Here's your translator from trader-speak to actual English.
"I have strong conviction" = my position size exceeds my understanding by 10x
"It's just a pullback" = I ignored 7 red flags and now I'm coping
"I'm staying disciplined" = I'm too stubborn to cut a loser
"The smart money is accumulating" = I saw one whale wallet move and built an entire narrative
"I'm managing risk" = I moved my stop-loss three times and it's now my new cost basis
"I see asymmetric upside" = I already entered and now I'm convincing myself
"The resolution criteria are unclear" = I lost but technically
"I'm doing more research" = I know the answer I just don't like it
"This is a high conviction play" = I sized too big
"The market will correct" = please please please
