In recent years of trading, to be honest, it has really worn me down.
At the beginning, I didn't understand anything, just followed others. Tomorrow I would look at an indicator, make some profit and feel on top of the world, but when I lost, I was completely bewildered.
Later, I began to self-study techniques, read books, analyze markets, and research various models. The more I learned, the worse I performed—my account got smaller, and I became more exhausted.
Until one time, after three consecutive days of liquidation, I sat in front of my computer, staring at the nearly empty asset chart, suddenly feeling a bit clearer.
The core of making money actually boils down to one thing—
It's not about technology, not about news, not about how smart your cognition is, but whether you can "consistently do one right thing" and not be disturbed by emotions.
You might not believe it, but my current trading system is very simple.
Just three sentences, two conditions, too lazy to even draw a chart, the logic is crystal clear.
But because I only trade one type of market, only one direction, and only follow one rhythm to take action, I started to make money steadily.
This system is not complicated or mysterious, but no one will teach you this at the beginning. You need to lose money, hit walls, and reflect on your own.
Looking back at these years now, I really wish I had met someone who could explain this logic to me clearly earlier, at least I could have lost a few less thousand dollars and avoided two or three years of detours.
Stop blindly working hard; if the direction is wrong, then no amount of effort is in vain.
