The best state for a trader is to occasionally pause.


After a certain phase, actively choosing to stop is an extremely mature trading mindset and wisdom.
When you make a profit, you should stop and enjoy the victory, not chase after more.
When you suffer a loss, you should stop to prevent losing control, not quickly recover the loss.
This state of occasionally pausing will completely detach you from emotions and ego,
allowing you to see yourself from outside the market.
After each detachment, when you return to the market,
you will have an incredibly clear perspective and a very calm mindset.
Often, initial trades will go smoothly,
and both gains and losses will be more at ease.
A trader who doesn't know how to actively stop will often, after a big profit,
quickly give back the principal and profit to the market.
Likewise, after a big loss, they may collapse psychologically,
and destructive actions will directly blow up their account.
Therefore, even if the market gives you opportunities,
even if you capture profits,
ultimately, it’s all an illusion.
And this will trigger you to repeat the process,
because you've seen profits before,
and it will constantly tempt you to deposit funds and trade.
You convince yourself that this time is different,
but the truth is, you have never changed.
Every time, it’s the same.
No matter how much you’ve earned during the period,
you still double down and give it back to the market.
No one always loses.
The real reason you go bankrupt is that the market constantly encourages you with floating gains,
but you never see your own vulnerabilities and human weaknesses.
Until you are penniless, you realize that it’s too late to turn back.
True change begins at this moment.
You choose to stop,
whether you profit or lose,
as long as you reach your goal or stop-loss line.
No matter how great the market opportunities and temptations,
you can proactively leave.
Completely detach from the trading world,
and invest in every subtle aspect of life.
Trading is not your everything;
it’s just one way of living.
Detachment means not watching the charts, not listening to news, not paying attention to anything related to the market,
completely disappear from the market.
When you return, everything is anew.
Past profits become your principal.
You must cherish this capital.
All past losses are wiped out.
You must eliminate the impulse to recover losses.
This is the true meaning of actively leaving the market.
It allows you to start over after gains and losses,
rather than being driven by market desires and fears like a perpetual motion machine.
I hope every trader can occasionally pause,
and in the end, you will thank me for saying all of this. #24h加密合约清算破4亿美元
