The characteristic of a bull market is that the market inexplicably rises, you
have no shares at all, and even want to short.
Have you noticed this kind of market? There are no large
candles with ten points in an hour, only gradual rises,
small incremental increases. This is a true
bull market, driven by incremental capital; remember that gradual rise = bull market. Only by holding long positions can you maximize profits during these small incremental rises; a large and short position cannot capture all the small gains (experience gained from five years of a major bull market)
