深度思考理性分析

The truly worth recording "progress" is often not the numbers on the account.

This week, I deliberately recorded some less "exciting" things:

There were several times I could have impulsively placed an order but ultimately held back;

There were several times I followed my plan to cut losses and didn’t go for another "bet";

There were several times I wanted to chase the highs but chose to close the software instead.

These moments may seem mundane at the time,
they won’t show up in profit screenshots,
but in the long run,
they might be more important than any short-term profit.

If you’re also practicing to be a bit more rational,
it might be worth trying to note these small moments down.

Many people do not lose because of their skills, but because of "role misalignment".

Think about it:
If you have to work during the day, take care of children, and handle many trivial matters,
yet you keep fantasizing about being a "high-frequency short-term trader",
this itself is already a wrong role setting.

Trading does not have only one way to play:

Some people are suited for day trading.

Some people are suited for swing trading.

Some people are suited only for regular investments and asset allocation.

When you choose the wrong role, even the best strategy cannot be used effectively.
So sometimes,
you need to honestly answer yourself a question:
What type of trader am I really suited to be?

"Missing" this course, sooner or later you will have to learn

Most of the experienced traders I know have gone through one thing:
Watching a big market move right in front of their eyes,
whether they didn't get on board or got off halfway.

In the past, I considered this as "bad luck",
now I prefer to see it as a compulsory course:

Accept that you can't have every bite;

Accept that you can only act on the parts you understand;

Accept that some opportunities are just there to tell you "next time be prepared a bit earlier."

Those who can coexist peacefully with "missing",
are the ones who will not panic when the next suitable opportunity arises.

If you treat your account curve like a "report card," how would you approach it?

Many people, upon seeing drawdowns, start to hate themselves:
"Am I not suitable for this?"

But I now prefer to view the account curve as:
A reflection of my decision-making habits magnified over time.

If the curve fluctuates like an electrocardiogram:
It indicates that I am still very impulsive in emotions and positions;
If the curve becomes smoother:
It suggests that I have become more patient in choosing battlefields and timing for action.

When you treat it as a "habit report,"
You won't just focus on one or two gains and losses,
But will think—
Can I gradually eliminate bad habits?
