Yesterday's market started with a slight gap up, basically hovering around the previous day's closing level. Throughout the day, it surged twice and tested the bottom three times, with each bottom being lower than the last. In the end, it closed with a doji star, appearing lukewarm. On individual stocks, more declined than rose, but there were signs of a slight increase in trading volume.

From the trend characteristics, yesterday was a typical oscillation and consolidation, without a direct breakthrough upward. The reasons are not hard to understand—on one hand, new funds entering the market are insufficient; on the other hand, profits have been taken too extensively, increasing the selling pressure pushing prices down, which weakens upward momentum.

However, from the perspective of candlestick patterns, after two consecutive large bullish candles, a doji star appeared, which does not yet form a top structure. Plus, the trading volume did not shrink significantly, indicating that the market still has the capacity to hit new highs. Therefore, a short-term top has not truly formed, meaning there is still room for upward movement before new highs are made. Based on this judgment, one could consider waiting until the market pushes out new highs, then choosing appropriate opportunities to realize profits and moderately reduce positions.

Yesterday was the first day of the current round of widespread decline in individual stocks. According to previous patterns, a broad decline usually lasts for two days, followed by a small rebound opportunity. If today the market still hasn't hit new highs at the open and continues to decline, then stocks sold at high levels earlier could be considered for some re-entry. For example, if you sold a stock at $10 the day before yesterday, and yesterday it fell 1.5%, and today it opens down another 1.5%, with a total decline of over 3% in two days. If the stock's chart still looks good, the fundamentals are decent, and it’s not a highly volatile speculative stock, then you might choose to buy some back. To be safe, you could first buy back half of the original amount, provided the market hasn't hit new highs yet.
