Trading may seem complicated, but it's really just two words: patience. This skill looks simple, but in reality, it's like a huge mountain blocking the vast majority of people.
To be honest, the tricks of trading are not hard to understand. Technical analysis, capital flow, and other aspects are easy to learn. What really holds people back? It's that you, damn it, simply can't wait.
The traders who are thriving in the market, their secret is this one word—patience. This isn't about sitting idly and staring blankly, but about strategic planning.
What does strategic planning mean? It means focusing on key points and then making precise moves.
Waiting for what? Waiting for a few things:
Waiting for panic selling to emerge. If the market crashes and retail investors are terrified and start cutting losses, that's when the bottom opportunity appears.
Waiting for a sign of stabilization. If the price can hold steady and stop falling, it indicates that the bottom has been built, which is an important psychological barrier.
Waiting for a reversal confirmation. It’s not about a 1-2% dip and then reversing, but waiting for the trend to truly turn around and confirm a new direction.
Waiting for the right entry point. A good entry point can save you from unnecessary detours, and getting the rhythm right can significantly improve returns.
Waiting to exit when momentum exhausts. When a rally can no longer advance, it’s time to take profits decisively.
Waiting for a pullback to confirm support. Confirming that the bottom pullback holds at the support level is the real safe zone.
To be blunt, this 'waiting' is the highest barrier in the trading circle. 90% of people fail here, not because they are not smart, but because their mindset is not properly adjusted.

That's right, but the hardest part is the mindset. I've also been blocked by this mountain many times.

It's true, 90% of people die because they can't wait. All the ones around me who operate frequently every day end up losing everything.

Waiting for this word to be good, I just can't wait for that kind... Every time, I run out early.

There's nothing wrong with what you said, but the hardest part is the mindset. I'm just that 90%...

That's right, it's just a matter of having a poor mindset. Most people can't endure those few days at all and start getting itchy just by looking at the K-line.

That's right, it's just that my mentality collapsed. I used to be the same; watching the coins drop made me feel uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but sell.

Really, at the end of the day, it's all about mindset. I always want to jump in quickly, but it always results in heavy losses.

It's really about the mental state being the hardest to overcome. Watching others go all-in and make a fortune, while I feel itchy and uncomfortable.
