Throw away your 2021 textbook. The market has changed. đâĄïžđ
I keep seeing charts from 2021 overlaid on todayâs price.
âWe are here,â they say.
We arenât.
Look at the volume profile. In 2021, most of the activity was driven by retail hype. Fast money. Emotion. FOMO. Thatâs what created those vertical moves.
Todayâs market looks different. Participation has shifted. Larger players move slower, build positions over time, and care more about risk than excitement.
They donât chase green candles. They accumulate patiently.
That changes behavior.
The explosive pumps from 2021 may be less common. But the sudden, emotional crashes may be less common too. Price action becomes slower, heavier, and more controlled.
This is where many traders get stuck. They keep using strategies built for a retail-driven cycle in a market that now behaves structurally differently.
If youâre still trading like itâs 2021, the market will teach you the hard way.
Are you trading for a one-time moonshot, or for steady participation in a changing system? Let me know in the comment's.
