Personal Rambling About Trading
First of all, personally, I’m really into trading.
My favorite part is the focus you get when you trade.
In previous years, when doing anything else, I never felt that adrenaline rush and that euphoric sense of being highly mentally concentrated.
From the three theoretical pieces by the trading master
I learned a lot.
I suggest you just bookmark this page and open it whenever you’re free.
Now, tokenized US stocks are, in essence, no different from the crypto world.
Besides, when we buy contracts, what we’re really doing is trading a token symbol.
TradFi is, at its core, just something that absorbs liquidity.
It’s not that grand—only the emotional swings are bigger.
The most basic thing, and the simplest thing:
Buy high and sell low?
No—
Sell high and buy low.
That runs through the entire trading process.
As for the so-called things that may branch out from it—
playing a game against some “big shot” whale traders,
playing a game against market policies,
taking profit and cutting losses...
All of those matter only to a small extent.
And that’s all tied to just one thing: your principal and your patience.
We need to learn to demystify those big shots.
When they show you positions worth hundreds of thousands,
what does that have to do with you?
What use is it for you?
What we need to learn is trading,
not being a clueless idiot who just keeps shouting “so awesome!”
There’s no such thing as always-profiting.
Only by finding opportunities amid endless cycles of profit and loss—
and an opportunity that’s big enough for you to make a lot.
For normal trading,
like mainstream coins or US stocks,
my positions are larger,
and I don’t trade back and forth frequently.
In the end, it’s only a few trades a month, and the principal doubles.
To restrain my own impulses,
I chose a release valve: altcoins.
With 10U in capital, I trade frequently.
Result: I’ve just been hovering around 10U as the principal.
Of course, this is just my personal habit.
I’m not asking everyone to do the same.
Everyone needs their own trading style, trading habits, and trading cognition.
If you don’t even have that,
then I suggest you go find a class to take.
Because if you earn by luck, you will definitely lose it all back through skill.
You must have patience.
Learn to tolerate being in cash with no position.
In trading, opportunities are never lacking.
What’s missing is when the moment comes—you need the decisiveness to act and the funds.
The most fascinating and also most坑 (pitfall-filled) thing about the crypto world:
perpetual futures contracts,
playing small to beat big,
the myths of 100x and 1000x,
the tragedy of getting liquidated,
and the misery of being back to broke overnight.
Since you’ve entered this circle,
and you’ve chosen to trade,
please take it seriously.
After all, how many times can you encounter something this fair?
