Don't Let "Feelings" Ruin Your Account



In the past, I lost money because I thought it would go up here and fall there.

Later I realized, what I think doesn't matter; what the market thinks is what matters.

Now I have only one trading rule: whatever the system tells me to do, I do it.

The system says: wait at the upper boundary of the ladder for a short signal. I wait, never act in the middle.
The system says: wait at the lower boundary of the ladder for a long signal. I wait, never cut losses in panic.
The system says: if you don't understand, wait. I wait, even if I miss ten trades, I won't make one mistake.

Someone asked: Aren't you tired doing this? I said: Yes, but losing money is more tiring.

Trading isn't about who sees the market most accurately; it's about who survives longer.

I've seen too many people who predict a trend very accurately but don't make money because they can't control their hands; I've also seen many who predict wrong but lose very little because they have discipline.

I don't want to be a "super accurate" lunatic; I want to be a "stable" fool.

My rules are written on paper and engraved in my mind:

· Act only at the line, do not act before or after
· Admit mistakes, don't be greedy when right
· Wait if you don't understand, act when you do

How the market moves is the market’s business. Whether I can make money is my business. The only way to profit is to do my "business" well—execute the system and follow discipline.

There is no Holy Grail, only discipline. No miracles, only repetition.

Starting today, be a "emotionless" trader. When signals come, fire; when they don't, sleep. No hesitation, no regrets, no holding on to trades.

Turning off the trading software the moment you can sleep peacefully is more important than how much money you make. $BTC $ETH
