During the alternating phase between bear and bull markets, no matter how much short-term adjustments there are, the range is limited, and after the adjustment, it usually resumes rebounding and often makes new highs. So if you want to turn a long position into a swing-to-long-term position, you must be able to withstand short-term pullbacks, because in many cases it is not easy to catch an ideal low entry from the left side: either you miss it by a little and end up missing the move, or you enter a little too early and have to endure a brief unrealized loss. Time and space are always proportional.
In a medium- to long-term bullish trend, I do not recommend frequent trading, opening and closing positions every day. It is exhausting and easy to wear yourself down. The best way is to take profits in batches, always keeping a core position as a base, able to move up or down. I simply do not like opening and closing positions every day, making one trade after another; I am not that diligent. The reason I post point-based strategies every day is entirely because I am forced to; with a group, there is no other way.
My longest long position was held from November 2022 until February 2025, and it was never fully closed. In between, I only took profits in batches and never spent a single day without a position. Because I have too many accounts, if I were to make one trade after another every day, I would be exhausted to death. Only medium- to long-term trading can maximize profits during the alternating bear-bull phase and the early stage of a mini bull market.
On the road ahead, there are not only flowers and morning glow, but more often thorns and gloom. Where there are rebounds and big rallies, there will definitely also be pullbacks and declines. If you want to hold a long position for the long term, and if there is some expectation of short-term downside early on, while forced liquidation is not absolutely safe, the best approach is to hedge with 1/6 to 1/7 of the long position. Think big-picture: whether a small short position makes money or not does not matter. What matters is that the long position makes money, because the long position is the main part. Since the bear market is already in its late stage, pullbacks no longer imply a one-way downward trend, so long positions are definitely the core source of profit. At this time, the prices of btc, eth, and sol are still not high. If you cannot hold long positions now, then when prices rise to 120000/4200/257 later, you will be even less able to hold them. The higher the price goes, the more afraid people become of a drop, and then going long cannot be carried out normally. So right now is the best time to train yourself to buy from the bottom upward and keep your position steady. You must find the position ratio, leverage multiple, and the pace of taking profits in batches and buying dips in batches that suit you best, so that you can survive for the long run.
