From 1w to 100w: 9 hands-on playbook lessons that are truly valuable



These are only my personal, years-long market review takeaways; they do not constitute any investment advice. The market is extremely volatile—participate rationally and strictly control risk.

In the trading market, getting from a small amount of capital to double gains through compounding truly has methods and know-how.

The 9 items below are all hard-earned, real experiences I lost money to, and practiced into; if you fully grasp them, ordinary people can also slowly build their own excess returns.

1. Don’t greedily chase frequent opportunities—only focus on high-certainty trends
Your principal is limited to begin with, so there’s no need to trade constantly every day.
If you can catch just one wave of a high-certainty opportunity in a day, that’s enough.
Don’t always think about holding positions continuously and always making money—there are no such always-winning chances in the market.

2. When good news plays out, don’t get stuck in it
The real rule: good news is basically a staged peak.
If the price spikes up that day, try to lock in profits as much as possible; even if it gaps up the next day, you should still reduce positions and exit first.
Don’t wait until the trend pulls back, then regret your greed for not having left.

3. Pay attention to the news cycle and holiday rhythm
Before major news and holidays, prioritize reducing positions and staying on the sidelines to observe.
If you can’t understand it or it’s uncertain, don’t trade—inside trading, being steady is always more important than being fast.

4. For long- and mid-term, you must go light and move slowly
Long-term profits come from accumulating over time, not from going heavy to gamble on luck.
If your position is too heavy, your mindset will inevitably get thrown off; with even a small fluctuation, you won’t be able to hold, and you’ll end up either missing the move or losing.

5. For short-term trades: enter fast and exit fast
If the opportunity is clear, participate decisively; if the price action goes wrong, leave immediately.
Short-term trading is most afraid of dragging on with hesitation and wishful thinking— the more you hold through losses, the more you lose.

6. Always follow the market’s pace and rhythm
When the market is slow, observe; when the market is fast, go with the trend.
Don’t subjectively guess up or down, and don’t fight the market—following the trend is the way for the long run.

7. If you get the entry price wrong, never hard-hold (no stubborn holding)
Stop-loss is not a loss—it’s protection for your principal.
Hard-holding without cutting will not only trap you, it will also drag a small loss into a much bigger one.

8. For short-term, use cycle signals to improve win rate
In daily trading, you can refer to short-cycle K-lines and technical indicators to assist in judging entry and timing.
Only trade opportunities you can clearly understand—don’t enter vaguely.

9. In trading, what ultimately decides everything is mindset
Big rallies and big crashes are normal in the market; volatility itself is part of the market.
Only those who can stay calm and stick to rules can keep trading for a long time and be able to make money.

In fact, the market has never been about who’s got the biggest nerve,
it’s about who is more self-disciplined, who is more stable, and who understands how to respect market behavior.
If you fully grasp the rules and keep your mindset steady, even ordinary market conditions can slowly produce excess returns.

Hard holding really ruins everything—going from 50k to zero only took a week

Following the market trend sounds easy to talk about, but those who actually do it are rare—let’s encourage each other.

Article 3 is too real: before public holidays, you must definitely reduce your positions. I was taught a lesson once during last year’s National Day holiday, and I’ve been behaving myself ever since.
