Trailing with the trend wins miraculously; this is why trend-following can win
Contrarian strategies fail simply because the market turns in the opposite direction
If you learn contrarian first, you are bound to end up as a loser
So the best bet is to win with trend-following
Contrarian is the last line of defense
Just persistently chase with trend-following and extract profit from the final pus
Honestly, I’m secretly hoping to win by miracle
Almost no ability to judge or analyze
No analytical ability whatsoever
But that is the answer to beating fundamentals by ignoring them
Actually, if you give trend-following any analytical ability, you tend to lose
In fact, highly analytical trend-following is all about timing
You can tell by looking at the market
Because the favorable period is fleeting
Because market phases are often temporary
In those times, an analysis-focused trend-following must decisively take profits
There will come times when you face forced stop-loss and profit-taking
Trend-following isn’t all that wonderful
If you use trend-following as merely a temporary profit strategy
You’ll end up losing later on
It’s easier to fall into the “contrarian-style trend-following”
That’s the trap of trend-following
Since trend-following requires you to leave things alone
There’s no thrill
Only those who can maintain that style can keep it going
It requires the right kind of mental state to sustain that style
If you’ve tried trend-following in past markets and feel you can’t handle it
Then you’ve likely not truly been good at it, and you won’t become good at it
Trend-following won’t yield profits if you can’t chase them
Because in ranging markets you can get wiped out entirely
Not particularly lucrative
When it becomes profitable, it’s truly lucrative
But that period is actually quite rare
Because that’s what trend-following is
Trend-following is a miracle-profit strategy that has endured, so be aware

That is the culmination of contrarian trend-following
If you can’t win with that,
Trend-following wasn’t very profitable
In the end, it’s a “paper theory of trend-following”
