectations of tomorrow's FOMC decision at 21:00 and the desire to be “in the market earlier than others.”
On such days, it seems that if you haven’t entered — you’ve missed something.
But the truth is that the market is not going anywhere. It operates every day.
🔹 The news buys expectations
Big players enter when it’s still calm.
And when the noise starts — they are already thinking about where to take profits.
🔹 After 21:00, the chart often stops being logical
The movements are sharp, chaotic, without structure.
This is the moment where they don’t kick out 'bad traders', but the impatient ones.
About FOMO, stops, and common sense
The market itself does not fuel FOMO.
It is fueled by the thought: 'now or never'.
If you got stopped out once —
this is already a signal to stop, not 'to enter again to recover'.
The best reaction is to step back and ask yourself:
👉 Why did I get stopped out?
👉 What was the logic of the entry?
👉 Was it the market, or my emotions?
Very often the right decision is to leave this for another day.
The market will go nowhere.
But the deposit can say 'goodbye' if you trade on nerves.
Simple risk management on FOMC days
smaller volume than usual
no 'one more entry' after a stop
If the picture is unclear — do nothing
💡 A professional is distinguished from a beginner not by entries,
and the skill of not trading at the wrong time.
👉 Do you usually take a break after hitting your stop?
or does it pull to 'get back what’s mine'?#ETH $ETH
