I once thought trading was a shortcut to wealth, but later I realized it is more like a long-term game with oneself. There are no perpetual winners, only traders who continuously evolve.

What the market has taught me over the years is not just technology, but a profound understanding of human nature and risk. From blindly following trends to establishing a system, from emotional trading to mechanical execution, each step is marked by pain and growth.
What I share is not a "sure-win secret" but the real insights of a lonely trader.

1. The market never punishes mistakes, but will repeatedly educate you until you learn.
You think the secret to making money is hidden in some book, but the truth is: everything is out in the open. Trends, support, capital management, execution—trading is about taking these simple things to the extreme.

2. It is better to manage the present than to predict the future.
Those who guess the ups and downs every day either end up liquidated or get slapped in the face. Trading is not about prediction, but about execution. You cannot control the outcome of the next trade, but you can control whether you follow the rules. Over the long term, the odds always favor discipline.

3. Let profits run and cut losses.
Every newcomer wants to "make money steadily", but true stability comes from being able to cut losses and take profits. Losses are not scary; what's scary is not cutting losses. Profits do not rely on frequent trading, but on making one right trade to reap sufficient profits.

4. The closer you get to the market, the easier it is to be consumed by it.
Staring at the market for too long, making frequent trades, trying to catch every fluctuation—ends up only with anxiety and impulsiveness. Those who truly make money understand the need to maintain distance from the market. Patience is what makes a real expert.

5. True experts are actually quite boring.
They are not greedy, not anxious, and do not gamble. Their trading is so dull that it is almost mechanical: the rules remain unchanged, and execution is orderly. They do not become ecstatic due to profits, nor do they collapse due to losses. This "boredom" is their greatest advantage.

6. Trading is a marathon; living longer is more important than running faster.
The people who fail in the market are not those who are not smart, but those who did not survive. Control risks, control drawdowns, and ensure that you always qualify to stay in the market—time will give you compound interest.

The market will not reward you for your hard work, nor will it be lenient with you because you are smart. The market will not change; you can only change. It is not the technique that makes money, but the understanding; it is not the method, but the execution. When you truly realize these things, you will no longer need anyone's guidance—because the market has already taught you everything.
