Pulling out the trading account data from the past year, I suddenly have a feeling of loss and disorientation.
Carefully examining those trading records, the traces of late nights are everywhere. From the beginning to the end of the year, repeated position adjustments and waiting repeatedly, it’s like engaging in a psychological battle with the market that has no smoke.
Every trade is a decision, every rebalancing is a test of the market’s next move. Sometimes I guess the market’s pulse correctly, sometimes I am caught off guard. But it is these ups and downs that gradually help me understand what a real market is.
Looking back, all the twists and turns are paving the way for the stories ahead. The year 2025 has already come to an end, and those experiences and lessons have settled into the account. 2026 is still waiting ahead, with new opportunities and challenges brewing.
Looking at the account data is exhausting, feels like a roller coaster
2025 drove me crazy, 2026 I need to learn to let go of myself
After a year of psychological battles, the biggest gain is recognizing my own inner demons
The account review is a bit heart-wrenching, I want to punch myself for those rebalancing decisions now
The number of times I guessed the market pulse correctly is few, mostly lessons learned from market lessons
Accumulating experience sounds impressive, but it’s actually lessons learned from losses
Honestly, when I looked at the account data, I felt like a gambler reviewing their bets.
So what if 2026 is here? It’s still being tossed around by the unpredictable market.
All the account’s gains are tears, haha.
Guess the market correctly a few times and think you’re a master, but the next second you get slapped in the face. That’s just how the market is.
After all the chaos this year, where’s the net profit?
Psychological warfare has worn me out now.
Too many times caught off guard, this is my 2025.
Accumulating experience? Sometimes it feels like more regret is being accumulated.
Keep gambling next year, anyway, I've come this far.
A year's worth of trading records are suffocating to look at. When will I be able to achieve stable profits?
Every time I adjust my positions, it feels like gambling on luck. I can't even smile.
Guess the market right a few times, so what? Still got repeatedly harvested, this is what the market has taught me
Winding roads ahead? Nice words, but in reality, it's just losing and earning, earning and losing
Bring on 2026, anyway, I'm already numb
