These days, practical operations have helped me gradually develop a feasible bottom-fishing strategy. Many traders tend to fall into a vicious cycle of chasing gains and selling losses, following the trend when prices rise, and being forced to cut losses when the market declines. However, if you can summarize trading experience and establish a systematic approach, you can achieve stable profits even in choppy markets.

My approach is simple: when a significant pullback occurs during an upward trend, after a large bearish candlestick appears, as long as the next day's K-line closes higher, I choose to go long. Although this technical signal may seem basic, mastering it to the extreme creates a complete profit-making model.

The key is persistence. Accumulating small profits every day gradually builds trading confidence and ultimately helps find your own rhythm for making money. Being able to profit in different market environments is a sign of a mature trader.

A large bearish candle followed by a bullish candle the next day to go all-in? Sounds simple, but in practice, the mental hurdle can stop half of the people. Persistence is really difficult. I can especially understand the pain of cutting losses, but this is truly the foundation for survival. So the key is to have your own system and not blindly follow the trend. There's nothing wrong with that statement.

Sounds good, but very few people can truly stick to this method. It's easy to say, but execution is hell. I've tried similar strategies myself. The key is mindset—whether you can stick to the system during losses. That's the real dividing line. I've used signals like a large bearish candle closing as a bullish one; I've made money and lost money—it's just a matter of probability. In choppy markets, there are indeed profits to be made; it all depends on how long you can withstand the psychological pressure.

That's right, but the main concern is whether they can stick with it. Most people still have their mindset broken.

Honestly, this set of logic sounds good, but the key is to go through a few bear markets to really know if it works. If you ask me, sticking to two words is easy; whether you can hold up when the market reverses is the real test. Buy when the bearish candle turns bullish? Sounds simple, but in actual operation, there are many traps. Earning small profits every day definitely improves your mindset, but I'm just worried that one day it might break through the support level directly. This method probably works well during sideways trading, but when a real big trend comes... hmm. You're not wrong, but people who chase the highs and sell the lows tell themselves the same thing, and in the end, they still lose. Persistence is correct, provided the direction is right. If the direction is wrong, then persistence becomes hanging oneself. Highly skilled traders are bold, but I've seen too many confident traders end up zeroed out in the end.
