Recently, I encountered a particularly stable market trend. To be honest, my luck has been quite good. The movement seemed to have no significant fluctuations, but I still got caught for 1u—if this happened to someone else, they might have already been overwhelmed. Although the loss per trade wasn't large, I experienced this "silent drop" repeatedly, hitting every small retracement accurately.



It was this experience that made me realize that even in such extremely flat markets, there is still room for operation. The key is how to operate. My advice is to abandon the idea of inverse leverage and switch to spot selling or a short spot portfolio. The reason is simple—inverse leverage is most easily exploited by these occasional small drops, which repeatedly cut the leek in a flat market. Instead of waiting to be squeezed, it's better to actively sell and keep the risk in your own hands.

Now I have closed all my inverse positions. Recently, this has been the most stable period of my trading—I'm not saying there were no losses, but my mindset is more stable, my strategy clearer, and I am no longer scared by those sudden small fluctuations. This lesson is worth sharing.
