Do you often think like this?
Look down
"Sell everything when it rises, buy again when it falls!" This kind of operation sounds smart, but it is actually a typical short-term retail investor mentality. Because the market does not move according to our emotions; when it rises, it often continues to rise, and if you sell, you might miss out on a big wave of market movement; when it falls, it doesn't necessarily stop falling immediately, and as a result, you buy again only to get trapped.
The real issue is that this kind of operation is completely driven by emotions — afraid of missing out when it rises, afraid of being left out when it falls, resulting in always buying high and selling low. In the long run, the market relies on these counterintuitive actions to wash people out.
If you really want to make money, the core is still in "having a strategy" and "controlling emotions." Understanding how to judge trends and capture long-term value will prevent you from getting caught in short-term cycles of rises and falls. After all, the market loves to harvest those who only look at the present and not the long term — the short-term retail investors.
Investment is about accumulating little by little!
