When this fan first came to me, his situation was terrible:
He had been losing for three consecutive months, everything he did went wrong, buying high and selling low, the more he added, the more he lost, and his account was leaking like a sieve.
He wasn't unmotivated; he watched the market every day and listened to various "big names" giving signals, but the result was—everything became more chaotic, and his mindset completely collapsed.
I looked at his trading records, and in one sentence: the rhythm was all wrong.
It wasn't that the market was bad; it was that his rhythm was completely out of sync with the market.
When the market took a break, he got excited; when it started moving, he panicked, relying entirely on guessing, making all emotional trades.
I told him to reduce the trading frequency, avoid high volatility times, and focus on those few trades where he should act. When he shouldn't be trading, staying in cash was a victory.
He was half-convinced and followed my rhythm a few times; after a week, his account didn't lose but made a small profit of a few hundred U.
He said: It turns out it wasn't that I didn't know how to trade; it was that no one taught me how to align my rhythm.
Later, over two months, we didn't have many trades, but they were basically stable; the little bit he lost before was slowly made back.
In fact, many people are the same; losing money isn't because they can't read the market, but because they don't know when to act and when to wait.
Trading isn't a game of diligence; it's a game of rhythm.
Once the rhythm is off, no matter how good the opportunity, you won't be able to seize it.
How to change this behind the scenes?
It's hard to explain; anyway, he still comes to ask me every week where the rhythm points are.
Those who truly want to move forward actually know how to find the door.
