I've experienced both before. I bought glove stock at the beginning of covid in 2020 and it dropped slightly so I sold it at loss. Then the glove sector strated to rally ten folds which I missed the boat. For me buying in downtrend is kinda worse. I bought bitcoin at a high price around $50000, when it dropped I was happily averaging down because the market was so optimistic with the bright future of crypto at that time, the current price is now $18000. Multiple crypto platform collapsed whereby I was trapped in one of them, it causes mental stress. I think buying in bear market is ok, just have to do analysis and confident that the fundamental of the company is still good and able to recover.
In my case it's Malaysia stocks. The one that couldn't be recovered is a warrant, I don't have the heart to cut loss at that time, thus I could only see the price getting lower anxiously and ultimately expired worthless [Spurting] Another stock is called Serbadk, which I bought at RM1.8 and cut loss at RM0.795 when there was a huge scandal about the top management releasing false statements about their quarterly results, the company is now on the verge of delisting. From these lessons, I'm now more cautious (traumatized) and buy companies that I'm familiar with

Of course I have greed as a human - when I loss money, I'll regret the purchases or missed selling opportunities ; Conversely, when I gain money, I'll regret not buy more during low points. There's no "only if" in the reality, I could only learn from failure experience and be grateful with my gain. I'm fortunate to have entered the US market while its low, if I could go back in time I'll definitely invest more in $Microsoft(MSFT)$
First of all, I'm really grateful of the active and informative community with users such as @PortfolioHu@Long_Equity@koolgal , I've learnt a lot of insights through the posts. [Heart] It's a good habit to rethink your day at night and appreciate things to make yourself filled with love. My family, friends, colleagues are all kind to me and in good health; I have proper job (although the salary is not much); my rental place is pretty good; I can eat whatever I like, overall an ordinary life is already something that we should be grateful for. [Heart]
Honestly, I'll utilize it on my needs before considering to do charity. First of all is to settle all my loans, keep part of the money in fixed deposits (low risk) and invest in stocks/mortgage (medium risk), and then fulfill my family's needs. I'll prefer to help out the community around me since I'm more familiar with their condition rather than strangers.
All of the above! [Heart] With Tiger broker, we can trade (A) US, HK, China, Singapore, Australia stocks; (B) options, warrants, CBBC; (C) US and Singapore ETF and REITs and (D) Indexes, metals, bonds, energy futures etc

I think it's no harm to believe in Feng Shui. In fact there's a certain degree of practicality in it, for instance don't point your bed toward the door, bathroom or mirror, people might really feel uneasy sleeping in that position even they aren't aware of fengshui principles
