Bottom-fishing: The night session begins, and the market enters countdown mode
Stage One: Studying technical analysis.
You stare at candlestick charts, moving averages, and MACD every day, studying all kinds of strategies and indicators. The more you learn, the more excited you get, always feeling like you know a little more than everyone else—and are a little closer to making money.
Stage Two: Putting too much faith in tools.
You start switching platforms, buying data, and adding indicators, until your screen is practically covered. I still use TradingVane to look at charts and browse daily research reports, but I no longer expect any tool to tell me whether prices will rise or fall.
Stage Three: Chasing hot trends.
When technical analysis doesn't seem to work, you start monitoring news, policies, the Dragon-Tiger List, and big-name commentators. You rush toward whatever's hot. You learn more and more about what's happening, but your account often ends up buying at the very top.
Stage Four: Teaching others how to trade stocks.
You haven't even achieved consistent profits yourself, yet you're already summing up strategies, writing trade reviews, and sharing your insights. Get one call right, and you think you've found the secret to wealth. Suffer a few consecutive drawdowns, and you throw out all your previous conclusions.
Stage Five: Becoming completely hands-off.
You stop fantasizing about doubling your money overnight, and stop calculating every day when you'll be financially free. First, protect your principal and avoid trades you don't understand.
A very small number of people reach Stage Six: finding a trading approach that truly suits them. They know what kind of returns they're making, how much of a drawdown they can tolerate, and when they should stay out of the market.
At this point, the market no longer feels like a casino. It feels more like a business that takes time and care to build.#以太坊跌破2400美元 $NVDAB
