Wei brothers and Cucumber Meow interact on intraday high-frequency and periodic low-frequency trading discussions, each sharing different trading styles that have brought very good results, too much valuable information.
Seeing this topic, it sparked some insights, and I would like to share a little:
First, let’s get to the point: there is no absolute right or wrong between low-frequency and high-frequency; being able to achieve great results in both different styles indicates sufficient familiarity and understanding in this style, which is the crystallization of long-term experience accumulation, having formed a trading system with positive expected value.

The text states that 'day trading is structurally a SCAM'. Intraday high-frequency trading is a structural scam.
This summary may superficially seem to deny intraday high-frequency trading, equating high-frequency with trash. In reality, it is a warning from a high-end player to most ordinary traders from the 'top', because to achieve the same result, the threshold required for intraday high-frequency trading is much higher than that for periodic low-frequency trading. Most ordinary traders find it difficult to follow this path when they first start, unless they have enough talent and experience accumulated from other trading markets.
When I first started doing rebates, I encountered too many fans coming and going, and I witnessed too many accounts making huge profits and then going bankrupt. This deepened my understanding of both intraday high-frequency and periodic low-frequency trading. I understand that high rebates and fan profits are negatively correlated; if you want high rebates, you will inevitably sacrifice fans. If you want IP continuity, you should pay more attention to guiding fans and novice traders to start from low-frequency trading, rather than high-leverage intraday high-frequency trading.
But this realization can only be understood by those who have experienced a lot; most seek immediate experience and immediate gains, which cannot be stopped!
So, what I want to express is that both styles are correct; they are both profitable models that exist in mature markets and have been proven to yield significant results. Huanggua Miao and Paul Wei are two current representatives. However, from the perspective of most ordinary traders, periodic low-frequency trading is more friendly, while intraday high-frequency trading is a narrower, more competitive, and more professional path. The accomplishments are not about frequency, but about having a suitable trading system that achieves positive EV and long-term stable execution.
Therefore, I suggest to most ordinary traders:
Recognize yourself from aspects such as time, psychological pressure resistance, self-discipline in execution, and cognition.
Use small positions to experience, learn, and accumulate experience in intraday high-frequency trading, while using large positions for low-frequency periodic opportunities. Ultimately, after a certain period of time and experience, find a long-term stable execution path that belongs to you and suits you, achieving significant results.
Shallow opinions, if there are any mistakes, thank you for your guidance! 🙏🙏🙏
