Isn't this a true reflection of your trading experience right now???

In trading, it's not about who trades the most, but rather those who seem to be doing less, quietly making money while their accounts grow steadily, with drawdowns well within control. They all share a common trait: "slow is fast." However, very few truly understand the deeper meaning of this and execute it to perfection.

This is why 9 out of 10 people in the trading market are losing. Let me elaborate on what this statement really means.

First, being slow is about establishing a rhythm, not missing opportunities. Most people, when they first start trading, always want to earn more, fearing they might miss out on market movements, desperately trying to catch every fluctuation, without a clear direction, unclear positions, and without established patterns. They fabricate their entry criteria, only to end up losing as soon as they enter. When they lose, they stubbornly hold on, and after a while, they can't take it anymore and cut their losses. Just after they exit, the price shoots up, and then they slap their thighs, thinking if they had held on, they would have turned a profit.

Then their mindset collapses, and they continue to search for signals everywhere, only to trip over the same stone repeatedly until they face a margin call. When the real market movement finally comes, they might analyze it correctly, but their bullets are long gone, and they can only watch the market with tears in their eyes.

Those who can truly make money consistently over the long term are not high-frequency traders; they make very few trades. It's not because they don't trade, but because they only engage in those with the highest probability of success. They reserve their bullets for signals that they can instantly recognize and know what to do.

These are the opportunities that have been validated countless times through a systematic approach, deeply ingrained in their minds. So, is the secret to successful trading difficult? It really isn't some complex technical model or some mysterious trading technique.

Six words are enough to summarize it: signals not real, no fantasies, no impatience, no complaints. When the last three signals appear, don’t be greedy, don’t be proud, don’t be arrogant.

When the market gives opportunities, enter without hesitation; if it doesn’t, wait. Don’t stare at the market all day and do nothing. After entering, take what the market gives you. Many people cannot hold onto profitable trades, or they do hold on but end up losing after being in profit, simply because they don’t know when to take their gains.
