The Fear &amp; Greed Index has been swinging between extremes like a caffeinated metronome, with greed spiking during short-lived rallies and fear surging just as dramatically during pullbacks.<\/p>\n<p>Some traders agreed with CZ, framing his advice as a reminder to keep feelings out of the equation\u2014an aspirational stance in a market where emotions often run the show. But others were quick to point out that the trading doctrine doesn\u2019t match his usual public messaging.<\/p>\n<p>One user clapped back:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cBut why do you keep urging me to buy, and never remind me to sell when the market is buzzing with excitement?

And while CZ\u2019s timing-the-cycle advice may be sound in theory, getting the masses to buy fear and sell greed is easier said than done\u2014especially when most of Crypto Twitter seems happiest doing the exact opposite.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Binance founder Changpeng Zhao has once again waded into crypto philosophy hour, this time offering his own spin on the age-old trader\u2019s mantra: buy low, sell high.
