What conditions are needed to achieve stable profitability?
There are 3 major elements of stable and profitable trading: 1. Stable system 2. Stable execution 3. Stable mentality. The three elements of profitability complement each other and influence each other.A good system guides good execution, good execution brings good results, good results bring good mood, and good mood will in turn promote execution. But having said that, any mature trading system, including the original system, can only solve the first basic element. And stable execution and stable mentality cannot be solved by any system itself. A system is only a method of trading, not the result of trading. To form a profitable state of sustainable operation, not only the system is needed, but also one's own trading quality. Without any one piece, the wheel of profitability cannot move forward.
What is the essential difference between a good analyst and a good trader?
There is a huge difference between a good analyst and a good trader. Many analysts analyze the market and talk about theories in a clear and logical way, with a high accuracy rate.But once on the battlefield, the real gold and silver were slaughtered in the market, and most of them returned in defeat. The truly powerful masters are consistent in analysis and transaction execution, which is what we often say is the unity of knowledge and action.To become an excellent trader who combines analysis and actual combat, obviously, this goal is not easy. This also confirms the reason why there are so many callers who are quite accurate when you look at them, but you will lose money if you follow them.[Image]Most theorists end up being a one-man, the kind who don't do it themselves.What do you think?
Which is of greater significance and simplicity for you: a High Risk-Reward Ratio (RR) or a High Win Rate?
For me, achieving a high Risk-Reward Ratio takes a considerable amount of time and necessitates a lot of patience. It's led to instances where I've experienced substantial losses. This has led me to contemplate whether lowering my RR might result in a significantly improved win rate. What's your experience with this? I'm curious to hear your thoughts.Looking forward to your responses! 🙏🏼
In trading, should you take your intuition into account in addition to the rules?
[Image]Sometimes when operating according to one's own trading system and rules, a feeling suddenly emerges, such as the condition for opening a position, but this time it is different from the past and feels uneasy. If you believe in your intuition, this is called inconsistency between knowledge and action, and you will condemn yourself intellectually, but after trading for so long, is such a sixth sense really illogical?Some people should think that it is because of the greed and fear of human nature, which cannot be completely overcome, but most people still need to continue to practice on this point. In addition, I would like to ask everyone, how do you view and deal with your own intuition in trading? Or, are some people who have fully achieved the unity of knowledge and action, and no longer have this feeling?
A handful of bitter tears, I have been trading for five years, and I still lose money, what should I do?
