Why fear appears right before the move

Fear rarely shows up at the top. It appears near the bottom, when uncertainty is high and confidence is low. This is not accidental. Markets are designed to transfer money from the impatient to the disciplined.

When price moves against the majority, emotions take control. Fear convinces traders to exit positions early, reduce size, or avoid good entries altogether. Meanwhile, experienced participants understand that maximum fear often appears near areas of opportunity.

This doesn’t mean every drop is a buy. It means fear should be observed, not obeyed. Professionals separate emotion from execution. They rely on predefined levels, risk management, and probability, not feelings
