You always feel that waiting in cash for opportunities is a waste of time.

But what you are really wasting is making random moves in a market without trends, consuming yourself during periods with no winning probability.

You are not just half a step slower on the road to making money,

You are mistaking patience for weakness and treating random orders as a form of control.

When emotions can't hold up, that's when you rush to trade;

When the rhythm is thrown off, that's when you get trapped by the false proposition of 'not being able to stay in cash.'

Ultimately, staying in cash is not failure,

Not being able to endure staying in cash is.
