I agree, to a point.

There are many ways to make money on the market, dependent on one's needs and timeframes.

I have swing traded for twenty years and made enough to retire early.

My practice was to partially cash in short term wins and if the fundamentals were suitable, to let the essentially free shares ride long term.

Now that I'm getting up in years, I am less inclined to carry shares long term, so now I tend to cash in a higher percentage of the gains. (The Roths I use for trading make sense for this strategy.)

I think what I'm trying to say is that there is really no one-size-fits-all approach, and that we all should be accommodating to our ever-changing situations.
