bear markets play tricks on your mind.
early on, every bounce feels like the bottom.
you start convincing yourself, “this is it… we’re back.”
and then it rolls over again.
after a few of those, something changes.
you stop trusting green candles.
you start fading every bounce.
protecting yourself from getting fooled again.
it feels smart.
it feels disciplined.
but that’s usually when the real bottom forms.
quietly.
unexpectedly.
right when everyone is conditioned to doubt upside.
no excitement.
no confirmation.
just a shift most people don’t believe in until it’s already gone.
bear markets don’t just test your capital.
they train your psychology
right before they flip on you.
