My grid thinking - the comprehensive quality necessary for a trader

I suddenly thought of this topic last night. I heard Huiyou said that he couldn’t understand Munger’s grid thinking. Don’t tell me that I didn’t understand it when I first started. It seems that it has little to do with trading. , and it was quite difficult to read, and then I slowly recalled that the whole content is actually a thinking mode of thinking about problems from multiple angles.

Do you have a question? Why do we have to study language, mathematics, politics, history, geography, and biochemistry when we go to school. . . Could it be that the brains of the leaders and experts of the education department were caught by the door? No, they just want to train our multi-angle thinking, because we often need to think from different angles to solve problems in life. You can call it divergent thinking or grid thinking. Friends who have lived in the countryside since childhood should know bamboo craftsmen. The baskets and baskets they weave are actually a grid-like thing before the finished product. Bamboo strips need to pass through in different directions. After the finished product is finished, you can You will see a small nest in the middle, and all the bamboo strips are unfolded around it. Grid thinking in trading is a thinking about potential, state, and position around the position problem. So how do we have grid thinking in trading? This is a very long process, but people who love trading are worth your life's energy to pursue.

Let's start with the first element potential . To learn momentum well, you must be proficient in at least several core currency theories and geopolitics. . . The supply and demand of currency reflect the economic situation of a country. If you don't understand currency theory, you can't understand the reasons behind national policies. Under the tide of globalization, it is impossible for any country to develop independently of other countries. How to get along with its neighbors and the number one power will also affect the development policy and process of the country. The current Sino-US game is a very important one. Good example. China's development will inevitably violate the core interests of the United States' national strategy. As the United States, the imbalance of regional powers is in their interests. Here it is assumed that China and Japan join forces to form an alliance, and the European continental powers form an alliance. . . Do you think the United States can still gain a lot of benefits in the world?

The second is state. What is the state? In fact, it is behavior . Behind the transaction is the game of human nature, and the comparison is who knows who better. Here you think how to become an "extreme state master", you can see why the movements of Tai Chi seem to be slow, it is for cultivating the mind. Therefore, traders must be calm, calm, spot the opportunity, and attack quickly. How can this be done? First of all, you have to understand all kinds of mental tricks. Since it is mentioned above that trading is a game, then trading psychology, K-line morphology, game science, and behavioral finance. . . You have to learn both.

The third element is bits. What is a bit? In fact, it is a technical form. Many people may say that it is an indicator. Do you know that being proficient in one indicator requires many other indicators to be buried with it. What I mean is that only when you compare the profound meanings of various indicators and truly understand its profound operation connotation, will you know when to use which currency and which indicator, and then you must not only learn various indicators in this process, but also have the ability to Certain digital logic ability, even programming ability. . . .

The above content is simply a throw away. In the actual process, we still have a lot to learn, such as Buddhist scriptures, Tao Te Ching, Christian teachings, and philosophy. . . . All in all, we need to build multi-dimensional thinking. Trading is a large and diverse society, and we need to observe it from multiple perspectives. Otherwise, we cannot understand many phenomena. If we do not understand, we will only be ruthlessly killed by our opponents. Finally, keep in mind that grid thinking does not radiate out of order everywhere, but radiates around the core.
