#美联储重启降息步伐 Always getting liquidated? Still going all-in based on gut feeling?
Let me be real with you: It's not that you can't make money, it's that you never really learned how to "trade."
After being in this space for a while, I've seen too many people just like this—make a little profit on their first few trades, get overconfident right away, and start increasing their position sizes each time. When prices drop, they stubbornly hold on; when prices rise, they panic and chase. Their emotions are basically tied to the candlestick chart. Every time they get liquidated, they swear, "I'm never touching this again," but a couple of days later, they see the market moving and can't help but jump back in.
The truth? The market didn’t defeat you.
It was your own greed, fear, and those baseless assumptions that tripped you up.
I'm not here to preach. I've been liquidated too, lost money, and spent countless nights glued to the screen. But I want to use these hard-earned lessons to tell you: If you want to survive in trading, don't rely on luck—rely on "stability."
How do you manage your pace in futures trading? It's not about who gives better signals, it’s about knowing when to get in and when to get out. What if your mindset falls apart? Don’t bottle it up. Find the root cause of your emotional swings so you can truly adjust. How do you allocate your positions? That’s a technical skill, not something you decide on a whim.
I’m not some “trading guru.”
But I’m someone who’s been liquidated three times and is still willing to review, willing to change, and willing to start over.
If you’re also feeling lost in this market, and you’re not looking to "take a big gamble," but truly want to learn how to "survive"—
Then stop treating trading like gambling. Treat it like a craft you need to study, refine it slowly, and only then can you find your way to making money.

Seriously, quitting the bad habit of going all-in is the real key.
This guy actually makes some good points, especially when he said, "The market didn't defeat you, you screwed yourself over."

Seriously? You’ve been liquidated three times and you’re still here writing motivational stuff? Yeah right, like I’d believe you.

Got liquidated three times and still preaching? LOL, this is a classic case of survivor bias.
