In the trading market, being trapped is a common situation. However, this is not an irreparable predicament. The following four strategies can help investors resolve the trapped situation and regain control over their trading direction.



1. Decisive Stop Loss
When the market suddenly reverses, causing significant losses on positions bought at high prices, decisively cutting losses is a wise choice. Recognizing mistakes in a timely manner and letting go of losses can preserve capital strength, preparing for future market opportunities.

2. Hedging Trade
In the face of being deeply trapped and difficult to cut losses, especially when the market trend continues to deteriorate, one can consider opening a reverse position for hedging. This strategy can alleviate loss pressure to a certain extent and provide more room for subsequent operations. However, it is important to note that this is a high-risk strategy and should be used with caution.

3. Day Trading
In a volatile market, day trading around existing positions may be an option. By engaging in short-term operations of selling high and buying low, investors can gradually reduce their holding costs. However, this requires investors to have sufficient time, energy, and expertise, and not everyone is suited for this attempt.

4. Timing to Increase Holdings
When the market may be approaching the bottom, and the index is oscillating or consolidating at a low level, moderately increasing positions may be an option. However, this requires investors to have a deep understanding of the market and to decide on the scale of increasing positions based on their own financial strength. Remember not to blindly add positions to quickly get out of a Tied Up situation, so as not to fall into a deeper loss trap.

In summary, it is crucial to remain calm and rational when facing a trapped situation. Every strategy has its applicable scenarios and potential risks, and investors need to prudently choose based on their own circumstances and the market environment. At the same time, continuous learning and accumulation of experience to improve risk management capabilities are key to establishing a foothold in the market in the long term.
