What exactly is the key to short-term trading? Many people think it's speed and luck, but they're all wrong. The core competitiveness boils down to two words: comprehension and self-discipline.

Once the market shows a trend, things are actually very simple—just follow the direction. But as soon as the market enters a consolidation phase, the death trap for most accounts begins. Do you know? Many people's losses stem from a single habit: can't resist placing orders.

They treat sideways movement as an opportunity, mistake market noise for trading signals, and the more chaotic the market, the itchier their hands become. The result is that the more actively they trade, the faster their accounts lose. This isn't the market tricking you; frankly, you're just fighting against it.

I've also experienced several major drawdowns. The only rule that has kept me alive until now is: if I can't see the clear direction, I don't move. It sounds simple, but it's really hard to do. Because before a trend appears, every order you place is essentially a gamble. But once the trend is clear, trading becomes much easier.

The market never rushes you to enter; it only punishes those who act recklessly. Moving slowly is really okay—what's most dangerous is chaos. When the rhythm becomes clear and the direction is obvious, you'll find that making money isn't that complicated.

At its core, trading isn't about who is faster, but about who is steadier and who can wait. I don't talk about get-rich-quick myths; I only share what can help people stay at the table for the long haul. Want to go further? The choice is entirely in your hands.
