"Complex strategies do not necessarily make money; the logic of deception must be simple."

"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication"—if taken out of context, this phrase is essentially misleading.

From the perspective of "reason," trading is indeed not complex. Buying low, selling high, going with the trend, setting stop-loss and take-profit, and having a risk-reward ratio greater than 1—these are all logical concepts that everyone understands and sound simple.

However, from the perspective of "execution," trading is extremely difficult. When it’s truly time to place an order, you feel fear; when it’s truly time to stop loss, you feel lucky; after a series of losses, you become afraid to enter the market.

You think what you lack is technique, but in reality, it’s your emotions, judgment, and consistency that are holding you back.

Therefore, trading is never about being "simple"; it’s about making complex things appear very simple.
