The One Candle That Changes Everything
Every cycle, it happens again and again.
The market dumps.
People panic.
They swear the bull run is over.
Then—out of nowhere—one green candle rips through the chart.
🔥 One pump.
🔥 One breakout.
🔥 One shift in sentiment.
And suddenly… the same people who were crying yesterday are FOMOing back in.
Let’s break it down.
The Dump: Where Fear Takes Over
Before that one green candle, the market looks dead.
😨 Twitter is full of doom posts.
😨 YouTubers scream “BEAR MARKET CONFIRMED.”
😨 Traders panic-sell at the bottom.
Example: Bitcoin 2020 COVID Crash
BTC nuked from $9,000 to $3,800 in days.
People swore crypto was finished.
Big accounts laughed at anyone still holding.
Even the most bullish traders gave up.
Then, April 2020.
BTC printed one strong green weekly candle.
That one candle:
✅ Pushed BTC back over $6k.
✅ Started the reversal.
✅ Made bears scramble to buy back higher.
A year later?
Bitcoin was $69,000.
The ones who sold at max fear? Wrecked.
The ones who accumulated quietly? Millionaires.
The One Green Candle: FOMO Returns
When that one candle finally comes, the switch flips instantly.
🚀 Suddenly, the bears are quiet.
🚀 Suddenly, people are bullish again.
🚀 Suddenly, everyone wants back in.
Example: Ethereum in 2023
ETH was stuck at $1,200 for months.
Nobody cared. Volume was dead.
Then, one strong breakout.
In weeks, ETH ran to $2,000+.
What happened?
📌 Bears who shorted too late got liquidated.
📌 Retail FOMOed in thinking it was “safe” now.
📌 The market moved before the crowd noticed.
And guess who sold them the top?
The ones who bought during max fear.
Cycles Change, But Human Nature Doesn’t
Markets move in predictable patterns.
But human emotions? Always the same.
❌ Fear at the bottom.
❌ Greed at the top.
❌ Regret in between.
If you wait until everyone agrees it’s bullish, you’re already too late.
Smart money buys when nobody wants to.
Retail buys when it feels “safe” again.
By then? The real move is already over.
How to Play This Right
Most people will miss the bottom and FOMO the top.
But not you.
Here’s how you flip the game:
🔹 Ignore the noise. When people scream “bear market,” look at the charts.
🔹 Watch for early strength. One green candle doesn’t mean instant reversal, but it’s a signal.
🔹 Position before the hype. The best plays run before retail notices.
🔹 Take profits when greed takes over. Don’t be the one buying back higher.
