#Pippin Only trade the market you understand; everything else is off-limits!
In my years of trading, the biggest gain isn’t how skilled I am technically, but rather having the courage to eliminate the market conditions I don’t understand.
Trading isn’t about who can analyze more; it’s about who can stick to what they understand. I only trade three types of market conditions, and I avoid everything else.
First type: Confirmation of pullback after trend breakthrough
After a wave of price increase, if there’s a pullback that doesn’t break key support, with converging volume, I wait for confirmation before entering. If you chase without confirmation, you’re often the one being cut.
Second type: False drop at the lower edge of consolidation
A pullback with a false breakout, suddenly breaking support with increased volume; I only follow up after confirmation of the pullback. Missing out isn’t a problem, what’s scary is thinking it’s the bottom, and then getting cut directly.
Third type: Strong attack after a washout in the middle of a trend
After a price increase, it consolidates, luring in shorts multiple times; if key support holds, it accelerates again. I’ll increase my position when support stabilizes and short-term breakout occurs. If I’m wrong, I can still escape.
I don’t chase tops, don’t guess bottoms, and don’t follow flying prices. For market conditions outside of these three, I either stay in cash or walk away. Some say that many opportunities will be missed? It’s okay; what I want is to live long, earn steadily, not to be tossed around by the market every day.
Trading has never been about who earns more, but about who loses less, lives one more day, and goes further.
