#美国消费者物价指数发布在即 Market movements make your heart tremble. Wanting to buy the dip for fear of missing out, finally entering the market but feeling restless—rushing to close profits when it rises, sweating when it falls, eager to turn the tide.



Honestly, this isn't a technical issue; it's the "heart demon" that everyone who enters the market can't avoid.

I've been through it too. Clearly having a plan, but losing composure when looking at the K-line. Wanting to run after making a profit, wanting to fight when losing. Tossing back and forth, but the account looks worse and worse. At that time, I thought I was trading, but in fact, I was battling my own fear and greed.

Only later did I realize a painful truth: most people's losses in the market are not because the market is too fierce, but because their inner world is too chaotic.

Long-lived and successful traders share one trait—
Calmness. It's that simple and straightforward.

I've developed three habits that might help you:

**1. Draw your boundaries before entering the market.**
Set your stop-loss and take-profit levels before entering, then execute without hesitation. Don't change your mind at the last minute—that's suicide. Discipline is your life-saving charm.

**2. Don't keep your eyes glued to the screen.**
Market fluctuations themselves are not scary; being led by volatility is the real danger. The longer you stare at the screen, the faster your rationality dissipates. Sometimes turning away and walking off can give you a clearer view.

**3. Cultivating mental strength is more important than studying indicators.**
The market is like a mirror. It doesn't reflect how smart your analysis is; it shows how panicked you are when facing uncertainty. It doesn't reward the impatient, only those who can stay calm.

The true logic of profit is simple—
Act decisively when it's time to act; stay calm as a mirror when waiting.

Being able to control your hands, stick to your rules, and keep your heart steady will help you navigate the market more steadily. Compared to pondering how the next wave will move, mastering yourself is often a more difficult lesson and the most worthwhile effort.

Exactly right, it's all about discipline. I used to watch the market every day, but the more I watched, the more I lost. Now I set my stop-loss and turn away, and I feel much more comfortable.

It's a nice way to put it, but this self-control theory is still too idealistic. The ones who actually survive are not necessarily the calmest; rather, they are the lucky few whose incentives happen to align. Most rule-makers will eventually be broken by market irrationality; discipline is as fragile as paper in the face of extreme market conditions.

There's nothing wrong with that; mindset can truly determine the fate of an account. I used to be the kind of person who watched the charts until my eyes hurt, with stop-loss lines being virtually useless, and in the end, I gave back all the profits and even lost my principal. Now, by strictly following discipline, I actually make steadier gains.
