Why Knowing Price Moves Is Useless Without Action

The Common Habit

Knowledge vs Results

[{"selector":"#anim-a7a03bd5-1432-47d8-8537-e953ba02b91e","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-dc3e3d91-395a-4f2a-b070-2159f7b6c66a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-253.33342%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-767de08f-2fd7-41e2-b326-edd4381962cd","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":50,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ecbfe697-9262-4c11-94e0-6681b64f5b37","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(1921.05277%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":50,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] 2 Understanding the reason doesn’t make money. Decisions do.

Action ≠ Buy Immediately

[{"selector":"#anim-fa77a18b-acc3-491b-a90b-a8371f62fe90","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d8d30a55-84ad-4a6d-86a2-ea44af940f88","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-280.00014%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] 3 Action can mean: • Waiting • Reducing risk • Avoiding a late entry • Planning the next move Doing nothing by choice is also action.

Why ‘Why’ Still Matters

[{"selector":"#anim-d0a7ad28-fe62-4bd3-936c-29bd762f27cb","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-11c362d3-8f5f-4143-8caf-cc2cd97a6be3","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-253.33342%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-fddb676d-bf8f-4590-8002-fea9b6c4c4cd","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":50,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-953a54fc-3271-4761-8d97-a6041b76e2ee","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(1921.05277%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":50,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] 4 Knowing why helps you judge: • Early vs late move • Strong trend vs emotional rally • Risk vs reward

The Real Problem

Late understanding → late action → high risk.

The Smarter Question

But: Is this worth acting on now?
