In a bull market, the risk of facing losses is actually higher

During a bull market, not only does the risk of incurring losses increase, but often these losses are 'unnecessary', meaning they arise from emotional fluctuations or deviations from the original strategy.

In contrast, during a bear market phase, due to smaller price fluctuations and limited market liquidity, it may take up to half a month for prices to drop by 10%, and the process of loss is relatively gentle, akin to the 'slow fire boiling a frog' effect.

However, in a bull market environment, price fluctuations are severe and market liquidity is abundant; a one-hour candlestick chart may show more than a 5% fluctuation.

If one does not adhere to an established trading strategy and enters the market randomly, they often encounter situations where prices rapidly rebound just after executing a stop-loss, or they attempt to short during a brief price pullback, only to be caught off guard by a subsequent sharp rise.

Such 'unnecessary losses' can easily lead to a psychological imbalance, triggering intense emotional fluctuations, which in turn causes operations to further deviate from the established strategy, ultimately falling into a vicious cycle of continuously expanding losses.
