I totally have to really agree with you.
Sometimes we miss but they win by a big margin. Let us say a market crash is coming, one will only know that it could be our turn to win and they lose. Sometimes winning, sometimes losing, even could be not our turn yet. That is why there is a term called "rotational play".

The ability to control emotions very important in the market.
Me? I am almost like a kayu. LOL!
Nothing gets to me - it never bothers me if I see a stock jumps up few hundred percent.
Guess it helps that since I ....
1. understand if the stock is not in my wheelhouse, so be it.
I never bother if an ultra penny stock rises few hundred percent.
It's not my game.
2. Ah.... it goes back to paper trading (argh oh no!

)
During the period when I was paper trading...
it never bothers me...
if the stock I am paper trading went up fifty or hundred percent and that I have zero real money in it.
This is because I understand I am in the training period.
Whatever happens in the market, c'est la vie.
And also if the market is bullish and I am only paper trading, it's yet again c'est la vie for me.
I am not ready for the market.
I am training.
Que sera sera.
This is why I handle missed opportunities rather OK.
