Once thought that trading was a shortcut to wealth, I later realized that it is more like a long game with oneself. Here, there are no eternal winners, only constantly evolving practitioners.

Over the years, the market has taught me not only techniques but also a profound understanding of human nature, risk, and discipline. From blindly following trends to building a system, from emotional trading to mechanical execution, every step is accompanied by pain and growth.

What I want to share is not a "foolproof secret," but the true insights of a lonely trader.

"The market has always been fair; it does not punish mistakes, but it will continually repeat lessons until you learn."

[There is no 'Holy Grail' in trading, and no 'secret' in the market]

You may think the methods to make money are hidden in some book, but in fact, everything is laid out in plain sight: market trends, support and resistance, capital management, personal execution—trading is simply about repeatedly doing these basic things to perfection.

[Managing the present is better than predicting the future.]

Those who guess daily market fluctuations often end up either blowing their accounts or getting slapped in the face. Trading is not about prediction, but execution. You may not know if the next trade will profit or lose, but you know where the odds lie after consistently following the rules over the long term.

[Let profits run, let losses stop.]

Everyone entering the market wants to "make steady profits," but the truth is, you must accept losses to truly make money. Losses are not frightening; it is enduring losses that is scary; profits do not come from frequent trading but from one right trade that captures sufficient profit.

The closer you get to the market, the easier it is to be consumed by it.

Constantly staring at the market, frequently trading, and trying to catch every fluctuation will only make you increasingly anxious and out of control. Those who truly make money understand the importance of keeping a distance from the market; they learn to wait to earn their share of the market movements.

[True masters are "bored and can endure solitude and loneliness." ]

Trading has never been an exciting affair; the more stable the profits, the more tedious trading becomes. The rules remain unchanged, execution is orderly, unaffected by market emotions, neither ecstatic due to profits nor collapsing due to losses—they are simply disciplined executors.

[Trading is a marathon; living long is more important than running fast.]
