Being cut isn't due to greed, but because you don't have your own trading system
Most people say after losing money: "I was too greedy." But greed is not the original sin; the real problem is that you don't have a trading system of your own.
You are not cut because you are too greedy, but because you have no idea when to enter or exit, relying solely on emotions, KOLs, trends, and news to drift along. Every time you buy or sell, there is no clear logic or standard behind it, just a feeling of "it seems okay," and thus you become a buoy of market sentiment, drifting wherever it's hot.
Without a system, it’s like a blind person walking at night; after one bump, you say you are "too greedy"; after two bumps, you say "bad luck"; and after three bumps, you start to accept your fate.
But in reality, systematic trading is the only long-term survival path. **You don’t need particularly complicated strategies, even just:
Having a clear entry logic (theme, structure, cycle)
Having a clear stop-loss mechanism (breaking down trend or false validation)
Having a patiently executed plan (not swayed by emotional fluctuations)
Is enough to defeat 99% of those who chase highs and sell lows.
Being cut is not your fate, but that you weren't prepared to wield the knife.
Building a system is the starting point for you to transition from being a victim to being a leader.
