I sorta was this was, but COVID wrecked my gains because I failed to exit. This time I swore to myself I wouldn't let it happen again.
IDK what you mean, I held through COVID and it's been way up since then. Even if you bought the S&P 500 at the peak of February, right before it hit, you would have been back in the green within a year.
It appears that gravity has already taken over and softened this impact, too:

Again, I never said I've done poorly since COVID.
I've just managed to turn the current instability into profits. Ive done better this month, as I have set aggressive positions against the market in preparation.
When I mentioned COVID, I was mentioning, you know, the biggest drop in the market since the current one.
