I’ve been pondering the matter of trading for a long time, and I’ve been stuck on the same issue… how to stay calm in the market. Frankly, the problems I encounter are basically two extremes: one is rushing to close positions at the slightest profit, fearing to let the gains slip away, and as a result, missing out on bigger upward moves; the other is the opposite, watching the fluctuations with no confidence, only daring to take tiny positions, and still hesitating when placing orders at extreme levels. What’s even more painful is that sometimes I get easily overwhelmed by market FOMO emotions, getting excited and opening positions recklessly, only to end up losing a lot. This bad habit keeps messing with me, and I really have no good solutions now. I feel that mindset and discipline are the key factors determining whether you can survive in this market. Technical analysis alone isn’t enough; the crucial thing is to establish a stable trading system and psychological resilience. Does anyone have tips to break through this?

Bro, I really relate to this issue. Basically, it's a constant tug-of-war between greed and fear. Sometimes I think about earning a million a month, and other times I get so scared I can't act. I think the key is to turn trading into a mechanical process, so emotions don't influence decisions. Otherwise, no matter how smart you are, it's all in vain.

To be honest, this is my blood and tears story. In the early days, I was taught a hard lesson by the market through all-in bets... Only now do I realize that discipline is truly more valuable than anything else.

Bro, you're so right. I have the same problem... Cut early, die early; cut late, get stuck. None of them are comfortable, haha. How to fix it? Honestly, set your take profit and stop loss and don't touch it. Just let the robot do its thing.

Oh, this is exactly who I was three years ago, it's like looking in a mirror... I did suffer some losses during early trading, but I later realized that I just had to hold on tightly and not let go.
