Whatever anyone does... My own advice is to plan what you will do separately and well in advance of market behavior and news.
So if you want to sell when things "look like they will get bad" and buy when they "look good again" define bad and good, define what you will do and then execute.
Otherwise you won't be able to distinguish planning from emotional reaction... Your brain is great at making an emotional reaction SEEM like a great plan .
And then consider this... If the market is 10% off it's peak... And whatever plan someone has didn't sell AT the peak and that plan doesn't say to get back in now... At least partially... It sounds like the plan is more likely to sell low and buy high
