Eat meat or stand guard? The first "Profit and Loss Year-End Bonus" of the Year of the Horse

People are already at their desks, but their minds are still in the K-line. During the seven days of the Spring Festival, some enjoy hotpot with red envelopes, while others watch K-lines with fireworks. The essence of holiday market movements boils down to one sentence: you are visiting friends and family, but it’s all about the trend.

The "Eat Meat" camp usually has two characteristics:提前埋伏 (pre-positioning) and controlled positions. Buying low before the holiday, rallying during the holiday, sharing gains on social media, and staying humble with comments like "Just good luck." And don’t feel bad if you’re in the "Stand Guard" camp—liquidity tends to be thin during holidays, making volatility exaggerated. Not chasing the rise is itself a risk control skill.

What’s truly worth reviewing isn’t how much you made, but how you made it. Was it because you understood the structure, or purely driven by emotion? If profits come from executing a plan, that’s strength; if from impulsiveness, it’s just market luck.

The first positive signal of the Year of the Horse isn’t a surge, but your increased calmness compared to last year. During the holiday, avoid full positions, don’t gamble on directions, and don’t blindly leverage—these "boring disciplines" are often the real secret to wealth.

Sharing gains can be lively, but sharing methods lasts longer. Turning your holiday trading report into your own trading notes is more valuable than posting ten screenshots of profits. At the start of the Year of the Horse, it’s not about who earns faster, but who can go further. #马年开工第一帖
