#美联储联邦公开市场委员会决议 Trading Mindset: Less Chasing Charts, More Cultivating the Heart

In market trading, the hardest part is not just identifying the right direction, but maintaining the right mindset.

Are you constantly glued to the minute chart, dancing with every flicker? Celebrating with a two-point gain, panicking with a two-point drop? Clearly planning your entry and exit points, yet your fingers always want to interfere? The result is quick profits rushing to exit, big losses stubbornly holding on, repeatedly learning lessons from the market.

What I want to say is: the market is never a race of speed, but a contest of perseverance.

Market ups and downs won't speed up because you're anxious, nor will they reverse because you're stubborn. You should stay calm with your intended positions; when it’s time to cut losses, do it decisively—don't hope for a turnaround.

Instead of obsessing over why this K-line moves like this every day, focus on the bigger trend on weekly and monthly charts. The essence of trading is earning within your understanding, while cultivating a calm, steady heart.

Stay patient, and profits will naturally come knocking.

That's right, it's just being greedy. Every time I think I can catch the last limit-up, but then it drops after I buy in, and it rises after I cut losses. Now I've learned that watching the market really doesn't help; the more I watch, the more itchy my hands get.

Well said, but I just can't follow through. Every time, plans can't keep up with changes, and I regret clicking it out of impulse.

Oh, you're right. I just need to quit obsessively watching the charts; a mental breakdown is useless. --- Watching the intraday charts every day is really self-torture. It's better to go for a walk. --- The most heartbreaking thing is that I clearly made a plan but still messed up the operation out of impulse. Small profits are taken quickly, big losses are held onto stubbornly. I'm all too familiar with this cycle. --- Zooming out to a larger cycle definitely feels much better. Don't let minute-level fluctuations ruin your mood. --- I've heard this many times before, but the hardest part is execution. Greed really makes you lose your mind in a second. --- No matter how well I say it, I can't stop myself from refreshing the charts haha. It's a bad habit I can't break.

Exactly, it's just being reckless. I see the market and just want to make a move.
