The master approaches the market, observing its form, discerning its meaning, examining its timing, and assessing its momentum. Act at the end of Yin and stop at the peak of Yang.
Their heart is as unmoving as a mountain, their nature as changeable as water, deeply understanding the subtlety of the mutual transformation of Yin and Yang, and the common occurrence of rises and falls. Without joy, without sorrow, without objects, without self, using the formless as the law, with laws complementing each other, this is the true master!
In the game of the market, one should first clear their mind and desire, remain calm and composed, and adjust their positions according to the overall market situation, with a weak market limited to one-third and a strong market to two-thirds, and should not be full. Just as a skilled archer does not exhaust their bow's strength, being fully invested limits one's ability.
Enter the market by observing the overall market volume to determine its momentum, then observe individual stocks to gauge their benefits, adapt to circumstances, focus on strengths, and act on weaknesses. Entering in Yin and exiting in Yang, stopping at the breaking point, and remaining still in ignorance.
Yet, the game is in adaptation, the strategy is in mastering the mind, understanding comes from long observation, and change is about seizing unexpected victories. Curb greed by selling more as prices rise, and curb fear by buying more as prices fall. Over time, the heart becomes clear and the mind enlightened, achieving a unity of knowledge and action. Accumulate small victories to achieve great success, ultimately returning to the state of non-being.
