Lost a lot? Don't rush to exit, try changing your strategy first.
Most people who lose money in trading aren't unable to read charts, but rather unable to execute.
Clearly knowing you should set a stop-loss, yet always thinking about holding on a bit longer;
Clearly seeing the market weakening, yet stubbornly holding on;
Clearly just said you wanted to stay calm, but immediately get anxious at a market shake.
Ultimately, it's not that your skills are lacking, but your mindset is too erratic.
If you want to turn things around, you don't need to rely on luck or a single profitable trade. First, practice maintaining your rhythm, then talk about profits.
I often break trading into three steps:
🔹 Step One: Test with a light position
When the market is unclear, start with a small position to observe, without gambling, panicking, or overtrading. Set stop-losses, and let profits come along.
🔹 Step Two: Trend addition
Once the structure stabilizes, add to your position, it's better to get in slowly than to rush in aggressively.
🔹 Step Three: Profit protection
When you are making money on a trade, it's not because you're so skilled, but because you have controlled the greed of wanting to “take one more bite.” If you can exit, don’t look back.
Those who truly turn things around are not exceptionally gifted, but have changed the following habits:
Betting heavily when wanting to win, blowing up accounts at the first shake;
Not reviewing charts, blaming all losses on the market;
Running away after making a little profit, stubbornly holding on after a small loss;
Trading while emotionally unstable and still wanting to turn things around after losing.
You don't need to double your earnings in a day; as long as you lose a little less and earn a little more on each trade, you can gradually recover.
Stop chasing so-called “best signals” or “guaranteed strategies”; what truly ensures your safety through the market is a system, discipline, and execution. If you want to make big money, first don’t think about making money.
First, think about how to stabilize yourself:
Stabilize your position, stabilize your emotions, stabilize your actions.
Having a correct strategy is the only way to truly profit in this market, and having a team behind you is far better than working solo. Want to turn things around? Then reach out to me!
