Discipline is very important in short selling positions. Yesterday, I opened a silver trade, but now that I’ve returned to entry levels, I am closing the position. The reason is simple—if the trend is going against you, you shouldn’t get too attached to the trade. If it’s unsuccessful, it’s more sensible to consider it a failure and wait for the next opportunity. Otherwise, emotional decisions become unavoidable. The crude oil short is currently active and yielding around 1.5% profit. The 62.86 level is a strong support zone—I'm considering taking profit around this area. To keep market risk under control, sometimes exiting a position early is part of a successful strategy.

Honestly, shorting is all about testing your mentality; it's the biggest test when cutting losses.

I've experienced it all, and short-term bears fear nothing more than holding on to a losing position. Take profits when the time is right—that's the art of staying alive.

I need to learn this mindset. Those who don't stubbornly hold onto their positions indeed live longer. Not even a 1.5% fee deters them; earning steadily is much more reliable than dreaming of getting rich overnight.

Early bird discounts are not shameful; this is the art of living. Once the silver is cut, it's cut; move on to the next order.

Stop-loss is truly an art, not a science. Sell when silver prices rebound; this move is flawless.
