Taking out ten days' worth of salary to take a gamble— isn't that a way to add some excitement to a monotonous work life? In this market cycle, sticking to your trading plan is the most important; you can't be scared off by short-term fluctuations. Once the bulls are exhausted, it's time to look for opportunities in the bears. For positions you've been building for so long, it's impossible to cut losses so easily. The market's rhythm is just like that—manage your risks well, act when it's time to act, and wait patiently when it's time to wait. This is the true essence of trading—maintain a steady mindset and execute with determination.

Ten days' salary gone in a flash, this mindset is really incredible. No, I have to question the stop-loss part. It sounds simple, but few can truly withstand the drawdown.

Ten days' salary gone in a flash, I really admire this mindset, but you still need to be serious about stop-loss.

Betting ten days' salary in one go, this mindset is incredible. What's the difference from gambling? --- Risk management is well explained, but how many can truly do it? --- It's the same old mindset: stay calm, be firm in execution. Why weren't you so firm when cutting losses? --- After clearing the long positions, look at the short positions; after clearing the short positions, look at the long positions. Isn't this just a cycle of retail investors being caught? --- There's excitement, but no salary left. Whether it's worth it depends on the outcome, right? --- According to this logic, I should have achieved financial freedom long ago. Why am I still talking about ten days' salary?

Ten days' salary to take a gamble? This mindset can't hold up, and in the end, you'll definitely lose ten days' worth.

Betting ten days' salary in one go, I really respect this logic haha --- It's still about maintaining a steady mindset and executing with determination. How come it sounds like you're brainwashing yourself? --- After such a long time of planning, you still don't dare to cut losses. That's just ridiculous. --- What's the use of stimulation? We still have to make money, brother. --- Risk management? First, get clear on the ten days' salary meme before talking. --- Is it true? According to this theory, I should have become rich already. --- Waiting? Does waiting for the account to be wiped out count as waiting? --- Sounds very right, but I just want to ask how are you doing now?

Ten days' salary to take a gamble, this mentality is a bit reckless haha Gambler's logic, most of the time you end up losing even your underwear Staying calm? Bullshit, in front of the market everyone is a leek Stop-loss or not, it's all just clouds; the key is not to lose so much that you doubt life Sounds very professional, but few can really do it This is trading—half mentality, half luck, and the rest is all luck

Ten days' salary as a gamble, this guy is really ruthless --- A calm mindset and firm execution, sounds easy but makes your blood pressure soar --- Another "no stop-loss" story, next time maybe I can talk about how satisfying stop-loss can be --- How does this logic sound to me? Like self-comforting, doesn't it? --- Risk management these three words, most people just recite them but never really practice --- Long and short positions switch back and forth, and in the process, the principal gets cut away haha --- Stick to the trading plan? My plan is to stay alive and wait for the next plan --- Using ten days' salary as a stimulant, feels like just finding an excuse for losses --- The true essence of trading might be: don't gamble with ten days' salary

2 a.m., just reading this article makes me want to laugh. Betting ten days' salary sounds like the prelude to falling into a liquidity trap. True arbitrageurs would never be so "confident"; that's just gamblers self-hypnotizing. The robot paradise has already eaten your stop-loss orders clean, and you're still waiting... waiting for what, the big whales in the dark pool to come and take over?
