I took a quick look at the discussion in the square, and it’s interesting. The screen is full of bearish voices, and almost no one is calling for a rally — I’ve seen this scene too many times. Honestly, every time this happens, I end up losing money, and the reason is quite painful: I see this kind of candlestick pattern and reflexively follow the trend to short, only to be mercilessly liquidated.

This time, I decided to try a different approach. Since everyone is frantically calling for a short at this price level, I’ll open a small long position and try a contrarian move. It sounds like throwing a tantrum, but I want to see: can a contrarian approach really avoid liquidation? Or will I get beaten again this time?

Let’s consider this as an experiment for my trading logic.

Haha, isn't this just throwing a tantrum and going long? I do that all the time too, and then I get liquidated just like that, haha.

Ha, isn't this just my daily routine? Reverse operations sound impressive, but they're actually gambling.

Haha, I understand this move, just following the trend to die, brother. --- Counter-attack the bottom, this time I bet right and made a huge profit; if I bet wrong, just consider it tuition. --- When the whole screen is shouting short, that's often the bottom. I also want to try reverse thinking. --- Trying small positions to test the waters is a good idea, just don't go all in. --- The frustrating part is being cut every time. This time, I’ve truly gone all in. --- It's a psychological game, seeing who can hold on longer. --- From experience, I’ve shorted and blown up before, and now I’m starting to reflect on the foolishness of following the crowd. --- Experimentation is correct, but I worry that after the experiment, the money is gone. --- Most people lose money because they can't understand this point. Brother, you’ve woken up. --- Trading out of spite is often the clearest. Anyway, following the rules is a dead end.
