Indeed! In psychology we call this "confirmation bias" or "positive hypothesis testing": we prefer to tell ourselves that we're right and mostly take evidence for that into account, leaving aside the "misses". Even psychologists are not immune to this.

I didn't listen to you and missed the chance to buy great stocks half price 6 months ago. What's the best strategy now: Wait for another opportunity or accept the high prices? I have no gut feeling on this.

Gut instincts r b.s. basically. Maybe just side w probabilities based on some sort of analysis based on somethin useful w some predictive value. One thing I do is... when things seem bad and everyone is crying i maybe invest a lil more. But on the other hand, I am machinelike w my 401K and index fund investing. Be robotic but pepper in some fun on the side based on stuff u think u know better than others.

A variation of confirmation bias.
