Recently, the dentist leveraged 2,000 U to reach 100,000 U, skyrocketing 5 times,

As a result, last night, the Federal Reserve cut interest rates and blew up.

Reason?

The old problem—no stop loss.

Then he tweeted: “I’m an idiot, always walking the same path, waiting for a chance to break through.”

To be honest, I admire that.

Not because he made 5 times,

But because someone can repeatedly hit the same stone on their own foot and do it with such rhythm.

It is also because of this story that I want to say a cruel truth:

How to make money?

Trading.

What is trading?

It’s not “buy low and sell high,” that’s kindergarten level.

Real trading is an adult world of mutual slapping:

Whoever has poor cognition, poor mentality, and poor self-control,

Whoever will be slapped the loudest by the market.

The world is full of “inconsistencies”—

Inconsistent information, inconsistent cognition, inconsistent emotional tolerance, inconsistent future expectations.

What traders do is pick up the risks others dare not pick up in these gaps,

Swallow the noise others are unwilling to swallow,

Extract a bit of future certainty from chaos.

So the truly skilled traders,

Do not treat market trends as enemies,

Do not curse the big players as fathers.

What they trade is never K lines,

Nor assets.

They trade their own **cognitive boundaries**—

How deep you see, how much you understand, how much pain you can endure.

For many, the biggest problem in trading is not losing money,

It’s that they think they are in the trading market,

But in reality, they are being educated by the market.

When you start using the “complexity of the world” to buy your own growth,

When you stop fantasizing about getting rich overnight,

When you can face your weaknesses instead of blaming the market—

From that moment on,

You can truly step into trading.

Trading is not a skill, it’s a cognitive upgrade;

It’s not about buying low and selling high, it’s about becoming someone who will not be repeatedly educated by the same pit.

Losing once is called an accident,

Losing for a lifetime is called a style.

Note: Don’t be that idiot who relies on blowing up to refresh their cognition.
