This Time Is Different

"This Time Is Different" was a common theme near the end of the last run in May 2021, (November 2021 notwithstanding). It wasn't Different. Cycles, by definition, never are.

What IS different is your reaction to the cycle. My journey started in Jan 2021 (pre-fomo, fomo). By February, a lot of us thought, "why didn't I learn about this in October 2020??". Regardless, there were lots of learnings, tied to LOTS of terms: 'Don't catch falling knives', 'Pump and dump', 'Wyckoff', 'hodl', etc. The one that really stuck (for me), is 'Time in the market, beats timing the market'.

I started accumulating small bags throughput the bear market 'Be greedy when others are fearful" and feel well exposed thing into the next bull run.

What I'll do differently this run is not chasing FOMO and sticking to my plan. What do you plan to do differently when the next bull run heats up?
