When markets crash, the hard part usually isn’t the chart work. It’s keeping your emotions under control. Most traders have a system, a plan, clear rules. But when your P&L swings tens of thousands in a day, all of that gets stress‑tested. Fear, anxiety, regret, anger – these emotions can destroy more than the sell‑off itself. Over the past decade, I’ve traded through multiple crashes, panics, collapses and violent corrections. What I’ve learned is this: Your long‑term results are not decided by how well you predict the market, but by whether you can stay rational when the market is at its messiest. In this post I’m sharing four mindset and strategy shifts I consider most critical. I hope they help you make better decisions the next time the market tanks. 📎What’s the mistake you’re most likely to make in a big sell‑off? 💬Tell me in the comments 🆕 Champion’s trading method — now on IG too. 👉 Follow us: IG@jlawstock2

How did I handle the recent pullback in U.S. stocks? Did I sell the top? 🙅🏻♂️ No. Did I hedge perfectly before the market turned? 🙅🏻♂️ No. Did I rush to short the market? 🙅🏻♂️ No. In my June 7 JLA Weekly Reports, right after the market had pulled back sharply, I wrote: “This pullback looks more like mean reversion after a strong advance, rather than a confirmed major top, crash, or bear market.” Not because I had a crystal ball 🔮 But because the evidence at the time did not support a broad market breakdown. $QQQ had pulled back hard. Semiconductors and AI hardware names were under pressure. Many extended stocks saw sharp profit-taking. But the bigger picture was still intact. $RSP was not collapsing. Market breadth had not broken down aggressively. The Net High / Low Ratio was still holding up. The QQQ weekly chart still looked like a normal pullback after a strong advance. So my base case was clear: This was more likely a reset than the start of a crash. 🔄 A few days later, the market found a low after a 6-day pullback and repaired most of the damage, moving back close to new highs. But the real lesson is not “I was right.” The real lesson is this: When the market pulls back sharply, you need a framework to separate a normal reset from a true character change. That is also why I did not rush to short the market. Shorting a pullback inside a strong uptrend is extremely difficult. When your focus is on the short side, you can easily miss the bigger opportunity: Preparing for the next group of leaders. Even worse, you may lose your winning positions during the process — and when the market recovers, you are forced to buy them back at higher prices. Most traders never do. Because human nature makes it very difficult to sell low and buy back higher. Your mind says: “I’ll wait for another pullback.” Your ego says: “I don’t want to chase.” And your finger simply cannot press the buy button. That is how traders lose their best positions and miss the next group of leaders. 🎯 In strong markets, sharp pullbacks are not always bearish. Sometimes they are necessary. They shake out weak hands, reset sentiment, and reveal where institutional demand still exists. That is why, after a market reset, I focus on the stocks that repair first. Those are often the names with real relative strength — and the ones most likely to lead the next move higher. This is exactly the process I share inside JLA (JLawStock Academy) : 💡How to read the market in real time. 💡How to define the most likely scenario. 💡How to know what would confirm or invalidate it. 💡How to identify real leadership after a reset. 💡How to spot the opportunity before it becomes obvious. The goal is not to be perfect. The goal is to think clearly when the market becomes noisy. 🧠 That is what separates a real trading process from hindsight commentary. And that is what I want JLA members to learn: Not just what I think about the market — but how to think through the market. If you want to learn more about JLA, visit:

“Are we entering a bear market?" — it feels like the right question to gauge the market. But it's not. The moment you ask it, your thinking gets boxed in. Real investors don't look for a verdict. They think in probabilities, read the narrative, follow the logic — and find the opportunities everyone else misses. That's where alpha is made 🚀 🆕 Champion’s trading method — now on IG too. 👉 Follow us: IG@jlawstock2

After joining the US Investing Championship again this year, a lot of people asked me: “How did you pull off a triple-digit return in the first half of 2025, when the market was crashing?” Here’s the story: In March, I was shorting actively because there were just too many clean short setups popping up. Then in early April, the Nasdaq touched its 200-week moving average. That’s strong support. I closed all my shorts and flipped long, focusing only on the strongest leaders outperforming the market. April and May were all about building long exposure. I stayed 100% on the long side until recently, when I went back to a long-short approach. My trading methods aren’t secret. You can learn most of them from books or YouTube. But if there’s one thing I take seriously, it’s this: Trade what you see, not what you think. One of my teammates, Oasis, turned this whole experience into a song. Her boyfriend, a very talented musician, made it into a real track. Our team then spent over a month producing a full MV. This song pretty much sums up my first-half journey in 2025. Hope you enjoy it 👇 🎵 This music was created by Marcel Du Chimp: #USIC2025 #USInvestingChampionship

Tried an AI tool to turn my Chinese into English… surprisingly good! This came from my live Q&A session.
