It's been over half a year since I've seen such a trade. Turning 150,000 yuan of principal into over 2 million, that period really helped me find my rhythm.

But my performance this month hasn't been great. The returns barely exceeded 5% of the principal. Honestly, this kind of return rate is a bit exhausting. Sometimes I make a lot, sometimes I lose even faster, and I always feel like I haven't quite figured out the pattern.

I'm thinking of taking a break now. Not giving up, but just needing to organize my thoughts properly. Looking back at recent trades, I want to see where I went wrong. The market's volatility is indeed high, but more often than not, it's my own mindset—being too greedy or too timid—that leads to pitfalls.

My recent realization is: instead of chasing short-term explosive gains, it's better to focus on steady compound growth. I'm tired of those all-in strategies hoping for a double-up in one shot. True experts are those who keep risk within manageable limits and consistently outperform the market over one or two years.

So, let's consider this period as a recharge phase—study the market more, think more about strategies, and wait until I regain that stable feeling before stepping back in.
