Holding spot positions instead of shorting has honestly saved me so much headache these past months. The key is staying patient—without a clear top signal or compelling market narrative pushing higher, there's no point chasing rallies. Just holding and waiting beats the stress of trying to time exits. Those random market spikes and reversals always catch traders off guard when they're overextended. Sometimes the best move is doing nothing and letting the spot bags ride until the setup actually shows up. Takes discipline, but it works.
