You should hold back from selling, and it is best to add a moderate position. When pessimism surrounds you, most people can't do it.For another example, the price of the company you bought has risen above the reasonable valuation, and the rising momentum is very fierce. Can you resist the impulse to continue holding and choose to sell? After the sale, the stock price continues to double at the price you sold. Can you hold back the whole process without moving, thinking or regretting? This is also very difficult to do.To sum up, just one sentence: when holding a position, don't be afraid to fall. Since you have chosen to hold a position, there are reasons for your choice. Not only don't be afraid, the more you fall, the more you want to buy it. When you are short, you are not afraid of rising, and always keep enough cash to wait for the unexpected big opportunity.
