The Axe Shadow and the Transformation of Trading Mindset

In the ancient fables, there is a story that deeply reveals the subtlety of human mind and cognitive bias. The story tells of a villager who made a living by chopping wood. One day, he accidentally lost his axe. In the process of searching, he had an inexplicable suspicion in his heart. Looking at everyone in the village, he seemed to have become the one who stole the axe. This unwarranted "thought" enveloped his heart. However, a few days later, when he found the axe in the mountains, he looked at the villagers again. They all returned to their former kindness and innocence, and the previous doubts disappeared in an instant.

In the world of trading, this kind of "thought" is also common, especially for novices who are new to the market. Once a position is entered, the slightest movement in the market, every piece of news, and every price fluctuation may be infinitely magnified, as if every moment is foreshadowing the turn of the market, and the inner drama is more magnificent than the fluctuation of the market. Especially when the position is heavy, this kind of psychological pressure makes people sleepless at night. The inner turmoil is like a shackle, which constrains the judgment and decision-making of traders.

From a novice to a mature trader, a spiritual transformation quietly occurs. The most critical step is to learn to lower expectations. When the desire for profit is no longer so urgent, the weight of the position will naturally become reasonable, the inner fluctuations will also slow down, and the "thought" that once troubled will gradually fade. As the old saying goes: "Let go of one thought, and the world will be wide." This is not only a profound insight into trading psychology, but also a necessary path to trading freedom and success.

But it is worth noting that the improvement of trading psychology does not exist in isolation. It is like driving skills to driving safety. The two complement each other and are indispensable. Without solid trading skills as support, no matter how good the psychological quality is, it is difficult to gain a foothold in the complex and changing market. Therefore, for traders, constantly improving their trading ability and paying attention to psychological cultivation can move forward steadily in the storms of the market and finally reach the other side of success.
