Short-term and medium-term trading are very straightforward; they rely on changes in market indicators as the basis for decision-making and support. There's no need to pay excessive attention to news or to force-fit historical information to predict upcoming similar news events to guide your trades. The more complicated the information you receive, the more fragmented your thinking becomes, leading to hesitation and fear, making you feel every day that going long or short is uncertain, falling into self-doubt, and causing endless opportunities for short-term trading to slip away. Trading is ultimately simple—just follow the market indicators. When the medium-term trend is clear, take more positions. When it's not very obvious, just enter and exit on the same day. After the darkness, there is always a dawn; many times, the market moves gradually, so stay patient and focus on doing well in the present. Don’t aim too high; if you buy the bottom, you might want to quickly reach 120,000 in profit, but you also hope the price won’t reverse and drop below your average cost. Such good fortune doesn’t exist in this world.
On the road forward, there are not only flowers and morning glow but also thorns and gloom. Keep going, and ahead is a clear sky.
