So far, with 18 years of trading,
I feel that playing mid to long term on better quality stocks are more beneficial than being in & out of stock . Otherwise, when even there is a mini bull , you will miss out the opportunity of the nice ride. Being in & out of stocks, can make cents out of it minus fees. But by staying longer term, can make tens of cents out of it. Juz my opinion.
Still, I feel there is a point that we have to decide a sell, or else, holding far too long without a direction can lead to loss or less profit.
Yup, once long enough in the market, one will realise the one the highly make real and big money is those long term good stocks.

In and out often mean more mistaken potential being made.
Simple statistic tell us, for goreng, we have 51% of lossing and 49% of winning, it should be 50:50, but everytime in and out transaction, (as after you bought, chance of going up and down is 50:50), you loss minimum of 1%, so 51:49.
The more you trade the winning chance is like, 0.49 x 0.49 x 0.49 x ......
Unless one can defy and odd of statistic which not many people can do it.
I am sure I am not the one.
That's why we need fundamental value to guide us in term of investing. Simple goreng short term is the market, the chance of win and loss can't run away the 51:49 ratio, unless you are the one manipulating the stocks, if not, anchovies chance surely is 51:49.
