After trading for a long time, I realized the hardest part isn’t spotting opportunities, but waiting until the moment when it’s truly suitable to execute. When the price was stuck in repeated oscillations at the high range, I didn’t enter just because of a few quick dips; instead, I waited and made the decision only after a rebound confirmed that it lacked follow-through.
When the bears regained the upper hand, short positions were filled around 970.38. As the price fell back to 932.69, this position received a positive return of +183.92%. The process felt steadier than simply chasing the sell-off.
Once the market provides room to move, what you should do next isn’t keep daydreaming, but maintain your trading pace, protect your profits, and prevent drawdowns from expanding again. Getting the direction right is only the beginning—execution and the wrap-up are just as important.
Don’t chase positions you missed, and don’t guess on moves that didn’t get you out. Opportunities have always been there—the key is to keep patience.
