Miracle Trading Miscellany I think I understand it roughly. Trading profits that fall from the sky are so-called huge gains, but they are just illusions gained by others' lucky bets. Turning over red and green in a flash, it all becomes an illusion in the blink of an eye. Watching the charts until midnight, the K-lines on the screen twist and turn like a tangled web at the alley entrance that’s hard to untangle. There are always people holding onto their orders claiming they’ve caught the trend, only to be dragged along by the market. They rejoice over small profits, but feel dejected when losing their principal. They probably forget that the market never stops for anyone’s obsession. I’ve never been afraid to consider the worst-case scenario for the market. Don’t panic during a decline, don’t greed during a surge. The principles are simple, but it’s hard to practice. Most people crave quick gains and become distracted by short-term fluctuations, unaware that the essence of trading is simply enduring impatience and waiting for one’s own opportunity. There are no natural-born trading experts; it’s just countless stop-losses that temper patience, repeatedly reviewing and understanding the market. Those slogans of “certain victory” and “secret techniques” are mostly scams to fool novices. True trading is about recognizing mediocrity, sticking to the rules, staying clear-headed amid chaos, and seeking stability amid volatility. This market has always been about smart people making money from the reckless, steady people making money from the impatient. Both rises and falls are just clouds; only by holding onto your core can you find a foothold amid the red and green fluctuations.
