Trading in 2026

[jcojci]

That mindset will coming when the bull run almost happens. At least, when the price starts rising and many coins increasing faster, that will shows at social medias. People should learn this and not triggers to just buy without research because that can makes a wrong decision.

In the bear market, people leaves and not comes especially those who profits big. They will comes when the halving almost coming and prepare their funds to buy the coin.

If people can learn about trading, they can manage the risk and ready for that. They know the risk but they can handle that without a problem.

There are still people that are delusional but In my opinion I think it has a lot to do with experience, most people that step into the market with the thought of getting rich overnight don't really understand what trading is all about. People who become more aware of the fact that trading isn't a get rich quick scheme are the ones has been able to gain more experience. Trading in 2026 has become more realistic and a lot of people are now being careful about how they go about their trading activities to avoid running into huge losses in the long run.

If people did not have the ambition and mindset to get rich quickly, they would never turn to trading. If  trade does not offer the opportunity to make a large profit in a short period of time, nobody will care about it.

Trading is nothing new. It existed before the cryptocurrency industry emerged. To this day, its fundamental nature has not changed, and the vast majority of traders still lose money. There has never been a time when the majority of traders consistently made profit.

[Sanitough]

Not really. But I do believe that the modern traders are more open about trading, more strict about risk management and more mindful and claim that they focus more on the trading process over profits.

However, with the increasing number of traders losing in the market, I don't think the idea of getting-rich-quick with trading has died rapidly, its even more evident these days due to the fact that almost all of the population have now turned into social media influencers, and a huge number have focused on trading and continue to attract the audience on what crypto trading can do to their lives and make big difference.

I definitely have to agree with you, the narrative around trading most especially traders that those coming into crypto trading are coming to actually make quick money is misleading because this is not about crypto trading and anything like that, trading has long been in existence before the coming of cryptocurrency and its crypto trading and sincerely has the notion or belief about making quick and large profits off trading not started since then?

Majority of traders even before crypto trading were actually already looking at making quick and large money off trading and that was the reason for leverage trading right from start or was it crypto that brought about leverages in trading? It’s not. So right from the non crypto trading days they were people already looking into trading to make quick money and their reason to go for leverage. This desire has not changed yet or looks like it will at the moment and that’s the reason why traders majority of this traders are losers.

The idea of getting rich quick is always here in trading and a lot of new traders keeps bringing that mindset to trading and which is why on the long run many just leave trading and assume they can’t make it out successfully and that totally wrong. The success rely on the trader and the traders mindset not the fast money mindset we bring along, and I don’t even think this mindset is something that can be put to stop.

A lot of people has shifts towards trading for the sake of influencers results and success but they are not ready to understand how the journey works and easily they get stuck by losses and end up leaving. 

[SamReomo]

In this era of trading, I think the trading world is accommodating genuine traders who understand the concept of trading and those who are ready to take their time to gain knowledge from it.

No, I don't agree with you, even in this time there are so many traders who only lose money in trading, they can't control their emotions and that's why they end up losing money in trading.

I read stories of many traders who've lost $10k $100k, or even more in a single night, those were actually profitable traders but some mistakes and revenge trading was the reason why they lost money in trading.

Even, in this time many traders lose money and they'll keep losing money in trading no matter if knowledge about trading is everywhere, but still those people will always keep losing money in trading.

I think in the past when cryptocurrency was still growing, trading cryptocurrency was still strange. So in my view, more people felt they could be rich by investing in altcoins and it was a disappointment because many were scam and exit projects. Losing money then was more on shitcoin investment and not trading. Trading cryptocurrency is not as old as hodling shit coins. Then, mere calculating of the cheap zeros and the imagination of overnight price movement made you feel something like adrenaline rush. I could still hear the vibes of lambo (meaning Lamborghini) in different telegram groups on shit projects because they feel the next move on the shit coins they invested on would be the next big thing but it hardly happened  

Some people were lucky, but there truly came a time that 70% of the ICOs were scam. ICO was what that were trending at the time, that is the kind of things that scammers will go into to scam people and many people were scammed. Trading has also started at the time but there was no derivatives in crypto until 2020. Some people make use of the spot market to trade.

Those who were lucky enough to invest in ICOs were mostly scams. Most of the people who traded in ICOs lost their money, although a few projects made some people profit, but most of them were scams. Before 2020, most people used to trade spot and there were many who used to trade futures. However, I think that this type of trading is often a scam, but if you can trade in good coins, there is hope. However, the spot market is not very risky for trading, that's why people use it more.

They can become rich in trading in a short term if they really understand the market and he favours them, but trading is not something that is easy to predict but you can always succeed when you’re into trading for long term and knows what you’re actual doing.

You’re right if you put your mind that you’re going to get huge profits by just starting trading, that will be very difficult to happen because you need to have some experience about it first before you can get how to predict in your on way and probably achieve profits. If you see trading is not going well the way you think of it is better you should hold for some time and continue learning about how you can understand why you failed always.

[Ziskinberg]

People get only more educated about trading but they are still trading trying to get rich quick with instant profits. I guess this kind of mindset will not die forever, people will always trade for profits no matter how they claim they are now trading wiser than before. Especially with the unstoppable social media, instead of traders creating their own market analysis and develop their own trading potentials, they come to rely their success with those self-acclaimed successful traders.

This is a very wrong move. Traders should not expect too much from social media traders, they are only flexing their wins and profits, but they are never transparent how much they have lost already before they come to reap their profits, not even sure if they really are since everything in social media can be fake.

People still believe that there is hope for them when it comes to trading and there is no way that you won't enjoy trading when you understand it and is not that you will make constant profit from it but the more you trade the more experience you get so there is a very high chances of doing better than what you have been doing before and there is no way that getting rich quick will help anyone when it comes to trading it's a game of patience and endurance not just making drastic decisions but it is very important for us to understand that there is no way that money will fall from the skies if not worked for and that is why you must take your time to learn trading and the. Do things gradually.

I think the mindset of becoming rich in crypto trading is dying rapidly.

Getting rich quick is mindset that needs to be eliminated for our own good. Getting rich slowly is a norm and should be followed. The second one is quite very much present in crypto and in fiat.

Looking back some time ago, so many people rushed into trading because they thought crypto was a way to make money quickly, and they never considered how difficult crypto can be, especially when you don't have an understanding of crypto trading.

I dont think this is due to crypto trading but trading in general on any speculative asset is difficult to be profitable in the long term. Similar thing we have seen in stocks and share markets, commodities market etc.

In this era of trading, I think the trading world is accommodating genuine traders who understand the concept of trading and those who are ready to take their time to gain knowledge from it. People understand trading more, and those who are interested in trading are ready to go through the process.

Truly there is no concept behind trading, you need to follow the numbers and time your traders for a long term profit. This is obviously speaking in the context of spot trading. For all non-spot trading methods, I cant say anything because those are not trading but gambling.

Sometimes people can give chances of getting rich quickly but such opportunities are like once in a lifetime and even don't come with some people. Even with lucky people, they must know that such opportunities will almost not come with them again, so they must protect their money from life-changing opportunities as safest as possible. Chasing get rich quick opportunities is unrealistic and it's mostly start of some nightmare with severe loss and bankruptcy.

Truly there is no concept behind trading, you need to follow the numbers and time your traders for a long term profit. This is obviously speaking in the context of spot trading. For all non-spot trading methods, I cant say anything because those are not trading but gambling.

Before people have participated in this volatile market a long time (means at least one market cycle but should be two or three cycles too), and gained enough experienced with profit, loss mixed together, and felt like they already understanding the market cycles from price to psychology, they can consider doing trading. Otherwise, trading is very risky for all people who have yet experienced in this market enough to know about risk, leverages, liquidations for traders.

Knowledge and experience only improve your odds of winning, they do not guarantee anything. Meanwhile, the market is becoming increasingly unpredictable due to the constant influence of macroeconomic factor and unexpected event.
Therefore, it is wrong to assume that trading will become easier in 2026 or trader will earn greater profit.

You're right, people will continue to lose money, and that will never change. As long as they continue trading, they will continue to lose money. Because trading was never designed to help most make money, but rather the majority end up losing money instead.

Trading has been going on for many thousands of years but these days since we're in digital world things are much easier but at the same time complicated for majority. The ones who lose money in trading are not good at controlling their emotions, and that's the main reason why they lose money in trading.

They buy an asset when it's moving upward and sell when it dumps, that's their biggest mistake, instead of selling at low and buying at high, they should focus on buying the asset at low and selling it at high. With that approach they'll not lose even a single dollar but overtime end up making good profit in trading.

The opinion you have given in the last paragraph of your writing is correct. In modern times, traders are becoming aware because they are analyzing the market and correcting themselves by looking at the examples of traders who have lost in the past.

Crypto trading has risks but also the potential for high profits. There is a fair chance for the patient trader. You have to give up the tendency to get rich in the short term only then you can succeed in trading. In some cases you also have to focus on long term investments.

Considering the fact that there is risk in trading, adopt a risk tolerant strategy and allocate an amount of funds to trading that you can afford to lose.

[Inwestour]

I think this mostly applies to investors, who leave the crypto market during a bear market, while traders stay and continue trading. Not all of them, but many do. And those who manage to buy during the bear market are the ones who make profits during the bull market. However, there are not many such people, which is why, in the end, only a small percentage of all investors and traders are able to make a profit.

This is because they have experienced losses before so when they try again they will certainly understand better how to act to avoid losses again. One of the things they must do is analyze market movements and how they occur each time. They simply want to avoid repeating the same thing so they correct themselves regarding what caused them to do in the past.

There are certain benchmarks in doing something like crypto trading so those who do it definitely understand what happens in doing it especially regarding the risks of loss or profit that they will have. Therefore this trading must be very careful to avoid anything that risks loss because every trade is definitely the goal of all parties only for profit so the main thing when wanting to do it is consistency and focus when you want to do it.

Yes you are correct, knowledge and experience those not actually make you gain profit in trading but it surely increases your chances of gaining profit in trading, someone who has trading knowledge and experience will always gain more profit than someone with zero knowledge and experience.
I also think it’s wrong to assume that trading will become easier in 2026 or trader will earn greater profit, trading is risk and it will continue to be risky especially if you are trading aIt coins.

Some of the people who had the mindset of getting rich in crypto trading no longer believe in trading; the perception about trading has changed. Today, many see crypto trading as very risky, which they never thought would lead to making money.

In this era of trading, I think the trading world is accommodating genuine traders who understand the concept of trading and those who are ready to take their time to gain knowledge from it. People understand trading more, and those who are interested in trading are ready to go through the process.

Essentially, people are now becoming educated earlier, and some are learning from firsthand experience. As a result, even newcomers no longer view trading as an easy endeavor. This is a positive development, but it still doesn’t reduce the number of traders who ultimately give up and leave the field. The mindset of getting rich quickly through trading may indeed be fading. However, the number of people suffering losses in trading is actually on the rise. This is because more beginners are now trading in the futures market rather than the spot market. Given the high risks they face, it’s no surprise that many get liquidated and even lose their entire capital. some give up, but others re-evaluate their approach and try again, applying the lessons they’ve learned.

Becoming a trader requires dedication. It’s just like any real world business, it demands dedication. Without genuine dedication, a person won’t succeed in any field, especially in crypto trading, which requires a high level of discipline.

Many of us are new to the crypto platform, looking at the past history, it is known that in the past, many people have become owners of millions of dollars from crypto in a very short time. The developers of new projects used to lure investors with promotions, those who were lucky could make a profit but most traders sold at a loss for fear of losing their entire capital. It's the one of the reasons for losses in trading.

The reason why crypto trading is considered risky is the price volatility, but those who can keep buying in line with this volatile price nature can be successful. To learn trading experience, you must be a long term investor in the past because without long term market analysis, you cannot be successful in trading
