Just a reminder, there is a high probability of entering a consolidation market in February and March.

In a consolidation market, you cannot have a fixed pattern; the focus should be mainly on short-term operations. At this time, profits should not be expected to be too high, and earnings should be taken promptly.

Moreover, most breakouts during consolidation are false breakouts, so it's essential to switch to a trend-following approach when entering the market.

Further thoughts on the consolidation market

Dealing with a consolidation market is essentially a "defensive counterattack" strategy.

Most of the time, we are on the defense:

Patiently observing, identifying boundaries, controlling positions.

In rare instances, we counterattack quickly:

Acting at clear boundary signals, taking profits quickly or securing earnings after making a profit.

Further, considering the consolidation market within our entire trading system,

Then we need to know when not to trade.

When the consolidation range is too narrow, boundaries are unclear, and market noise is extremely high, holding cash and observing is the optimal trading strategy.

Then the ultimate trading goal emerges.

The highest goal is not to profit at all times; you do not need to earn money every moment.

Instead, it is about being able to control your drawdowns in any market environment and avoiding black swans.

Maintaining stable growth of account assets.
