Six investment taboos, how many can you avoid?

Avoid A-shares.
Avoid leverage.
Avoid contracts.
Avoid short-term trading.
Avoid candlestick charts.
Avoid futures.

You don’t need technical analysis, you don’t need to watch the market all day, you don’t need leverage, and you don’t need to judge bull or bear markets.

The simpler the strategy, the more it goes against human nature, and the more effective it is.
The essence of investing is not gambling, but putting your money where you trust it, and growing it together.
