An increase on the price is often accompanied by more volume and volatility, and this often means more opportunities to make money for traders and speculators, in light of this I do not see anything wrong with traders becoming more active at the time.

But could this increase on the activity of a trader bring more losses if they are not careful? Yes, but that is what trading is about, and anyone that is not willing to take this risk should give up being a trader and become an investor instead.
