Two Stages of Trading

First Stage: Seeking Techniques

This is the starting point for all traders.

Seeing trading strategies, patterns, and ideas, one feels a longing and rushes towards them.

Diligently learning trading skills, studying candlestick patterns, technical indicators, and so-called cyclical emotions.

Attempting to find patterns or strategies that one can master.

Second Stage: Logical System

Logic > Technique, when technical knowledge accumulates to a certain level, new bottlenecks in trading will appear.

At this point, what one seeks is no longer techniques, but rather to remain calm, eliminate subjectivity, maintain an objective attitude, and seize opportunities with a rational perspective.

After trading, one does not feel joy or sorrow based on profits and losses, but rather treats the outcome as feedback, assessing whether the profits and losses align with one’s trading principles.

The focus shifts from seeking so-called certainty to accepting the uncertainty of the market.
