This market has always been retail investors in the light, and the main players in the dark.

The main players are invisible to retail investors; they can't see them up close.
Retail investors are transparent to the main players; even if wearing thermal underwear + down jacket, the main players can see every mole on their body.
Therefore, retail investors in this market are destined to make small profits and big losses, ultimately losing everything.
So is there a solution?
Of course there is. If there wasn't, retail investors wouldn't participate, and a market without retail investors would cease to exist.
The solution is: extend the big cycle, follow the trend, reduce the number of trades, and increase the profit/loss ratio per trade.
Of course, not every retail investor has this condition; it requires sufficient knowledge and professional skills to support it.

A bull market is not only about rising but also about corrections;
A bear market is not only about falling but also about rebounds.
The ups and downs are all aimed at injecting more fuel into the market, making the market bigger and stronger.
Gold dropped from a high of 5600 to a low of 4100, currently at 4600.
4100 is far from the bottom of this bear cycle, and it hasn't broken yet.
One reason is to provide fuel for the market; another is that the bear cycle isn't just a day or two, or a month or two.
So don't rush; impatience won't cook hot tofu.
Constantly entering and exiting the market will inevitably encounter "strong enemies" and get killed.
The high position in a bear market is mainly about shorting; the low position in a bull market is mainly about spot buying.

BTC dropped to a low of 60,000 in early February, then rebounded over 30% to 79,000, with nearly three months of range-bound oscillation, all time frames achieved.
Next, focus on whether the daily MA30 and MA120 can form a golden cross.
If they do, it will probably happen in about a week, then a big drop will begin;
If not, a big drop could happen at any time in early May, with MA30 turning downward directly.
After the rebound, set up short positions to wait for the big drop;
After the big drop, close shorts and re-enter rebounds;
The bear market cycles back and forth like this, but profits still outperform the market.
