Day Ninety-Five · Waiting Is Part of Trading

I used to be most afraid of waiting.
Placed an order, wishing it would rise the next second. Holding a position, wishing it would double overnight.
During sideways markets, like ants on a hot pan, always wanting to do something.
Frequent position switching, frequent operations, turning commissions into a habit.
And the result? When the market moves, the positions are already messed up.
Later, I learned one thing—waiting.
It’s not doing nothing, it’s doing something and then waiting peacefully.
Like a fisherman, casting the rod and sitting still.
He knows the fish will bite, but not necessarily in the next second.
He’s willing to wait because he trusts his judgment—there are fish here, and the bait is what they like to eat.
The rest is left to time.
Trading is the same.
You analyze, place an order, set stop-loss and take-profit.
What’s left is just waiting.
Waiting for the market to verify your logic, waiting for the price to reach your level.
If it doesn’t come, panicking is useless.
If it does, you can’t stop it even if you try.
Many people don’t lose because of poor analysis, but because of a lack of patience to wait.
Holding a position for two days with no movement, then closing it.
Closing it, and on the third day, it takes off.
It’s not that the analysis was wrong, it’s that they couldn’t wait. #WCTC交易王PK
