Core traits suitable for trading, categorized into distraction, cognition, and execution, precisely aligned

1. Mindset (accounts for 70% of trading success or failure, hardest to change later)

1. Extremely stable emotions, able to accept losses
Will not revenge trade after a loss, will not become greedy after a win; can calmly accept stop-loss, do not tie account gains and losses to self-worth, won't feel anxious or insomnia after losses, won't become inflated after gains.

2. Highly disciplined, able to control instincts
Humans naturally chase rising prices and sell falling prices, often itching to open positions; suitable traders can control their hands, stay out of the market without signals, exit unconditionally at stop-loss, and avoid overconfidence.

3. Extremely rational, reject subjective obsessions
Do not pre-judge the market in advance, do not fight the market; won't stubbornly hold onto wrong directions to dilute costs, can overturn original views at any time, and respect the market.

4. Able to endure loneliness and boredom
Most of the time is spent waiting for opportunities, no thrill in frequent trading, review alone, bear losses alone, do not rely on others' news to trade.

2. Cognitive ability (can be trained later, the foundation)

1. Skilled in review and summary, growth mindset
Break down the cause of each profit and loss, establish repeatable rules, avoid repeating the same mistakes; treat trading as a probability game, understand that single wins or losses are not important, long-term win rate + risk-reward ratio are the core.

2. Strong logical thinking, reject fragmented information
Do not rely on insider info, rumors, or live room calls; able to build a complete closed-loop system: entry, stop-loss, take-profit, position sizing, adding positions with standards.

3. Maximize risk sensitivity, always prioritize survival
The first thought is not how much can be earned, but how much can be lost; always control position size, avoid heavy bets, understand risk diversification.

4. Willing to commit long-term, reject overnight wealth fantasies
Accept a polishing period of at least 1–3 years, do not expect to double wealth in a few weeks, understand that trading is a slow compound interest business.

3. Hard real-world conditions (many ignore, determine if you can survive)

1. Trading with disposable funds: capital that can be completely lost without affecting life, mortgage, living expenses, emergency funds must not be invested; financial pressure will distort operations.

2. Sufficient free time / suitable time windows: short-term trading requires monitoring the screen, long-term trading requires regular review; busy with work and unable to monitor or review makes success difficult.

3. High stress resistance: able to face several stop-losses or a dozen in a row without mental breakdown.

Reverse screening: these types of people are generally not suitable

• Eager to get rich quickly, gambling mentality, always want to bet on big trends

• Strong control desire, always want to precisely predict every K-line

• Severe emotional volatility, prone to impulsiveness or throwing tantrums

• No time for review, lazy to refine rules, only want to copy strategies

• Rely on trading to support family and debt, under financial pressure
