Key Recommendations to Improve Trading Success Rate (Minimalist Practical Version)



1. Mindset Risk Control (Decides How Long You Survive)

1. Never fully allocate your position, strictly limit single-loss to 1%-2% of total funds, avoid heavy positions when bottom-fishing
2. Trade without emotional influence, avoid revenge trading by adding positions, and do not hold on to losses without stop-loss
3. Stop immediately after 2-3 consecutive losses, calmly review instead of rushing to recover
4. Accept small losses, refuse to believe that holding on will turn into profit

2. Entry Rules (Increase Win Rate)

1. Only trade in the trend, follow the larger cycle direction, do not trade against the trend to catch rebounds
2. Stick to a fixed trading model, only trade familiar patterns, avoid switching strategies randomly
3. Enter only after clear signals, do not pre-judge or chase after sharp rises or drops
4. Prioritize high reward-to-risk ratio: reward/risk ≥ 2:1, aim for big gains and small losses

3. Stop Loss and Take Profit (Secure Profits)

1. Set stop-loss levels before entering, exit unconditionally when reached
2. Gradually move stop-loss to lock in profits after gains, prevent floating profits from turning into losses
3. Do not greedily chase the entire trend, take profits in batches and secure gains
4. Trade less in choppy markets, focus on trend-following with heavy positions in trending markets

4. Position Size and Cycle

1. Use small positions for short-term quick trades, hold steady with larger positions for medium to long-term
2. Find entry points on small cycles, determine direction on larger cycles, trade only when multiple cycles resonate
3. Avoid sudden volatility caused by news or extreme late-night market moves

5. Discipline and Review

1. Record daily trading logs: reasons for entry, profit/loss, mistakes
2. Eliminate ineffective strategies, solidify high-probability methods
3. Trade less frequently, reduce invalid trades, prefer quality over quantity
4. Strictly follow your plan, plan your trades, trade your plan

6. Key Points to Avoid Pitfalls

- Do not trust insider information, signal calls, or rumors
- Do not average down on losing positions; adding to losing trades increases risk
- If market is unclear, stay out and observe
- Long-term stable profits depend on rules, not luck
