I was bearish on this trend, but my judgment was completely wrong—the price just won't drop.



I just closed my positions. I didn't take profits in time before, so now I can only admit defeat and cut my losses to exit. This is the lesson the market gives—hesitate when you should exit, and in the end, you can only sell at a loss. Sometimes, when you get the direction wrong, you have to accept it; holding on stubbornly will only lead to bigger losses.

Haha, I've seen too many such contrarian indicators. OP is really pointing us in the right direction this time.

If you have to cut your losses, just do it. After all, no one can predict the market for sure. Just learn the lesson for next time.

Haha, this is what you call market education. Does it hurt?

Another repeat of the 2018 disaster. I’ve been through this before. If you make a wrong call, just accept the loss—holding on stubbornly is a death wish.

Ironically, data shows that every time people "accept their losses" like this, it's often the market bottom [smirk] --- Yet another person taught a lesson by the market—there sure are a lot. Historical lesson: those who cut their losses usually do so at the worst possible time. --- Interesting, so you have to admit you're wrong if you pick the wrong direction? Then how do you explain those who got it wrong last year but ended up making a fortune? --- Objectively speaking, the stop-loss and take-profit theory has too many loopholes; the market's irrationality is beyond imagination. --- Not to argue, but anyone who looks back at that 2020 wave knows how dangerous this kind of decision can be. --- I've heard the phrase "cutting losses and exiting" too many times. Every time it's called a lesson, yet next time people still can't resist. --- Wait, so the final lesson learned is... just accept your losses? Isn't that the same as learning nothing [funny]? --- I've seen this move many times, and interestingly, they always rush back in six months later.

Cutting your losses decisively is much better than being stuck and doing nothing.
