Those paid influencers from the past couple of years, who used to charge tens of thousands for their insights, like Shura's Wisdom Academy, and what about the profit guys and the scalpers? Where have all these paid traders disappeared to? Can't find them anywhere in the market or on the square. Did they get liquidated, or did they just dip out? It's hard to believe they really left the scene, especially since charging for services is usually a guaranteed profit $BTC .
After three years, I'm back in the game. Family calling me up, telling me to get a 'real' job. My wife says it's either I quit trading or we get a divorce. I've lost over 20K in three years, and I’m not even gambling! I clock in over ten hours a day at work, not slacking off one bit. My monthly salary, between 8K to over 10K, goes straight to the family; I haven't misused a single cent. I just want to trade! What's wrong with that? Why do they think I’m gambling? I’m just thirty, and they want me to play it safe and work like a drone. I’m being responsible! Day job and at night, sneaking in some trades under the covers. I haven’t gone out in ten days or more, what else do they expect? I’m hustling every day, but my WeChat still shows I'm broke for too long. I'm fed up! $ETH
Why the hell does it always hover around 3500? I want a bigger position, but every time I think of my family, I get cold feet. As soon as I see some profits, I'm ready to bail. I've been stuck in this loop for 2 years now. It's nowhere near as good as when I first entered the game in 21; I never used to be scared. Why am I so anxious now? What’s up with that! I’m not gambling, why do you all insist I'm gambling? I only take a few trades a week, and I’m talking a few hundred bucks each time. What the hell am I gambling on?
These kicks have been worn out for two months, I'm really itching to buy this pair. I've been eyeing them for 3 days but haven't had the guts to pull the trigger. They're damn expensive! I lost out on 10 pairs the other day and now I'm even more hesitant to buy. 😭
Today's oil long position is solid. I jumped in right at the 8 AM open, took a bit of profit, and bailed out quickly. Why is it that even when I'm right, I can't seem to hold on? What's the deal with that?
This is the last bullet. I can only hold on for 3 more months before everything goes bust. Started the year at $4000 and now I'm down $500. Why can't I ever make a profit? I'm constantly grinding mentally, feels like I'm just wasting time every day. I haven't been able to make a profit for the last two years, can't even cut losses. Right now, the Bitcoin market is way too manipulated.
Continuing to share my views on the A-shares market
First up is energy; humanity will always need energy and will forever be chasing it. Electricity, solar, wind, nuclear, lithium, hydrogen, and controllable nuclear fusion—buy the ones at a low entry point.
Next, we have consumption—liquor, beer, beverages, milk, soy sauce, and pork. Anything related to our cravings is a never-ending market.
Finally, there's the pharmaceutical sector, which is quite complex. There are two strategies here: one is to buy companies with state-certified traditional Chinese medicine formulas, like Pianzi Huang and Yunnan Baiyao. The second is to invest in the top three pharmaceutical companies in R&D spending, such as Heng Rui Medicine and BeiGene.
As for tech stocks, I wouldn’t recommend them. But if you just have to get in, make sure to pick shovel stocks, like Cambrian and Yi Zhong Tian. Whether AI applications will take off is up for debate, but those stocks are definitely going to pay off big. Similar shovel stocks include North Huachuang in semiconductors; Maiwei in solar; and WuXi AppTec in pharmaceuticals.
Lastly, I want to emphasize that even if I tell you what to buy, you might still end up losing money. Investing is a systematic endeavor that includes stock selection, financing, position sizing, buy/sell decisions, holding and tracking, and risk management. Stock selection is just one part, and not even the most critical one. For the pros, what to buy is already a secondary concern.
I've been trading for five years, holding a few tens of thousands, and I've only dared to open positions of 200 dollars or 300 dollars. I'm afraid of losing; as soon as I see a loss, I want to cut it. I start fantasizing about why I'm always so unlucky. This time Bitcoin has risen so much, yet I've still lost 200 dollars. Damn it, I'm not human, I'm not anything, I'm an idiot, a coward, and the more I do it, the more afraid I become.
