Many people watch the market all day and still lose money. The key is actually in the first half-hour after opening. I have summarized these years' patterns into 6 formations. Mastering them can save you a lot of tuition:

**Rising Types**
Break through the opening price and then fall back — this is a signal that the main force is fleeing. Follow and exit early. If it doesn’t break the opening and just pulls back? Retail investors are selling off, and there’s a good chance of a rebound in the afternoon, so don’t rush to run.

**Falling Types**
A rebound stuck below the opening price — retail investors are bottom-fishing, so take action during this rebound. But if it breaks through the opening price and keeps rising, that means the main force is entering, and you can follow.

**Oscillation Types**
A slight rise followed by sideways movement — the main force is quietly controlling the market. This is a signal of a potential trend reversal, so be prepared. If there’s hardly any fluctuation in half an hour? It indicates no big funds are involved today. Just watch the show and don’t mess around.

Within half an hour of opening, you can see the true intentions of the main force, which is more effective than technical indicators. Use it in conjunction with your trading plan to improve your market analysis efficiency significantly. There’s no guaranteed winning method in the market, but this approach can help you avoid many pitfalls.

It sounds good, but I tried it, and I still got eaten by the main players. What can you see in half an hour after the opening? The afternoon still reverses and drops. There are many theories like this, but in practice, it's completely different. I was sleeping during the first half-hour after the opening, and when I looked back, it was all reverse operations. What about the golden half-hour? My gold was all trapped. I’ve memorized six patterns until they’re worn out, but I still can't beat the algorithm. Breaking through the opening price and falling back is indeed uncomfortable, but who can guarantee it won't reverse in the afternoon? Really, these rules are useless to me; no matter how I operate, I always get it wrong. What's the point of high efficiency in watching the market? In the end, I still end up losing. If there's no movement in half an hour, I just watch the show, but I missed the surge. It's really ridiculous.

Watch the main force half an hour after the market opens? Bro, I've been using this method for a long time, and it really saves a lot of unnecessary money. You're right, technical indicators are lagging to death, it's better to just look at the market depth and order book temperature. If the market breaks down and falls back, just run. I have deep experience with this, I've been trapped many times here. I'm just worried that some people are still tangled up in various complex indicators, not realizing that the main force has already withdrawn. This approach is correct, but it must be combined with risk management; otherwise, a single mistake can bring you back to square one.

The words are good, but in the first half hour after opening, I see it as the main force bluffing. The real signal will only be clear in the afternoon.

The theory of opening half an hour sounds good, but very few people can actually stick to it and execute consistently. Most are still driven by emotions to make chaotic trades. --- Another seemingly perfect theory, but in actual operation, how can the main players be so easy to read? --- It's easy to say, but when it comes to the market, it's hard to tell whether it's the main players or retail investors. That's how I lost money. --- I've heard quite a few methodologies like this, but in the end, it's easier to understand than to implement. Self-discipline is the biggest enemy. --- The first half-hour after opening indeed has a lot of information, but the prerequisite is that you have enough resolve not to chase highs or sell lows. --- Honestly, just looking at patterns isn't enough; you still need to combine it with capital flow and sentiment indicators. Using this method alone can easily lead to pitfalls. --- Every time I think I've found a pattern, the market hits me with a black swan event, and that's the charm of trading. --- Breaking below the opening price to cut and run, or bouncing to buy at the bottom—I've tried reversing this logic, and I still end up losing money. It seems both buying and selling have their nuances.

Holding the position for half an hour after opening, I've been using this trick for three years, and it really saves a lot of unnecessary money.

Deciding the outcome within half an hour of opening, I agree with this logic, but how many can actually execute it?
