The strategy of a bull market used in a bear market is a slow suicide Driving in a bull market is thanks to being able to come back with a bit of resilience, and even earning more by adding positions - this experience will form a muscle memory in your mind. Then the trend changed, and you continued to hold on until the position was liquidated. This is not a technical analysis issue, it's because the environment has changed and your strategy hasn't changed. A bull market relies on trends, while a bear market relies on positions. When the trend is correct, even full positions feel insufficient; when the trend is wrong, even 20% of positions feel excessive. But the most fatal thing is that the trend has changed, and you're still using last month's logic to convince yourself that it's just a pullback. Many people lose money not because they are looking in the wrong direction, but because they are using the right tools at the wrong time. Just like wearing summer clothes into winter, the clothes are fine but the season is not right. Rule of thumb: If your position makes you wake up at night to look at the market, then it's too much. Reduce to a level where you can sleep peacefully before discussing trading strategies. Sleeping is a hundred times more important than being able to see accurately.
