Is the market fluctuating? But I can't stay idle, frequently entering and exiting, and ending up more and more亏损. When the real trend arrives, I hesitate to take positions, fearing a pullback and rushing to stop-loss, still missing the opportunity. In the end, I just watch others eat meat while I can only drink soup.

This is the true portrayal of many traders: lacking patience, overtrading, hesitating when it's time to act, and itching to move when it's better to stay still. The market is like a psychological game, testing not the trend itself, but whether you can control yourself.

Oh, you're talking about me. The late-stage itchiness patient reporting in. That frequent operation really hit the sore spot. Luckily, I didn't even have my underwear left. That's right, the ones who really make money are never those who just spot the trend, but those who can endure the longest. When I finally train my mind to be as calm as water, my account will probably be fully revived too.

Oh no, isn't this just me? It's always like this. Being impulsive is really the number one killer in trading, it's frustrating. You're so right, the key is self-control. I need to reflect on this. That part about frequent operations really hit me hard. Actually, it's just that my mindset isn't well-trained; technique is secondary. Why do I feel like I'm looking in a mirror...

Haha, isn't this just me? The typical impulsiveness, most likely to get caught in a volatile market. I've already been burned by frequent trading before, now I just want to hold back and wait for the big trend. Really, mental preparation is even harder than technical analysis. It sounds simple, but actually doing it is deadly. Can I finally learn to wait this time? I'll just put my phone aside first.

I'll just say it, this paragraph really hit home for me. I've tried the frequent trading approach, and it was a costly lesson. When a real big market trend arrives, I get scared and hold back, which is really absurd.
