I acknowledge it was mostly luck. That being said, there is a small element common sense to the decision I think. We’ve been on a historically long and strong bull run, and in terms of market cycles we should be in a bear. I actually thought it would come late 2019, but everything in January seemed so insanely good to me I couldn’t see things getting much better, so I pulled the trigger early thinking I would miss out on some more gains but miss the big drop, which I was okay with. If things keep going as they have since then I may have pulled out the day before the peak actually.

Also, I could still be totally wrong and there could be a huge rebound and a moon. Who the fuck knows. I think I was right, but still, I know things can change overnight.

Next steps are to buy back in when it appears to be a worse case scenario, and never do it again. I’ve gotten luckily and doubled up in Vegas before and walked away. I won’t try it again.
