I asked myself this question when I was trading, especially when the trading was not going well, I asked myself this question many times. Am I really suitable for trading? Is trading suitable for me? I think most traders have asked themselves this question, are you suitable for trading? What kind of qualities do you have to be suitable for trading? Based on myself and the good people around me, I have summarized a few things.
1. A person who is good at independent thinking. This article is very broad, but it may play a decisive role. In other words, your correct understanding of trading independence plays a key role in trading. The depth of your understanding of trading determines how much you can achieve in trading. Soros has his own reflexive theory, and Buffett has his own value investing philosophy. Livermore has its own set of logic to understand the market, so they have become kings in the market. For ordinary traders, it may be difficult for us to be the king, but if you want to survive in this market, your own knowledge of trading is crucial. Do you see which trader without independent thinking and theory is successful. Those who rely on the analysis of Mr. Shan to make orders every day, and those who follow other people's signals to copy orders every day, will remain in place for ten years and achieve nothing.
Of course, such traders account for the vast majority. What do others say? The teacher is amazing, the teacher is right. Not very promising. It's very simple, doing business is the same as doing business. Whether the boss who does a good business or the boss is his own deep understanding of the business he does and the inherent success logic. Ma Yun, Liu Qiangdong, Dong Mingzhu, do you think they are lucky? They all have their own independent and in-depth thinking about the industry market, and then they have such a great career.
For professional traders, in addition to keeping an eye on the transaction list after placing an order, how much basic skills have you done before placing an order? If you have independent thinking about what you do, you may not be able to succeed, but if you do not have this, you must not be successful. Don’t understand the deviation here. What I mean by independent thinking is not to let you predict the market, nor to let you watch the ups and downs of the k-line and express your own opinions on the next ups and downs. This is too small to be in the scope of my discussion.
If you still don't know how to understand trading as a whole and think about trading, establish your own set of thinking logic and system. Then read more books and ask some experts for advice. Don't just ask how gold looks, what the euro looks like. This level does not allow you to advance much.
2. A person with great patience or a person with determination. Trading requires concentration, no matter how the k-line changes, it will not affect your emotions, just wait for the point given by the system to appear, do not predict, judge, or expect. No matter how good the market is, you should stick to the appearance of your own system signals. It is easy to say, but it is very difficult. This has a lot to do with personal xinxing.
Everyone will definitely meet such a kind of person, you can feel the stable and determined aura as soon as you meet him. This is something that cannot be pretended, it is born from the heart, and it is the external form of expression given to us by his heart. You will also meet a kind of person who feels a lot smarter when you meet him, especially shrewd. This is also the external expression of experience. I have met too many people who are usually very smart and narrow-minded, and their transactions are messed up. Because the market will expand your clever mind infinitely, and it is the nature of these people to make a little money and run away. Never deny your own judgment when you lose money, and carry it to the end. The market specially teaches such clever people, and it will definitely make your cleverness pay for it. On the contrary, people with strong determination, patience, etc., and those who hold patience and do not easily change their trading signals, the market will pay for his determination.
3 people with good execution ability. Execute every transaction plan like a soldier. Reflexive execution is not about right or wrong, but about doing it. This is a very important point in the trading market. How many people read the list correctly but did not make money, and how many people ran away after making a small profit after making the list correctly, thus missing the mighty big market behind. How many people have reached the stop loss set by themselves and constantly moved the stop loss or even removed the stop loss, causing the account to shrink by more than half after one or two orders. This is the problem of execution. What people say is often not done well. This execution ability can be cultivated, conditioned reflex to contact. I gave a suggestion to a friend before and it worked out really well
