Sounds like a motivational quote, but the issue of fuel costs is really hitting home.
I've also fallen into the trap of chasing high and killing low; it's a painful lesson.
System trading sounds simple, but sticking with it is really difficult.

System trading is actually more reliable than blindly guessing, but it's easier to say than to do.
Chasing highs and selling lows is indeed a problem that needs to be fixed.
Accepting small losses is fine, but the key is not to let small losses turn into big ones—that's the art of staying alive.
Most of the people who get liquidated are those without discipline; when emotions take over, no system can help.
A 157-point drawdown is nothing; I've seen losses wipe out several months of gains overnight.
$ETH This trading logic is good, but the trading fees are a bit high.
It's really about learning to wait; not every second needs to be acted upon.

Haha, systematic trading indeed requires discipline, but I care more about whether the stop-loss settings are truly effective.
To be honest, small losses are acceptable, but I'm afraid of a sudden drawdown leading to liquidation.
Chasing highs and selling lows... It's easy to say but hard to do, as emotions can easily influence judgment.
Sometimes, the cost of fuel and fees eats up more of the profits than the trading itself. How can this be optimized?
Following the system is correct, but the premise is that the system itself must be reliable.

That's right, but you need discipline, otherwise it's really easy to become a gambler.
I've seen too many people fall into the trap of chasing high and killing low, and the end result is always the same.
System trading is indeed stable, it all depends on whether you can stick to it.
Sometimes the hardest part isn't making money, but resisting the urge to act.
Setting stop-losses poorly is basically giving away money, there's nothing much to say.
Getting used to small losses is okay; anyway, a big wipeout is the real pain.
People with a gambler's mentality that can't be changed, no matter how many systems you try, won't be saved.
If the oil costs are so high but still able to generate stable returns, that’s true skill.
The biggest test now is mindset; markets change every day, if you don't change with them, you're finished.

System trading is real, but the prerequisite is that you have a reliable system, haha.
The habit of chasing highs and killing lows cannot be changed, and it's still prone to explosion.
