Look at this trader's track record, profits steadily increasing. From the K-line patterns, it's mostly about going long to build a position first, then beautifully turning around to short. The account curve looks very attractive, but the cost is also significant—not only the pressure of drawdowns but also constantly fighting FOMO and market noise.
Swing trading may seem clever, but the risks are not small. However, based on historical data, market oscillations last much longer than trending moves. The problem is that most people simply can't handle sideways markets well. Where does the root cause lie? Greed. After finally opening a position, they wait and wait, only daring to re-enter when they find a "perfect entry point." Little do they realize, the ideal price is constantly changing just like the market. Waiting and waiting, that once-ideal opportunity is destroyed by impulsive greed. In the end? They can only watch the market slip away from them.
Actually, from a different perspective, if you only consider the entry points when you get out, over 90% of the time there will be better entry opportunities than holding the current position. This principle is the same as "no one can precisely catch the bottom or top." The logic of getting in and out also applies perfectly—rather than obsessing over perfection, it's better to go with the flow.
Waiting for the perfect entry point is easy to talk about but really difficult to do. The market has already moved, and you're still pondering.
Looking at others' account curves for swing trading always seems pretty satisfying, but executing it yourself involves endless retracements and pressure. FOMO is truly a demon.
Following the trend is much more reliable than aiming for perfection, but who can really do it? Most of the time, greed still hijacks us.
I need to think more about the 90% better opportunity; it feels like the core logic.
