[SERIOUS] The satisfaction of playing the market both ways

I know that most of you advocate DCA, hodl, and similar strategies. Which aren't necessarily bad strategies and certainly easy ones as they require little effort and only requires you to wait for the market to run up in the long-term.

I also have a large part of my portfolio in spot positions to just stake and wait for the next bullrun ATHs. Nevertheless, I also try to feed on my action addiction on a more short-term by trading actively. Playing the market in the swings it has, keeps my craving for active trading and feeds the need to feel like doing everything I can to maximize my returns.

For me this translates into leverage trading long and short based on the time frames such as 4 hours or daily. While TA isn't perfect, it certainly helps timing short and longs by looking at RSI for example. Another part of thisyis taking profits aggressively and cutting losses aggressively too. It helps sustain a healthy return, that requires some work but brings satisfaction in both ways.

As we are now calming a bit after some overbought time periods, it soothes my portfolio's value shorting a bit here too. All in all I try to be actuveyon both sides of the market based in longterm and short-term indicators accordingly. Slow and steady returns hopefully wins the race for me.

How do you approach your investment strategy and do you need to satisfy your action need too?

It's about actively doing something, having fun, and learning to yield good returns for me mostly.
