Today's trading results are 4:6, which is indeed embarrassing. Four consecutive double bets all hit stop loss, and two equal bets also couldn't hold.
Someone asked why I lost money, and I directly said—it's because I haven't changed my approach. Even if I switch those positions to flat bets, I would still enter the market. These losses were bound to happen. When doubling down in extreme market conditions, the losses can be frighteningly large, and I only truly realized this later.
Regarding the doubling strategy, the initial plan was to start with 5U, and after five consecutive losses, lose 155U. At that time, I thought my trading system was particularly suitable for doubling down. But in actual operation, I found that followers' capital wasn't sufficient, and combined with today's black swan market event, I need to make adjustments—note, it's an adjustment to the execution method, not a problem with the strategy itself.
The improvement plan is simple: only do two double bets, and stop after the third. When extreme market conditions occur, there are often whipsaw trades, and this setup can effectively reduce such risks.
To everyone who lost money following today, I sincerely apologize. Seeing your accounts lose value makes me feel uncomfortable too. Long-time followers trust me 100%, and breaking that trust is my responsibility.
As for the sarcastic voices, I want to say—pressure from the live stream? Without this pressure, how would the host iterate? Without doubts and criticism, where would continuous progress come from? A bit more pressure is good for everyone.
One last thing: I may not be the strongest person, but I have innate confidence in my abilities. As long as I want to do it, nothing is impossible. This failure is just a phase, and I will continue to adjust my strategy and refine risk management.

Doubling down, this thing really turns into a hell mode the moment the market flips. I knew I was about to break my defense the moment the black swan hit and the order was killed.
Losing six trades in a row and still arguing that "the strategy is fine"? Bro, you must be a bit overconfident... but I have to say, admitting a mistake with a decent attitude.
Wait, changing to only doing two trades with doubling down to avoid extreme market conditions? This logic is a bit magical, feels like you're just betting that the market won't kill three times in a row, right?

Doubling down is truly a double-edged sword. In extreme market conditions, it can directly blow up your account. Only by experiencing losses like this can you understand.

A 4:6 record is indeed a bit uncomfortable, but on the other hand, being able to admit mistakes and adjust strategies so quickly shows some capability.
---
Black swan events are really unpredictable; it all depends on how you survive and crawl out from them.
---
I guess many people’s moods have exploded with this copy trading wave. Apologies might still be somewhat helpful.
---
A five-order doubling down resulted in a direct loss of 155U... Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle. No wonder they changed to a two-order stop-loss.
---
Pressure is a valid point; no one picking faults makes it easier to feel good about oneself, but in the end, you still suffer losses.
---
This adjustment to only do two trades is still timely, but the key is whether you can really stabilize afterward.

Confidence is a good thing, but sometimes the trading market just needs a few lessons to grow. There’s nothing to be ashamed of.

From a technical perspective, the issue with this doubling scheme is not in the logic but in the unpredictability of black swan events. Data shows that there is indeed a probability of stopping loss after five consecutive trades, and it is worth noting that adjusting the limit to two trades has some empirical basis.

The black swan is back again. The biggest fear when doubling down is this—it's a direct market explosion.
