After experiencing a deep drawdown in my spot trading account in the first half of the year—nearly halving—and only then truly completed a reconfiguration of my investment mindset. Before that, years of consecutive profitability made me mistakenly treat cyclical tailwinds as trading ability. Now I’ve become more patient, calmer, and more prudent; with every step, I have clear goals. I’m increasingly convinced that investing isn’t about who can make money faster, but about who can stay in the game longer. The fundamental truth of investing is to always remain on the trading table. If you can earn, you must also learn to protect what you’ve earned. I feel like I’ve achieved mastery ^_^
