Isn't trading cognition just the cognition of trading? Everyone is different, so it's hard to say exactly what these cognitions are.

Cognition is a process. When you first come into contact with trading, it can be said to be a blank sheet of paper and you don’t understand anything. If you trade directly, there will be a result: a big loss and a liquidation, or a sudden profit and then a loss. In fact, it is a loss in the end.

The second stage is when you start to really learn to trade. At this time, you think that trading needs to learn a lot of knowledge and technology, so you start reading books, looking for indicators, templates, strategies or EA. Anyway, you want to know everything about trading. But no matter how much you learn, how many indicators and techniques you acquire, it seems that you still cannot make stable profits.

The third stage is to realize that the market is actually a game of probability. After understanding this, you will no longer worry about which technologies are easy to use and which strategies can perfectly adapt to the market (which does not exist), but you know that it is just a probability. You no longer insist on making money on every order, but just know that the profit will eventually be greater than the loss.

The last stage is the mentality and money management stage. When you understand the operating laws of this market, you will realize that only by maintaining a good attitude and prudent capital management can you ultimately succeed.

A virtuous circle is:

Confidence --- self-discipline --- profit --- pride --- self-confidence

The vicious circle is:

Profit---violation of strategy---loss---frustration (emotional loss)---big loss

Therefore, after the above four stages, if we can move towards a virtuous circle, then we can gain a foothold in this market.

Cognition is the foundation. If the cognition is improved, the transaction will get twice the result with half the effort, and making money is a certainty.

On the contrary, the cognitive level has been unable to improve, making money is shit luck, and being harvested is a matter of time.

The best way to improve your cognitive level is to write down your thoughts and then practice them.

The fastest way is to be guided by a famous teacher. You can avoid the pits he stepped on and avoid many detours.

Of course, self-enlightenment is also possible, but the process of self-enlightenment is easy to go crazy. Because self-awareness is easy to misinterpret the words of the predecessors.

In the first few years of trading, I was also fortunate to read all the articles written by an expert. I thought I understood all of his content. It was not until I communicated with him face to face many years later that I realized that I had misunderstood a lot of his things.

Conceit makes people stand still, and humility makes people progress.

Cognition refers to your ability to understand this matter, and transaction cognition refers to your understanding of transactions.

This is how the blind feel the elephant, and the depth of understanding of each person will be different. The so-called those who seek great things do not seek out others. Now more than 90% of people in this market cannot make stable profits. If you follow these people in the same circle, listen to it every day. If they have a point of view, then you will slowly accept what they pass on to you. These are their cognitions, and you will gradually be classified into one category.

Let me tell you a fact. I started teaching in 2017. At the beginning, I built a large group and often did some free public class content. The people in the group were very active. Later, I started to do some paid training. The purpose of the training is, I just want to cultivate some talents and keep them for future use, including some talents that have been selected to work with the team. Of course, this is also a two-way choice. When you learn to be capable, I choose you, and you can do the same Choose me, the way is the same, we can work together, the topic is a bit off, let's get back to the topic. Because the content of the internal training is very in-depth, and the cognitive understanding of each method will be improved, so there is a problem. The gap between the internal training people and the public teaching students has gradually developed, and the gap is still very large. At the beginning, there will be a phenomenon that people who have learned a lot are unwilling to communicate with beginners, because beginners do not understand or understand a lot of things they say, and they are completely clueless. Finally, it gradually evolved into two Circles, internal trainers communicate in one circle of their own, and outsiders communicate in another circle. Internal trainers occasionally come out to post their results and shout lists, and they will be sought after, and they will enjoy this feeling very much. The same group of people at the beginning gradually divided into two factions because they were exposed to different ideas. This is the impact of awareness. This is also a social phenomenon. People with different cognitions cannot reach a consensus on the same issue. One feels that he is talking about the piano, and the other feels that he is bragging. If he talks too much, he will argue with each other, which is very boring. up

What does the cognition of trading specifically include, first of all, the cognition of the object of your transaction, and secondly, the things that affect the transaction object, (for example, if you trade gold, you must first understand the properties of gold itself, and then understand the factors that affect the price of gold) Then there is the concept of the trading system, which is more complicated. Most of the differences are here. Everyone’s trading philosophy is different, and they will have different opinions. The current trading methods are varied, and various indicators are added. There are too many, and the most prone to problems is the volatile market. You are bullish, he is bearish, and the two of them have been fighting for a day. In the end, both of them are right, and they both make money. This happens all the time. For these people, what I also say is, stick to your own things, leave right and wrong to the market, and don’t need to wait for others’ approval
