      When I want to buy stocks, the share price keeps falling, so I often do the logical thing—keep adjusting my limit price down… until I never actually get to buy the stock. But if I finally manage to buy it? Boom. The stock crashes faster than my confidence. 📉 And if I don’t get to buy? Oh, suddenly, the stock decides to take off like a rocket, leaving me behind like I missed my flight. 🚀 At this point, I’m convinced the stock market isn’t about supply and demand—it’s just waiting to personally mess with me.

      Left or Right-Side Trading: Which Approach Do You Prefer?

      In trading, two main strategies emerge: left-side trading and right-side trading. Each approach comes with its own risks and rewards, and the choice largely depends on an individual’s risk tolerance, market knowledge, and investment goals. Understanding Left-Side Trading Left-side trading refers to entering the market before a trend is confirmed. Traders who follow this strategy attempt to predict market movements in advance, often relying on technical indicators, historical price patterns, and market sentiment. For example, when Tesla’s stock price dropped significantly, many investors speculated that it would continue declining, with some even predicting it would fall below $200. However, left-side traders might have seen this as an opportunity, believing that the stock was undervalued a

      I don’t trade or invest in Telsa. But I m a long term investor for SG market. Nobody is able to predict the trend of the stocks. For me, once I have the money to “burn”, I will just go in and “conquer”. Of course, I will do my TA and then will do my cost per each unit before I q my price for the stock. Sometimes, the downtrend price movement is so fast that I don’t have sufficient time to pull out my queue. I will end up like panda 🐼🐼. [Happy][LOL][Chuckle]. This was what happened to me last month with $Mapletree Ind Tr(ME8U.SI)$. Black eyes for both cash & SRS. But now I have the final laugh 😂🤭[Chuckle][Grin][LOL][Happy] to the bank. Anyway, this month yet to SG stocks hunting as my mind is still floating after 2 weeks vacation and attended charity appreciation dinner last night.

      I am a right-side trader. For example, the HK market has been dropping in the last 4 years. In this market, I won’t be a left side trader as the lows can get even lower and I don’t want to be catching a falling knife. So, I prefer to be wait for the trend to reverse before entering or to enter when there is some sign of a rally. For US stocks and SREITS, I prefer to enter when my target price is reached as I tend to invest in these for the longer term. However, I may swing to become a left-side trader during earnings season. I might try to get ahead of a rally if I expect the company to be able to meet or exceed expectations. This is risky, so it has to be stock that I believe in the longer term prospects and the entering price has to be reasonable.

      Type of Investor: I'm more of a risk-managed trend follower, preferring to enter trades with some level of confirmation, especially in volatile stocks like Tesla. I’d typically avoid trying to pick exact bottoms or tops unless I have strong technical or fundamental reasons to do so. However, depending on the market environment or specific stock, I might use a contrarian approach selectively for stocks that I believe are undervalued or oversold, but I'd generally wait for more signals of market recovery before committing substantial capital. Ultimately, Tesla’s price movements seem to align more with momentum traders and option traders who thrive on volatility. The right-side trading strategy might give me more comfort with its lower risk, but for those who are willing to take on more risk

      Left-side and right-side trading is a classic example of how traders and investors handle risk and market psychology. Both approaches have their merits and can be effective in different market conditions. Here's how I view them: Left-Side Trading: • Approach: Left-side trading involves entering the market before a trend is confirmed, often buying when a stock is experiencing a dip or downturn, anticipating a reversal before the majority of the market catches on. This requires a high level of conviction and the ability to withstand psychological pressure, as catching "falling knives" can result in significant losses if the trend continues downward. • Advantages: The potential for large profits if the reversal happens and you're in early.

      When trading Tesla $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ or other stocks, I adopt a mixed approach that combines both left-side and right-side trading, depending on the market trend.  During a downtrend, I prefer to be a left-side trader, identifying potential bottoms before the broader market recognizes them. This requires a contrarian mindset and the ability to endure short-term volatility, as catching a falling knife is never easy. However, I believe that when a stock like Tesla experiences excessive pessimism and irrational selling, it often presents an opportunity for long-term gains. By entering early, I position myself ahead of the crowd, capitalizing on the eventual recovery once selling pressure fades. On the other hand

      Left-side trading refers to entering the market early, predicting changes before a trend is confirmed. Right-side trading, on the other hand, waits for the trend to be confirmed before making a move. This phenomenon often occurs in the stock market. For example, $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ recently dropped to $217, with public sentiment claiming it was worthless and everyone waiting for it to go below $200. However, two days ago, Tesla rebounded to $270, and people started buying again.This situation is driven by the characteristics of left-side and right-side trading. Left-side traders possess the contrarian ability to buy the dip before a trend is established. However, many people, especially beginners, are unable to predict market changes in advance a
