Have you noticed that in the trading markets, we keep circling back to the same tragedies?

Honestly, 90% of traders end up becoming fuel for the market. This isn’t alarmist talk; it’s backed by real data. Why does this happen? Let’s get to the bottom of it today.

First, the fatal flaw: emotions controlling your account.

When the market rises 5%, palms sweat, and you’re eager to sell everything to lock in gains—afraid the “cooked duck” will fly away. But when you’re sitting on a 40% unrealized loss, suddenly you become a “value investor,” stubbornly holding on and telling yourself “long-term thinking.” This isn’t a trading strategy; it’s self-deception. The market will never change direction just because you insist on holding.

Second, a more insidious trap: blind faith in万能 formulas.

Treating various technical indicators like the Bible—MACD, KDJ, Bollinger Bands... studying them obsessively, thinking you’ve cracked the code to wealth. But the problem is, if you can’t even understand basic fund flows, how can you expect to predict the future with a few lines? Wake up. The publicly available tools have been overused by millions. Genuine alpha information? How could it be handed to you for free?

Third and most deadly: gambler’s mentality.

Treating trading as a lifeline to turn things around, going all-in with the hope of quick recovery. This isn’t investing; it’s a suicidal rush.
