Oh my God, this is just best explanation for my current situation too. I was so confused until today that whether bitcoin is going to burst the next upward signal or not and made me think whether to sell and book the profits or wait for even more. Considering this is my greed it can end up pretty badly and I think it's really time I should be on the way to sell my coins.
Your expression of comedian with the trader is pretty similar and understandable to me. Makes my mind more clearer tbh. I think its better to understand the proper exit strategy in this market.
On top of this, one should always think of, how much applause we want? Or whether we are capable enough to face the criticism of down turn!
You are not alone, there are way too many people who are doing the same thing, literally exactly the same thing. It is clear to me that there is really nothing that people do right when it comes to using their emotions, and trading while everyone is hyped is something that not many people can stop, there are way too many people already, that is why it is called "hyped" and/or "ovation is the loudest", the default version of it already includes a lot of people to make it exist, without people then how could the ovation be loudest? So feel good about yourself, you are not alone and we are all there with you which is why making these kind of trades are very normal right now.
I personally believe that we are in a situation where everything will be alright in the long game, as long as you do not sell when the ovation is the most silent then you are going to be fine.
