After experiencing several painful lessons, I finally understand a key issue. Long-term holding can indeed capture the benefits of major trends, but the risk is encountering a one-sided surge—if you're not careful, you might miss the entire main upward wave and suffer a complete loss. Recent trades suddenly made me realize that I am not suited for ultra-long-term holding.

After reflection, I found that I am actually better suited for short-term trading of 1 to 3 days. This pace allows me to quickly buy the dip after each major decline, take profits immediately, and avoid greed at the bottom of the market. Instead of sticking rigidly to a pattern, it's better to focus on precise entry points and timing—these are areas I actually do quite well.

The core now boils down to two points: first, loosen your stop-loss; second, take profits decisively when there are gains. It's that simple. I finally understand it this time!
