There's an interesting phenomenon I want to discuss—what's going on here? Not long ago, the comments were full of complaints and negative remarks. As a result, when the market started to rise this time, the sentiment instantly shifted, and now everyone is echoing the same voice.

This is actually a normal market behavior. Whenever prices are in a downturn, investors tend to be pessimistic; once the trend improves, emotions flip immediately. This shows that many people are not making judgments but are just following the crowd's sentiment. The real opportunities are often hidden when most people are not paying attention. Clarify your own investment logic and don't be swayed by public opinion—this might be the key to surviving longer in this market.

This is the self-cultivation of the leek (retail investors): when it rises, they go bullish; when it falls, they shout bearish. It's really interesting. To put it nicely, it's called following the trend; to be less kind, it's brainless investing. I've seen a lot of this. They were complaining at the lows, and now they're starting to hype again. They will never learn. The key is that most people don't have independent thinking at all; they are purely driven by emotions. So I usually operate in the opposite direction. When others are desperate, I tend to cautiously go long. The people who are truly making money had already been lurking in the black noise early on. In this round of the market, I had positions at the bottom. Seeing these people regret now feels really satisfying. By the way, how many of you actually dare to buy at the lows? I guess less than one in ten. The most disgusting are those who bash during the decline and then come out to show off their savings after the rise. The market is like this; retail investors will never change their habit of frequent trading.

Honestly, these bandwagoners are really outrageous. As soon as the market turns good, it's all "I knew it." I really can't hold it together.

The loudest complaints come during the trough, and when it rises, they are all believers. It's so funny haha Basically, it's the fate of the leek, with logic swinging along with the market Those who are truly making money have already shut up, only the ones who can't sell are still crying out This rebound has just started, and when it falls again, there will be another set of excuses Building positions on others' fear—that's the secret to lasting power Watching a bunch of people's emotions reverse, it truly shows the most authentic market picture Those who understand started positioning themselves during the pessimistic voices. Now pretending to be smart is the funniest

Ha, with this attitude, no one is really thinking about anything, it's all just follow-the-trend weirdos.

Exactly right, during the downturn everyone is pessimistic, and when it rises, they all become experts. So funny.

Complaining when it's sluggish, praising when it rises—truly the self-cultivation of retail investors.

That's right, those who criticized the most during the downturn are now all silent. That's why I never believe what people say in the group; it's all emotional trash. When the market turns, everyone starts talking again. It's really laughable; no one really thinks clearly about what they want. The most terrifying thing is follow-the-leader people; once one person leads, everyone follows—typical blind box mentality. So, the ones who make money are always those who don't speak up. Don't be swayed by public opinion; sticking to your own logic is the most important. Everything else is just noise.

Whenever the market rises, it's all about the bullish voices. These bandwagon followers are really something, haha. Basically, they're brainless bagholders who don't dare to buy at low prices and go crazy chasing at high prices. Let's see who can stay calm during a big drop—that's the real winner. By the way, reverse indicators are indeed useful. Just look at the comment section to see where the bottom is.
