Scoring 700 points is pretty good, but this article really hits the point—so many people fail at the step of "thinking they know." Knowing about stop-loss and actually executing a stop-loss are two different things.

Hitting 700 points is indeed satisfying, but this guy's words are not wrong... Most people are still dreaming about it
To put it bluntly, knowing and doing are two different things. I've learned this lesson the hard way
Stop-loss is the ultimate test of human nature; very few people can truly be ruthless about it

Getting 700 points is indeed good, but I've seen too many of these signal posts... The ones that can truly make money are operating quietly and won't be posting this every day.

Getting 700 points feels really good, but the ones who truly make money are never those who rely on calling signals.

Scoring 700 points is indeed impressive, but as this article points out, knowing what to do is one thing, actually executing it is another. Many people have fallen here.

Scoring 700 points is pretty good, but honestly, I've seen too many of these signal calling posts. The key is to have a complete set of strategies yourself—understanding technical analysis, mindset, and stop-losses—only then can you truly succeed.

Damn, it's the same old story again. Knowing what to do is easy, but actually doing it is hard, brother. Most people can't stick with it for even three months.

Scoring 700 points is pretty good, but honestly, this kind of short-term thrill is the easiest to get addicted to. This article makes a good point—most people get stuck at the step of "imagining the future."
Knowing what to do is easy, but actually doing it is another story, brother. Stop-loss sounds simple, but when it comes to execution, it's a whole different ballgame. I've also fallen into that trap, and only later did I realize that compared to guessing the market blindly, it's better to focus on solidifying your mindset.

Scoring 700 points is indeed satisfying, but reading this article feels a bit too plain... Most people just get stuck between "knowing" and "doing," right? It's easy to say.

700 points is 700 points, but after hearing this, it's even more valuable. The worst thing is those who keep shouting orders every day around you, but end up losing everything themselves, haha.
