What is really wrong behind the account's performance?
Why do some people make money every day while you always find yourself in losses?
To put it simply, there are two points:
1. They have a clear trading process.
Those who truly make money go through the following process for every trade:
Assessing market nature: Range? Trend? Fake bullish? Fake bearish?
Using higher timeframe + market depth + on-chain data to determine the current market environment, not relying on gut feeling.
Position structure: Light position to test the waters → Confirm increase in position → Large position to profit.
Never go all in at once; first, use a small position to explore. If wrong, cut losses; if right, then scale in with the trend.
Setting stop-loss and take-profit: Decide beforehand how much you can afford to lose or gain.
Do not change your mind at the moment of trading, do not rely on 'feelings' for stop-loss, and maintain strict point discipline.
Execution: Cut losses when wrong, do not hold onto losing positions, do not double down on losses, do not fantasize about reversals.
Those who correctly understand the market do so not by intuition, but by execution.
Review: Look back at today’s trades every day—where did you go wrong? Was the rhythm correct? Were the entry and exit points correct?
2. What is your trading process every day?
Most retail traders:
Make trades randomly.
Add to positions based on gut feeling.
Hold onto losing positions stubbornly.
Change direction three times a day.
Don’t take profits when winning, and don’t cut losses when losing.
Seek help from teachers when facing liquidation, switch to another one and continue.
To put it bluntly, your problem is not technical; it is the complete absence of a concept of 'process' and 'rhythm'.
3. The simplest way to improve: Follow the steps below.
Before making trades each day, first answer yourself three questions:
Is today a range market or a trend market?
What is the maximum loss I can accept for a single trade today? (Set your stop-loss)
At what price level should I consider opening a position after a breakout/breakdown?
4. Lastly, let me say something harsh:
The market isn't lacking, opportunities aren't lacking; the only thing lacking is your inability to learn execution, learn stop-loss, and learn from mistakes.
Your account won't deceive you; profit is the only standard to measure your understanding. Want to completely change the bad habits of retail traders? I have a complete execution table + risk control template + intraday rhythm chart ready,
