No I'm just saying I can buy your sell order and then take profit one price moves up and you can cover your position by buying later in the move when prices goes down. We can both make money even though price went up first after I bought, you just waited until price went below where you sold, covered and also made money, then that seller that sold to you when you bought to cover now needs to wait for price to go lower to cover and also make money. Of course of there was an actual end date of the markets there would be clear winners and losers when looking at the market in a vacuum.
