I haven't been here for two months, returning to life, focusing on honing my inner skills. As for the market, it is currently brewing a big trend, there's not much to say. True experts are skilled at waiting for big opportunities. High-frequency trading demands a lot from traders; nearly all are dead when measured in years. Only those who engage in mid to long-term big waves can survive, which is a statistical probability after natural market battles. The hardest part for people is self-awareness. Most people overestimate themselves while being quite ordinary, all dreaming of becoming the chosen one one day. The truth is, even those who survive the myths of sudden wealth mostly just followed a big trend out of good luck, that's all. It doesn't matter how good your skills are or how good your mindset is; essentially, the market gives you an opportunity that you just happened to seize. It's not that magical. However, the vast majority of ordinary people pursue techniques while neglecting principles. The more you learn, the more cluttered you become; you become less effective. What's always holding you back isn't the technical indicators, but your mindset and execution ability. In fact, 99.99% of people know how to make money easily, but only 0.01% can actually do it well and achieve it. The fluctuations in the candlestick chart, to put it simply, reflect human nature's fluctuations—greed's fluctuations and fear's fluctuations, vividly portrayed through buying high and selling low. There are countless market trends, countless new and old players, countless trading methods, but human nature remains eternally unchanged.
The above seems to be nonsense, and it actually is nonsense. Let's talk about something practical. A trading system only needs a trading rule that suits your personality, then patiently wait for the signals to enter the market and exit (either through a trailing stop profit or a trailing stop loss, ultimately both are exits). If you make a profit, withdraw half; if you hit a stop loss, let it stop loss. This is a good thing, preventing large losses (a stop loss can't help you make a profit, but it can solve all problems, including floating losses, adding positions, resistance, hedging, and the vicious cycle of liquidation). Hold onto your spot assets; don't fidget unnecessarily. The more you fidget, the faster you lose. For contracts, keep low leverage and light positions, with stop losses and withdrawals. This way, you can survive longer and ultimately wait for the big opportunities and substantial profits. Let's not say more; this market is too volatile. In this circle, it's either scams or conflicts. The less you come and see, the closer you can get to the essence of trading and great wealth. Those destined will take it; see you at the end of the year.
