The essence of trading is a game of human nature $ETH
What you think trading is: staring at the market, making trading decisions through various technical indicators and trading methods, competing with the market.
What trading actually is: it's about doing something while continuously engaging in a game with oneself. We need to overcome our own greed, conquer fear, manage winning and protecting losses, and avoid chasing highs and panic selling.
All of this is actually unrelated to the market and is all about oneself. So rather than saying that trading is a competition in the market, it's more accurate to say that during the trading process, we are constantly competing with our own human nature. Trading goes against human nature.
Like athletes, a healthy body, stable emotions, a rock-solid mindset, and strict trading discipline are essential qualities for an excellent trader. Of course, the most important factors are still the era, industry dividends, and luck.
A complete successful trading cycle consists of: 70% mindset + 20% luck + 10% trading skills. You need to use your 70% mindset to catch the wave of the cycle, with 20% luck and 10% trading skills to expand your profits during the caught cycle.
