Looking back on my trading career of over ten years, I can't help but feel a mix of emotions. In 2014, I entered this field with borrowed funds of 60,000 yuan, feeling anxious and uncertain. Today, my account has surpassed 8 digits. This journey has neither been a quick success nor solely reliant on luck; rather, it has been a continuous growth through falling and reflecting.
My trading style has evolved from long-term to short-term, and then to ultra-short-term and intraday swings. While I wouldn't dare to call myself a top expert, I am confident that my understanding of losses is deeper than that of most people.
Over the years, I have witnessed too many stories of people going from glory to ruin. Some have turned tens of thousands into tens of millions, only to see it all vanish in a bear market. The issue is not their technical level, but rather their over-reliance on the habit of 'holding positions'. When luck runs out and funds are depleted, a significant drawdown is enough to destroy all their achievements.
The most concerning thing is that many traders become impatient once they incur losses, and their eagerness to make back their losses leads to chaotic operations, ultimately resulting in significant losses. Although I am not a saint and have had moments of losing control over my emotions, I always keep one point in mind: the market does not operate according to personal desires.
The essence of trading lies in self-control, the courage to admit mistakes, and the determination to follow the rules. Many people do not lack trading skills, but rather cannot afford to lose, are unwilling to admit their errors, and are overly greedy. The so-called 'faith' and 'it will come back if you hold on' are actually just the self-deceptive mentality of a gambler.
Today, my assets have exceeded 10 million, which is not an achievement to boast about, but rather the result of strictly following simple rules: acknowledging mistakes, setting stop losses, making calm decisions, and avoiding impulsiveness. True success relies not only on skills but also on adhering to the rules every time to avoid self-destruction.
Market opportunities still exist. As long as you can control your emotions and adhere to discipline, even starting from ten thousand yuan, there is a chance to turn things around. This is a true reflection and valuable experience from my ten years of trading career.
