When the market started to rise from the bottom in late November, I repeatedly reminded everyone of one thing—the current trend is a textbook bull-trap rebound. There's nothing wrong with being bullish, but you need to know when to exit. Many people see paper profits but can't cash out; to put it bluntly, they don't really understand the market. Money earned by luck is often easily lost.



My own strategy is very simple: every time the price rebounds near a key resistance level, I set up short positions. If you look back at my previous posts, at the spots marked by those three arrows, I always pointed out potential opportunities to go short. This isn't hindsight; I identified the structure in advance. Technical traders all understand resistance levels, but the key is whether you dare to go against the crowd when everyone is bullish.

Profits on paper can't be taken away—that's the fate of most people.

Making money is not difficult; what's difficult is not being trapped by your own greed.

That's right, it's the difference between knowing when to take profits and not knowing. The numbers on paper can be deceiving.

People don't cash out when they're making paper profits—I've seen this happen too many times. There just aren't many people who understand the technology.

Ha, it's another case of making money but not daring to cash out—truly unbelievable. --- To be honest, this rebound is just a trap. It looks like you're making money, but you're actually just giving gifts to others. --- The resistance level is right there. There are very few who dare to go against it; most people are still brainwashed by the bulls. --- Running away is actually simple if you think about it; it just depends on whether you're ruthless enough. --- Unrealized gains? Heh, that's just paper wealth. When it comes time to exit, the truth comes out. --- Should've been bearish long ago, but instead you keep holding. That's some seriously weak mental game. --- The technical pattern is so obvious, but unfortunately most people either can't read it or don't dare to trust it. --- Every key level is a great opportunity to lure in longs. There's nothing wrong with that logic.

Only money in hand is real; paper wealth is just a joke, haha.
