Want to strengthen your trading discipline? Try this method. Before each trading session, force yourself to sit quietly for thirty minutes. Just sit, do nothing. No music, no videos, and no scrolling on your phone. Let yourself fully immerse in silence. Many traders overlook one point — silence forces you to face your true thoughts. When external noise disappears, you can hear the voice inside and clear your mind. This simple practice can help you develop focus, making your trading more stable and your decisions more rational. Self-control is gradually built through these intentional pauses.

Haha, this is ridiculous. Sitting quietly for thirty minutes is actually faster than just looking at the candlestick chart. Can sitting still and daydreaming stop losses? I doubt it, bro. You need to combine this trick with a stop-loss order; otherwise, no matter how much you meditate, you can't save the trapped coins. It feels like they're advising us not to rush into operations, but when it really comes to the critical moment, who remembers this set? Human self-control, in the crypto world, is really as fragile as paper. Just sitting quietly isn't enough; you need genuine self-discipline. I'm afraid my physique isn't up to it. Thirty minutes is too short; I need at least an hour. That's my temper. It does make some sense, but I bet five dollars most people can't stick to it a second time.

Hmm... Who can sit still for thirty minutes if they are constantly watching K-line charts? I've really tried, and I get itchy in less than five minutes.

Sitting still for 30 minutes? Bro, are you meditating or waiting for a K-line rebound? --- Sounds nice, but I bet 5 bucks you won't last three minutes without checking your phone. --- I've tried this trick before, and ended up sitting quietly until I remembered I forgot to set a stop-loss, and I got even more panicked. --- Silence can indeed calm people down, but it also makes me reflect on why I'm still losing money. --- It sounds like a prelude to self-redemption—meditate first, then blow up your account. Beautiful. --- Compared to sitting still, I believe setting proper risk control rules and stop-loss points is much more useful. --- This thing does help with mental state, but the key is whether you can stick to it for a few days without regret. --- Oh my god, if I stop and think for thirty minutes, shouldn't I be stopping my loss on my order? --- That makes some sense, but I still use coffee and cigarettes to clear my mind. --- Another "cultivated" trading method—sounds profound but in reality, just don't be impulsive.
