Today I spent over 20 minutes quickly brushing $TIMI, completing 130,000 transactions with a loss of 8.7U. It sounds like a loss, but there's actually a strategy behind it.

I trade full-time, and today I happened to have two volume tasks to complete within an hour, so I could only choose quick brushing. This highlights the difference between quick brushing and precise brushing—one consumes time, the other consumes loss. Both approaches have their costs. Some treat trading as a part-time job, so they naturally plan carefully and take their time to do quality work. But for someone like me who is watching the market full-time, sometimes time is more valuable than money, and when it's time to act, I do.

Fortunately, a few trades in the early morning earned over 6 dollars, enough to offset the cost of quick brushing. So today’s operation was actually break-even. The key is to understand your trading rhythm and cost structure, and not follow the crowd blindly. Keep it up, everyone.

I get the logic of this quick trading, it's just using money to buy time. However, hedging with 8.7U is still a bit risky; the move in the early morning needs to be stable.

8.7U exchange time, this is how full-time play is done

Rapid brushing is really out of necessity; only under time pressure would I do this. But whether exchanging 8.7U for time value is worth it depends on individual rhythm. The intensive brushing group and the rapid brushing group are basically living in two different worlds; don't force a comparison. You made back the earnings in the early morning, which is equivalent to free time cost, and that's good luck. The key is to understand your own cost structure; blindly following trends is really not advisable. A trading volume of 130,000 has broken even, which is much better than losing money.
