A lot of people label me as a "short-term trader." But to be honest, I never categorize my trades by duration—what matters is whether the logic behind the trade stands up.
A few examples: when there was a liquidity gap across exchanges for slerf, I decisively went long; when Musk and Trump were feuding on social media, I shorted doge immediately; on October 11 last year, when Trump suddenly posted about a trade war, I shorted BTC right away; during those moments of massive crashes and panic? That's actually my best opportunity to scoop up small coins.
If the logic is right, holding for a day is a trade, and holding for a month is also a trade. The length of time isn’t the point—if you’re confident in your judgment, just go for it.

This guy is right, logic is the core, and the time frame is really not that important.
---
This set again, as long as there is a story, you can make money? How do I feel that the smell of hindsight is quite strong.
---
The slerf wave is indeed absolute, and the ability to perceive the details of the fluidity fault is not something that ordinary people have.
---
"If you see it, do it" is easy to say, what to do when you really lose money, I didn't listen to you unfold this.
---
Musk and Trump are angry with each other? Why does it feel like telling a story, how can the actual transaction be so smooth.
---
Co-authorship is "following the trend", and packaging academic points becomes "logical transactions", understand.
---
I like the trick of plummeting and sweeping small coins, it is indeed an opportunity, it depends on who has guts and dares to move at that time.
---
To be honest, I have heard this theory too many times, the key is to look at the execution, most people die emotionally.
---
The wave of the Trump trade war is indeed a quick response, but the question is how to know when the "next Trump essay" will come?
---
I love to hear that logic is tenable, but most "logic" becomes gambling when it comes to real games.

Logical trading is indeed more reliable than time cycles, but the fear is misjudging and repeatedly getting stopped out.

This guy is right, logic is everything. The length of time really doesn't matter.
---
Damn, as long as you pull the trigger at the precise moment, who cares about all that long-term or short-term stuff.
---
I was in on that Trump wave too, just reacted a bit slow. Looks like I still need more practice.
---
That small-cap sweep strategy is brutal, I just chickened out.
---
A closed logic loop is the most important thing, honestly, it's that simple.
---
That DOGE short was so satisfying. I saw Musk and him going at each other the whole time.
---
Seriously, are there still people hung up on long-term vs. short-term? You should be looking at the logic by now.
---
Liquidity gaps are tough opportunities to catch, you have to react fast enough.
---
Holding for a day or holding for a month is basically the same, as long as the logic holds up.
---
Sweeping small caps while the market bleeds—your nerves must be made of steel for that.

I agree with this line of reasoning; I just don't know how many pitfalls you had to encounter before realizing this.

Ironically, I heard this same rhetoric at least ten times in 2017, and then all those people disappeared.

I only understood this logic after suffering losses. Now I do the same. The key really is to have conviction, not to focus on the cycle.
