Are tariff risks about to stir the market again? I still remember the sharp decline in April last year, when many top traders got wiped out, and we managed to survive. Speaking of which, the stock MSTR left a deep impression—now this guy has become a plaything for institutions.

Let's review this operation: I started heavily accumulating in June 2022, with a cost basis of just $20. By spring last year, around March 25, I made a significant reduction in my position, and by April 3, I had fully shorted the account. A few days later, on April 8, I turned around and bought back at $240. This back-and-forth trading continued until December 31, when I finally closed the position, by which time the price had fallen to $152.

This tactical approach looks risky, but each step had its logic. From 20 to 240 and then down to 152, the timing and cost control truly tested one’s psychology. The key is to understand the movements of institutions; their signals to reduce positions often precede market reactions. When Wall Street winds up, some run, some buy the dip—missing the right rhythm can make all the difference.
