The legendary investor Warren Buffett once shared a maxim that has endured for decades on Wall Street and now resonates strongly in the crypto markets: "Be fearful when others are greedy and be greedy when others are fearful." This contrarian principle defines the game of trading. While most chase highs driven by FOMO, those who master their emotions accumulate during dips. And when panic sells positions at a loss, those who stay calm capture the opportunities. It's not magic, it's market psychology. The volatility that scares some is exactly where others build fortunes.

That's true, but very few people can actually do it. Most are still being caught in wave after wave of FOMO.

Warren Buffett's way of speaking has become tiresome, but the key question is whether backtest data really supports it. I actually look at on-chain data, and over the past three months, this panic bottom-fishing pattern has only a 67% success rate, with a risk factor that is alarmingly high. But to be honest, I still took a shot at the bottom anyway, since the arbitrage opportunity is right there, and I just need to bet that I won't be the last bagholder.
