Hi, what you said was confusing.
You are bullish in the long term but you don't see a recovery in the near future? that contradicts your belief and what you are saying.
It's not confusing. Seems pretty simple to me actually. It just means that:
1) He thinks in the short term we will keep going lower
2) He thinks in the long term we will reach ATH
This is a very valid position. I don't see where the problem is. Just buy the dip if said dip happens, and buy already too, in case it doesn't happen and we start going higher from now on. Win/win scenario there.
