| | | | Watch for a quick, aggressive run-up — that’s the start of the hype cycle. Everyone and their grandmother starts talking about it. It doesn’t matter if it’s a high-profile stock or something obscure that suddenly seems to be "the next big thing."
The excitement builds up, creating a euphoric top, and people buy in at what they think is just the beginning.
But let’s talk about reality...
That initial run-up is usually followed by consolidation — a stall where prices level out.
Then comes the scary part: the big drop. Some people panic and sell, while others convince themselves that they’re holding through a "small correction" before it goes even higher.
But what often follows is a full breakdown.
Look, Nvidia is a perfect example. Right now, it’s still riding the AI hype, pushing higher with every news cycle. But when that hype fades — and it will — we’ll likely see a pullback, maybe even a substantial one.
Tesla went through a similar cycle, with wild ups and downs that left people scrambling to catch up. This pattern isn’t unique to these stocks — it’s a common theme in market psychology.
But isn’t it possible they could keep going up?
Sure, it’s possible. But the safer bet is to expect a retrace, sometimes as much as 60% or 70%. Those zones aren’t magic, either — they’re just where the consolidation was. If you don’t understand these levels, it’s easy to get caught off guard.
For newer traders, the best advice is to watch and wait for that retrace. Don’t let FOMO — fear of missing out — get the better of you. If a stock is at an all-time high and the hype is through the roof, remember that what goes up can, and often does, come down.
Wait for the bubble pattern to play out… Patience will save you from paying too much.
When a stock’s chart starts looking like a bubble, resist the urge to jump in. Most of the time, you’re better off waiting for the pattern to come full circle. And if you’re already in, keep your exit plan ready.
Because when the hype dies down, and the real value kicks in, you’ll be glad you didn’t get swept away with everyone else.
