The reality of the left-side needle strategy

Abstract generation in progress

My strategy is simple. When the downswing comes, grab the knife. Set a tight stop loss, and if swept, buy back at a lower key position—until they can't clear out anymore.

When a black swan comes and the volume increases at the bottom, I will invest 90% in spot positions. If there is a narrow decline, I will remain passive with the spot, and only use 10% for derivatives to take some profits. If it breaks below the key position after a rebound, I will reduce my holdings (sometimes I will reduce at the bottom). The 30% tail position will break even.

Winning rate? It's a piece of crap. But the risk-reward ratio is divine. 1:10 is the minimum line. 1:several tens is the norm.

However, in a range market or during times of low momentum, losses can drag on endlessly. So it’s really not for everyone.

This is the honest part: Almost no one follows me to the position where I grab the needle. No matter how many times I say it live, everyone hesitates. After floating profits started to appear, I also began to chase. Then complaints come in. “Sell it,” “Don't miss the chance,” there's pressure.

If you make a profit, it's thanks to me; if you lose, it's my fault. That's how it is.

Important Note: If you are buying and selling based only on the voices in the square, it's better to just stop. It's better to donate that money to underprivileged areas.

Don't blame others for your bottom position being liquidated. Even if they don't say anything, you weren't holding on. Is there anyone who can grab it when the entire crowd recommends shorting?

When it goes up, they say “I lost because of them,” and when it goes down, they say “I escaped first,” praising themselves. But… how many years have you been doing this? If you don't have your own judgment criteria, you'll be a VIP in a multi-level marketing scheme in 10 years.
