Carving the boat is actually the best way to review and learn, no doubt about it. We need to carve a boat that never changes. Find the patterns, find the principles, find what remains constant forever. What never changes? Human greed and fear never change. The conflict of interest between whales and retail investors never changes. The market at the top will always FOMO, and retail investors at the bottom will always panic. A bear market bottom will always require long periods of consolidation and turnover. Retail investors at the bottom will always need to cut losses, and whales will always need to accumulate.
