Doing swing trading is getting a bit addictive… In the market that dropped from 140, I kept cutting my positions in SOL along the way. The day before yesterday, I completely sold out at 126. At that time, I thought—wait for another dip overnight, buy back below 115, and make a guaranteed profit. But what happened? I stayed up all night watching the market, and the lowest it went was 123 before bouncing back. Now I’m in a no-position state. After these days of trading, I’ve made about a thousand bucks overall, which is basically pocket money.
But here’s the problem—rather than dropping further, the market seems to be showing signs of moving upward. Being in a no-position state makes me feel uneasy. The worst part is, if SOL suddenly starts a sustained upward trend, I’ll be stuck on the sidelines with no position, just watching helplessly. Sometimes the market doesn’t follow your script, and that’s probably the most frustrating part.

This is the curse of the wave, greed is just enough to be countered by the market.

This is the fate of swing trading. Making a thousand dollars feels even worse... Sitting on the sidelines and being bullish is truly torturous.
