@samuraipips358 Most if not all of these core issues can be mitigated through solid back tests that will reveal all required answers.
English

You might be told to reduce your position size if you're scared, but the cause of your fear lies elsewhere.
The real causes of your fear are:
・You are not confident whether your system (strategy) has a statistical edge.
・You do not grasp your strategy's performance.
・Because you do not know its performance, you do not know the appropriate position size to safely execute the strategy over the long term.
・You do not understand how long-term consistency leads to success.
...and so on.
Conversely, if these issues are resolved, you will naturally be able to trade with an appropriate position size and a long-term perspective.
In this state, you do not feel fear over the result of any single trade, and this is not because your position size became smaller, but because the root cause was resolved, and the smaller position size is merely a byproduct of that correct understanding.

@M3hatN Probably a conspiracy involving the elite cabal, as always.
English

@_fx_speculator Yes, I was just joking about the absurdity of it all. Why maps have not changed yet is beyond me.
English


@M3hatN Countries near the equator, on the other hand, are shown as smaller than their actual size.
English

@M3hatN Countries near the poles often appear larger on standard maps like the Mercator projection because these maps are designed to accurately represent angles and shapes at the equator, which leads to distortion at higher latitudes.

@samuraipips358 You're really levelling up on your level of English Yumi-san. Great job!

How to deal with the urge for "improvement":
・Impose a period on yourself (minimum 6 months to 1 year) where you do not change the rules
・In your trading journal, record rule adherence rate, your inner voice during trades, and what you were thinking, rather than results
・Reframe losing streaks and drawdowns not as a "test of the system" but as a "test of your own consistency"
・When you feel the urge for "improvement", don't act on it immediately; instead, record it and save it as material for future backtesting consideration
Through your consistency, or lack thereof, the market asks you how well you understand trading itself, how well you understand how probability works, how well you understand the trader's real job, whether you prepared thoroughly, and how much confidence you have rooted in what size of sample size.
Let's stop making improvements based on small sample sizes.
It's an endless swamp.

@samuraipips358 "Think hard about how you can trust the long-term edge of your rules and what you need to do to get there."
BACKTEST everyday until your eyes and wrist hurt. Result? Confidence in your system.
Confidence = Trust
English

Traders who struggle to stick to their rules are essentially saying they "don’t trust their own rules."
If you can’t believe that "following your rules through wins and losses will ultimately leave you with a profit," you’ll always be swayed by short-term results instead of staying disciplined.
Think hard about how you can trust the long-term edge of your rules and what you need to do to get there.
Good night😴

@samuraipips358 "In reality, the task of "mindlessly repeating predetermined actions" tests the purity of your belief more than your knowledge."
I don't think your typical trading guru on X is going to like hearing this simplified truth.
English

5/5
Trade according to your rules.
Repeat "simple things simply" consistently, over the long term.
How deeply you can believe and execute this "simple action" determines your strength as a trader.
It's not a game of wins and losses, but a game of probabilities.
The only thing you must do is "correctly repeat the correct rules".
When you deeply believe this simple truth, trading will suddenly become calm and clear.

Constantly changing your trading strategy is like continuously changing your destination while sailing.
Every time you change your method, your way of viewing charts will completely reset, and you'll start over again.
It's only by sticking to a consistent method that your trading becomes refined.
A ship without a fixed destination will never arrive anywhere.

@samuraipips358 Lots of truth in this thread. Thanks Yumi-san for being the mature trader who is trying to disseminate much needed facts in this industry.
English

5/5
Trading is difficult, and most traders are endlessly swayed by randomness, caught up in the “game of winning and losing.”
Only a very few can break out of that.
However, in order to succeed in this world of uncertainty, there is no other way but to internalize and embody probabilistic thinking, and that is a dull, incredibly time-consuming, and grueling path.
What I share day by day is not about flashy wins, losses, or results.
I do not expect it to be accepted by everyone, but I hope it will reach and be useful to those who are at the stage where they truly need it.

@samuraipips358 To make it easier to implement what you've just said Yumi-san, less discretion and more mechanical approach is required. It also makes your strategy much easier and efficient to backtest.
English

If you don’t know the timing to enter, think in terms of “conditions” instead of “timing.”
Entry should not be based on “it looks like it’s about to go up” or “it should move this way next,” but on “the rules of the system are met.”
For example, something like “at a pullback buying point on a higher timeframe, the price tested a clear support line twice on a lower timeframe but failed to break it, and based on the fact that many traders refused to trade below that support line, a stop loss is set just below the support line, and entry is made when the recent high is broken.”
In this way, incorporate your market perspective directly into your rules.
English

5/5
No matter how excellent a strategy you have or how closely you follow its rules, if you are immature, the reason your strategy performs poorly is precisely because your immaturity causes you to abandon it when its performance is at its worst.
The true performance of that strategy will only appear far, far later in the future than you imagine.
Consistency and sample size are essential to activate probability and extract the edge from your strategy.
And consistency is most necessary precisely during losing streaks or when your equity isn’t growing.
During inevitable losing streaks, you absolutely must maintain your rules no matter what.
At that point, you are tested on whether you truly have confidence, based on a large sample size, that your strategy has an edge and that you will ultimately remain profitable despite experiencing losing streaks while following your rules.
In other words, you are tested on whether you have acquired probabilistic thinking, whether you have thoroughly prepared based on probabilistic thinking, and whether you have truly become a ”trader” in the genuine sense.
