Totally agree. In the real world, very few people can make money in every industry, and even in investing, almost no one profits from every single trade or makes the right call every time. The most important thing is understanding the industry and the track you're on.
Of course, when you're riding the wave, even pigs can fly. That's why many people can make money during a single trend, but when the trend gets complicated, it's easy to give it all back.
For example, I didn’t make much money from this AI wave. I completely missed out on the storage sector because my research logic didn’t focus on it, and my understanding of it is too weak. My AI research is more on the electricity side. I’ve made some moves in electricity, like buying AEIS for under $200 back then, and now I’m still looking for new targets in the electricity sector.
Aside from AI, I’ve been making money shorting WTI, and this is already my fourth wave of short positions. The profits have been pretty solid. The key isn’t necessarily chasing the current hot trends to make money, but buying into what you understand. Only when you understand something can you hold onto it.
WTI is what I understand the best. No matter what others say, I keep shorting at the highs. Even when it hit $104, I dared to keep shorting because I know $120 is roughly the upper limit for this phase. So, I just short it.
Find your own 'moat' and make a big move when things are relatively certain. Aim for trades with the highest certainty.
