If there is no trend, you have to grow slowly; when a trend comes, you have to increase your position and work hard.
Three elements of a trend:
1. The slope of the moving average increases
2. The moving average is arranged in a bullish pattern
3. The price respects the moving average
Once a trend comes, you have to completely change your mindset. Don't expect a big price retracement, but start working when the price reaches a key position
