      ⚡ When Lightning Strikes the Market: My Strategy of Calm and Cashflow

      In times of market panic, most retail investors run — I don’t. I stay, and if the setup is right, I press in. I’ve learned that real wealth is built not during the bull market, but in the fearful chaos of a downturn. It’s when prices disconnect from fundamentals that my edge reveals itself. Many panic-sell, hoping to sidestep the crash. But history is clear: missing the worst days may spare you pain, but missing the best rebound days costs you fortune. It’s not timing the market that wins — it’s strategic positioning with discipline and patience. ⸻ 📉 When Others Sell, I Sell Puts On green days, when stocks are stable or rising, I lean into opportunity. Take my Alphabet (GOOGL) position as an example. I own 101 shares of GOOGL, purchased at an average cost of $135.47 — now sitting at $168.1

      🌟🌟🌟Investing is very much like being exposed to the elements in the weather.  One day it is sunny, the next day it could be stormy.  In the course of my investing journey, there have been lots of adverse weather, some even with electrifying scary lightning strikes. However being a seasoned investor, I take it in my stride, striving to remain calm and focused on my goal of FIRE - Financial Independence Retire Early. When the lightning strikes, it is time to take action by buying quality stocks that are on sale.  Volatility is the price I am prepared to pay for long term gains. @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @Tiger_SG

      Able to catch the good stock during a market crash and to benefit from its rebound later is of course the best scenario all investors hope for. Knowing when to buy and sell a stock is vital for an investor’s survival. It is important that an investor should stay engaged with the market and be able to sense the change in market direction.

      $Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ When it comes to the stock market, timing is everything — or is it? Investors often dream of catching the next Tesla before it takes off, the next Nvidia before AI became a trillion-dollar buzzword, or Bitcoin before it hit $100k. But here's the million-dollar question: Do you really need to be there when lightning strikes — or is it enough to just be in the storm? Lightning moments — earnings beats, Fed pivots, geopolitical surprises — are unpredictable. Trying to catch them is like standing in a field holding a metal rod, hoping for glory but risking a shock. Some traders chase the flash, hoping for that one perfect trade. But the quiet accumulators, the patient ones who weather the storm and stick to the fundamentals, ofte

      Data has shown that it is hard to time the market and even professionals don’t get it right. This is further compounded with trump as president with tariffs and potential trade wars that adds to volatility. I think the easiest way is to stay invested. It is definitely important to make sure that one has sufficient cash to deploy when the market is down. Luck and guts are definitely important to be able to scoop up good stocks when stock crash. When the market is up, I think having the decisiveness to take profit to secure the gains would be beneficial to having sufficient cash to deploy again when the market pulls back. Swing trading is also beneficial to adding to gains. One cannot be too greedy. Afterall, no one can always buy at the lowest and sell at the highest.

      I believe staying invested during market panic is key to long-term success. It's tough emotionally, but history shows that rebounds often follow the worst crashes. I remind myself that while crashes hit fast like lightning, they can lead to strong recoveries. The idea of missing the best and worst days is eye-opening. Avoiding the worst days boosts returns, but timing that is incredibly hard. That’s why I use a buy-and-hold approach for core positions, with some cautious adjustments during volatile times to manage risk. For most of us, the best move is to stay disciplined and avoid emotional decisions. We may not predict when lightning strikes, but staying in the market gives us the best shot at catching the recovery. @Tiger_comments
