January 16th, today I want to talk about trading.
In the afternoon, I placed a few more orders at the company, all of which were wrong. To put it simply, I was just feeling itchy. When the itch strikes, I have to trade, and trading means losing. Accepting the losses is no problem. But the issue is, this restless state not only ruins my mood but also affects my normal work efficiency during the day. People chasing altcoins are most prone to this problem—staring at the charts, unable to sit still with every tiny fluctuation, then inexplicably placing orders. What are the consequences of doing this? Confidence gets shaken, and behavior becomes more chaotic.
If you want to develop steadily in trading, you need to get rid of these clouded, impulsive trades. Trading without a plan is basically gambling.
Actually, there's a principle I've always wanted to say: the market always has only one direction—that is, the correct direction. It’s not about bulls winning or bears winning, but about following the market logic to win. Those blindly chasing gains or cutting losses are essentially gambling.
In the end, the biggest enemy on the trading road is not the market itself, but your own human nature. Your greed, your fear, your impatience—these are the real enemies.
Next week, I plan to review thoroughly, set clear rules, and follow them. A trading plan, a planned approach—this is the only way out.
***
Same old story, placing orders without a plan is just gambling. Wake up, everyone.
***
Staring at the screen until you crash is common practice, but it’s not worth it if it affects your work efficiency.
***
Going with the trend sounds simple in theory, but anyone can easily break down when actually doing it.
***
Rules need to be set by yourself, and you must be ruthless in enforcing them.
***
Shitcoin traders really have a certain character; they can’t resist when the price fluctuates by a penny.
***
Human nature is the biggest trap; the market is actually the most honest.
***
Review, review, review—don’t just keep reviewing and then continue to waste time.
***
I just want to ask how many people have set rules but then just ignore them when it’s time to execute.
***
People who chase gains and sell on dips will never learn because they simply don’t want to learn.
Wait, isn't this just gambling? I should have realized it long ago.
---
Exactly, it's the hardest part of human nature.
---
Me too, staring at the screen until my hand trembles and I place an order, then I start to regret.
---
The phrase "planned trading" must be engraved in your mind, or you'll never make money.
---
This reflection is on point; most people fail because they can't control themselves.
---
Really, when hands are idle, I want to operate, but every time I'm just giving money to the exchange.
---
The most miserable are those chasing knockoffs; watching the market 500 times a day is not excessive.
---
Following the rules sounds easy, but it's hard to do...
---
Getting the market trend right is crucial; otherwise, all plans are useless.
---
When the mindset collapses, work also falls apart. I deeply understand this now.
Exactly right, the market only recognizes logic, not your emotions. You need to stop when it's time to stop.
I have the same problem. When I get impatient, I forget all the rules, and then I start a cycle of heavy losses.
Talking about strategies on paper is easy, but when it comes to executing the rules, I collapse. Who isn't like that?
Greed, fear, impatience—I've taken all of them. That's the real heartache.
Wait, you say a weekly review can cure itchy hands? I've been itchy for half a year and still haven't stopped.
Placing orders without a plan is indeed gambling, but who can really stick to it? Easier said than done.
