After trading for so long and achieving some results, I believe that what truly awakens traders is pain. The enlightenment in trading often does not arise from repeated profits but quietly takes root in the numbness and collapse after repeated account losses and margin calls. It is crushed time and again by the market, dragged into the abyss by human nature; this is the so-called inevitable path to enlightenment.
The numbers in the account keep shrinking, and the trading plans are shattered by the market. Staring blankly at the screen, testing the edge of collapse repeatedly in your heart, you will find that the once confident self, who believed they were a genius trader, is pressed down by the market, rubbed against the ground without mercy. This is the tribulation of traders, and it is not something everyone can endure.
If you grit your teeth and endure those darkest nights, and get through those most painful moments, slowly peeling away your obsessions and cutting off your illusions, no longer fixated on gains and losses, no longer entangled in success and failure, you will suddenly realize that you have changed. You will no longer fear losses because you understand that learning to cut losses is a necessary skill to become a mature trader. You will no longer be attached to volatility because you realize that stable profits are the state most worth pursuing in trading.
You have learned to let go of obsessions, see yourself clearly, and learn to respect the market. From this moment on, you can be considered to have truly embarked on the path of trading.
As long as the heart does not die, the path will not be born. Let's encourage each other!$BTC
