In 95% or more of the time throughout the year, the market oscillates, and there is only 5% of the time that is a single direction of increase or decrease, which means that we rely on short-term trading in daily life. Do not underestimate short-term trading. From March to August 2013, Bitcoin continued to oscillate between 24800 and 31000 for half a year, which many described as a hellish difficulty level. However, I succeeded in achieving 15 bitcoins from the original 18.2 bitcoins, but I would sell at the peaks every day and end up with nothing for half a year, unable to exit in time. In mid-October, the price of Bitcoin rose by 8000 points at midnight, and I made 16.8 bitcoins. After that, I noticed that the daily and weekly MACD indicators had crossed the zero axis, indicating complete upward strength, and the long trend continued for half a year in succession. Only then was I able to offset the significant losses and achieve doubled profits.
Most of the time, there is almost one opportunity a day to enter a low long and a high short. Choose how you choose. In the current big trend stage, it is better to enter a short deal at high levels, and enter a long deal at low levels with the least possible number of contracts. If you are not sure, try using futures contracts. Accept market fluctuations, just like accepting imperfect aspects, frustration, and regret in life. If you can overcome all these challenges and move forward, you may volunteer the stronger version of yourself.
