Looking back at the trading decisions four months ago, continuously shorting BTC has taught me a hard lesson. How absurd do my judgments seem now? Every day holding the position has been a slap in the face. This is the most straightforward lesson the market teaches traders — in the face of trends, stubborn short strategies can be deadly. But it is precisely because of this experience that I truly understand the importance of risk management and following the trend. Those days of unwavering bearishness have now become the best negative examples.
