A couple of days ago, @xtony1314 came to find me. During our chat, I mentioned that I felt the market has been particularly good to trade in these past two years, and he seemed very surprised. He then said that he thinks it's been particularly hard to make money in these two years. I thought about it later, and realized that the same market conditions can feel completely different depending on the trading strategy used. I focus on long-term cycles and find that the market is generally moving in the direction I anticipated, which feels very easy. On the other hand, those trading contracts are mainly short-term, and under chaotic fluctuations, it becomes particularly difficult. For instance, I currently feel that BTC is very good below 120k, accumulating strength, and could reach 200k by the end of the year, while many contract traders think that reaching 150k would be good enough. I like the saying from the Tao Te Ching that 'the weak use the way,' which is why I enjoy slowly becoming wealthy; investing is about who can last longer.
