#strategybtcpurchase Planning vs Guessing — they look similar until money is involved.
Most losses don’t come from a bad market. They come from acting before a reason is fully formed.
When price moves fast, guessing feels productive. Planning feels slow. But planning is usually quiet: waiting for levels, watching volume, noticing how reactions change. Guessing is loud: entering because the price “looks ready” or because others already moved. Even with something as liquid as $BTC , the difference shows up near key areas — one trader waits for confirmation, the other hopes momentum continues.
A simple habit that helps: before entering, write one reason you would not take the trade. If you can’t find one, you’re probably guessing. If you can, you’re planning.
How do you personally tell the difference between a planned trade and a rushed one?
