When trading, don't be a sheep in wolf's clothing
In trading, distinguishing between 'facts' and 'opinions' is crucial, extremely important
Technical analysis traders make trades based on charts; they act and respond according to how the charts change
However, many people are merely subjective feeling traders, not true chart traders.
They 'feel' it will go up, long;
They 'feel' it will go down, short;
They 'feel' it has risen too much, short;
They 'feel' it has fallen too much, long.
In other words, they are not chart traders; they are subjective feeling traders. They do not trade based on actual market changes but instead place orders to satisfy their expectations and their own comfortable feelings.
