I've been thinking of a metaphor: the market trend is like parachuting.

When you jump from a high altitude, opening the parachute creates tremendous resistance—the price often experiences a sharp rebound. The force of inertia lifts you instantly, making you feel an unbeatable buoyancy. But the problem is, gravity is always at work. No matter how fierce the rebound, you still have to land on the ground.

That's why many people chase the high during a rebound, only to end up back at the starting point, or even lower. The market's rebound is a temporary correction, but the long-term trend momentum (that is, the gravitational pull) is the decisive factor. Those who recognize this pattern can survive longer amid volatility.
