Whether it can be executed with accurate quantification over a long period. For example, the turtle trading rule has been a publicly available trading system for many years, but very few people have been able to make money from it so far. Why is that? It is because of the lack of understanding of the drawdown periods of the trading system, a misunderstanding of trading, and inadequate control of psychological rhythms during the trading process.

Position management is chaotic; many friends mistakenly believe that having a good system is enough to make money. In fact, this is a grave misunderstanding. I personally believe that trading skills or trading strategies account for less than 10% of the trading process. The focus is on controlling positions during execution and maintaining the psychological costs of trading.

Some people are overly calculative; they cannot tolerate a loss even once and stop trading. After observing for a while, they feel the system is decent and enter again, only to encounter another drawdown period and stop trading again. They lose exactly what they should have lost and exit when they should have gained.
Is this a matter of luck or personal psychological issues? Regardless of the method used, those who can achieve long-term stable profits in the market are individuals with simple thoughts, open personalities, focused minds, and calm demeanors.
Too smart people are not suited for trading.
