Setting your trading mindset once, then letting it operate while staying alert to market shifts—that's what intention-driven trading looks like.

You establish the framework.
Let it execute.
Adjust only when the environment genuinely changes.

This approach cuts through emotional noise. Rather than chasing every signal, you anchor on a clear intention and move from there. When conditions actually flip, you recalibrate. Otherwise, you stick with the plan.

It's less about constant tweaking, more about disciplined flexibility.

That's right, discipline is essential. I used to be the kind of person who wanted to chase after everything I saw, and as a result, I lost money very quickly. Now I've learned to set a framework and just stay silent and wait, which is much more comfortable.

Well said, that's exactly the point. Most people end up losing because they can't resist messing with their plans every day.

Well said, that's exactly the point. Once the rules are set, don't mess around. If the market really changes, then adjust; otherwise, constantly tweaking your plan will just ruin your mindset. I used to be the type to change my plan ten times a day, and as a result, I lost money even faster. Now I stick strictly to the framework, and I don't touch the market unless there's a clear signal. In fact, I've been earning more steadily. That's true discipline.

Ha, that sounds nice, but let me ask—does the framework you set up withstand a wipeout? --- It's that same "stick to the plan" rhetoric. I believed it last time too, and only realized after a 30% crash. --- Reverse indicators are online. The more I hear this kind of talk, the more I want to do the opposite. --- Discipline and all that, first let the withdrawal card stay alive. --- Wait, how do you define "environmental change"? I think it usually happens after everything's already reset to zero. --- Isn't this just the self-hypnosis of advanced retail investors? Keep holding on, and in the end, it leads to the coffin. --- No, according to this logic, I should have become a master long ago, but I only ended up as a reverse indicator.

Well said, that's the point... the prerequisite is that you need to have discipline, otherwise even the best framework is useless.
