Once, my trading interface was incredibly busy, with 8 technical indicators densely packed, 5 financial pop-ups constantly appearing, and messages from 3 trading instructors bombarding me in turns, but in the end, it resulted in continuous losses. Now, my screen is refreshingly clean, retaining only 1 gray moving average, 2 key price levels, and a 3% stop-loss red line. It was only after I resolutely abandoned 90% of the trading routines that I finally understood the 5 survival rules of 'less is more.'
Rule 1: Focus on a single track, refuse to be greedy. In my novice period, I was like a spinning top, chasing different varieties and cycles of the market day and night, operating on rebar and Shanghai gold in turns, resulting in a 24-hour nonstop money-losing machine. It was only later that I suddenly realized that I should only choose the top three star varieties by trading volume, focus on one market pattern (either trend or oscillation), and lock in a fixed cycle (daily or 4-hour), to strike precisely and improve my winning rate.
Rule 2: Turn trading into mechanical execution. In the past, I was tightly wrapped in a sea of information, constantly monitoring various data and indicators, feeling anxious and exhausted. Now, I have completely transformed into an 'automated trader': I spend 30 minutes each day at market open to assess the direction, place my orders, and then close the software. In the evening, I only check the discipline execution situation. As Charlie Munger said, patiently waiting for the 'sweet spot' is far wiser than blindly swinging.
Rule 3: Simplify tools, return to the essence. I decisively said goodbye to complex tools like wave theory and quantitative models, using only the 20-day moving average to judge trends, referencing yesterday's highs and lows for positioning, and strictly adhering to a 3% mechanical stop-loss. Surprisingly, this simple method tested with Excel is even more effective than 80% of intelligent algorithms.
Rule 4: Focus on practical skills. No longer indulging in seemingly profound things like geopolitical analysis and data forecasting courses, I instead concentrate on honing practical skills such as 'stop-loss execution', 'profit determination', and 'adjusting the mindset after consecutive losses'. The core of trading has never been those profound theories, but rather executing common sense without fail.
Rule 5: Acknowledge your limitations. Learn to calmly miss out on market opportunities and bravely say 'no' to 80% of incomprehensible fluctuations. Just like the wabi-sabi aesthetic of Kyoto's ancient temples, simplicity is beauty. When trading returns to its essence, I finally hear the rhythm of capital flow clearly. Now, my desktop wallpaper says: 'Futures are not the Olympics; simple repetition can lead to victory.' Those who once mocked my singular trading model are still lost in the complicated K-line maze, while I have already steadily advanced towards a million in profit with these minimalist trading rules.
