Retail traders have no chance of shorting successfully

Short and long trading are two completely different logics,
Shorting requires position rolling, and the strategies are vastly different, using the simplest math example:
100 drops to 50 is a 50% decline, 100 drops to 75 is a 25% decline, and 75 drops to 50 is a 33% decline, do you understand?
People who truly understand trading know that shorting is not the same as holding as a strategy,
but should involve more frequent entries and exits to achieve higher returns.
The cycle for going long generally lasts longer than for shorting, and the process is more complex. And bear markets often trigger suddenly, which is related to market psychology:
When the market enters a bearish sentiment, short sellers want to profit by dumping,
holders are afraid and exit, speculators are liquidated due to high leverage,
all market participants are squeezed into a powerful force, ultimately leading to a rapid downward cycle of liquidation in a very short time.
In contrast, going long appears inefficient and full of disagreements,
long traders want to profit by pushing prices up,
holders want to profit and will exit,
speculators want to profit and exit early, or get caught in a pullback during the process.
In summary, making money going long is easy but inefficient, shorting is difficult but efficient,
if you haven't made money going long, don't consider shorting.
