In a bull trap market, shorting is the most efficient choice



A market takes a week to gather strength during an upward trend, while a decline can be realized in just a few minutes. This is the core rule of market volatility. Going long seems straightforward, but it requires enduring oscillations and shakeouts, with profits relying on time accumulation; shorting directly targets the trend's essence, quickly profiting from emotional downturns, and better fits the "fast drop" characteristic.

Master Zhang's key point directly hits the core: "When the market stalls and struggles to break through, choose to short." In a bull trap market, the main force lifts prices to create momentum but lacks fundamental support. The seemingly strong rise is actually a trap—signals include the Bollinger Bands bending downward, rebound at the upper band, and rapid pullback after volume decreases. Shorting at this point requires no long wait and can avoid high-position trapping risks.

The advantage of shorting lies in precisely timing emotional turning points, achieving quick profits through "sell high, buy low." Especially in bull trap scams, its efficiency far surpasses passive waiting to go long. Following the trend and shorting at signs of bull traps is the core logic to seize the market's quick decline benefits.
