If you are still lacking the knowledge of trading, it will be difficult for you to understand people in the market because it is the knowledge that will make you to buy coins in the bear run and hodl for the bear run to come before you can trade to earn profits.
If you want $100k to be your target in the nex bear run, don't trade your BTC until the price of your choice come to the market before you can trade, which is what you are seeing professional traders doing in the market when the price is high.
some people are very easily swayed when the market moves very fast. but some people have strong principles to stick to their investment plans.
Experienced investors have their targets. and they know when to sell or hold the Bitcoin they own.
Those who trade, can indeed benefit from market situations that move quite quickly. but in situations like that traders also have to have good calculations.
Op may be happier with short profits even if they are small. it wouldn't be a problem when he would later know which actually brought greater profits.
then you would really be freaking out with those small movements. You would really be making out those kind of questions into your mind on how the heck the price movement is too fast.?
On the time that you do able to get that sufficient experience on how this market works then you wont really be that impulsive and reactive on the movement that it would be having.
The profit making and decisions would be just that depending on you because there are people who do make out some short trades and there are ones who do tend to hold for long.
Risk management would really be that different to each other and outcomes and results will really vary.
