The market rises from 85,000 to 102,000, and those who missed out become increasingly anxious; more and more short-term traders are losing money.
Everyone is looking for 'strategies', but no one wants to admit that the real problem is actually you.
Come on, let's be clear:
First, the mindset of the missed opportunity is the script of the manipulators
85,000: This is just a rebound; technically, there's still a big drop ahead
90,000: It hasn't broken the new high, no rush, there will be a pullback
95,000: Should we try shorting?
102,000: This can't really be reversing, right? Let's wait and see
110,000: Can't take it anymore, going all in!
→ Then the market starts to pull back, and you become the bag holder
The market's only task is to make most people get off at the most painful moment and get on at the most exhilarating time.
Second, short-term losses are not due to technique but due to distorted expectations
You buy in hopes of catching the rally
At a glance, it doesn't rise, and you start to panic
Stop loss, and just as I stop, the market rallies
After a few operations, the money is gone, but the market hits a new high
This is the typical path of the 'cut loss cycle': afraid of missing out when it rises, afraid of liquidation when it falls, chasing on the rise, cutting on the fall, back and forth until exiting
Three major illusions of trading contracts:
After shorting and stopping loss, it rebounds, and going long leads to a plunge
Chasing fakes at a hundredfold, just entering and it gets cut in half
Spot market misses out, impulsive contract averaging down, and it explodes right upon entry
It's not that contracts don't work for you; it's that you always think 'I can still salvage it.'
Fourth, real wealth is not built through frequent trading
Almost all quality assets have four phases in the market:
Consolidation—takeoff—building a peak—decline
And the ones who really make big money are those who seize that brief 5% window during the takeoff phase
Having missed this window, what remains is the relentless and painful fluctuations.
Fifth, the mindset that earns the most money is 'not seeking perfection, just avoiding the outrageous'
Buying at the lowest, selling at the highest, this is not investment, it's a fantasy
Success is not about seizing every opportunity but about making fewer fatal mistakes
Those who really make big money are mostly not the ones trading every day, but those who dare to quietly buy when no one is paying attention
The last sentence:
It's not that you don't understand the technique
You are unwilling to let go of the obsession with buying at the lowest and selling at the highest
What you lose is not the market but human nature
Simplify the strategy, mechanize execution, clear your emotions
Real wealth is hidden in this boring yet steadfast persistence
