Let me talk about my lifestyle. Because I am a long-term trader, I do not watch the market every day. Instead, I check the daily chart the next morning to see whether it went up or down yesterday, whether it has reached the entry point, what direction is currently strong, how to enter, or whether to layout for a reversal. I also consider how long this market phase might last and when I should plan for a reversal, as well as how to control my position size. This is the state of not having an open position. When I do have an open position, I enter when the price reaches the entry point, and then wait until the next morning to see how it went yesterday. I check whether the logic behind this trade has been invalidated by the market, and whether it is moving in the expected direction. If it is moving in the expected direction, I continue to hold. If the trade logic has been invalidated, I cut my losses and exit. Short-term traders might feel a bit more stressed as they constantly need to seek opportunities in the market. In fact, I spend very little time trading each day. It’s not that I don’t work hard; working with direction is much more useful than staring at the screen, which can lead to anxiety. Let me talk about the direction I am working hard on: 1. Persisting in the market. It’s not that if I lose all my money, I stop trading. After losing, I continue to watch the market and keep trading. Many traders stop trading when they face early losses, so they don't have the opportunity to endure until the positive feedback explosion later on. Many experienced traders may have gone through such a phase: opening trades, making money, opening trades, losing money, improving, opening trades, making money. Although there are still losses, you know the direction of your losses and believe that through improvement, you can progress. This positive feedback is truly rewarding. The reason why experts become stronger is that they have the experience, so they love to trade more, treating trading as a lifelong career rather than a short-term speculation. They treat their trading system as a product. The market is the buyer. If the buyer is not satisfied, they won’t pay you, so you must constantly improve. However, the buyer is fair and just, only looking at whether your product is qualified. As long as your product is qualified, they will reward you handsomely. 2. Review every trade. If I make money, I review the reasons for making money. Is it because I adhered to my logic and my stop-loss, or was it just luck? If I lose money, I review where I went wrong and how I can improve to avoid losing money next time. Reviewing trades is the diligence and effort in trading. Staring at the screen every day is not effort; reviewing each trade is what constitutes effort. When the direction is right, effort becomes useful.
