This year's trading journey, to be honest, hasn't been easy. The market fluctuates wildly—sometimes surging, sometimes crashing. The plans I made are often shattered by market volatility every few days, and the time and effort I投入 end up yielding less than expected. Sometimes, even the most cautious positions can't avoid a pullback; just when I see a profit, it gets hammered back down. This repetitive struggle has deeply taught me what "patience is valuable" and "emotions are the enemy of trading." But it's not fair to say I gained nothing—those late-night K-line reviews, the decisive moments to cut losses, and the constant questioning of market laws—all silently lay the foundation for myself. The market is always there; real progress is sometimes invisible and intangible: more respect for risks, more doubt about my strategies, and greater resolve in facing volatility. The biggest gain this year is actually this calm and clear understanding. The road of trading is still long—let's encourage each other!

Market trends, you know, are really a big daddy; you can't avoid them no matter what.
This year, I've been hit many times too. Sometimes I just want to give up... But in the end, I realize that losses are just tuition fees.
The hardest part is stopping the loss, but once you get through it, you'll understand why it's called stopping loss rather than taking profit.

The moments of reflection in the middle of the night do indeed change a person, but honestly, the lessons learned from losing money are more profound than those from making money.
The few times I set stop-losses correctly saved me, but other times I was still dominated a bit too harshly by emotions.
The biggest feeling this year is that the market always wins; we need to learn to coexist with it rather than oppose it.
That feeling of unrealized gains being crushed back... I understand, I really understand.
What’s there to motivate each other? I still have to keep paying my tuition fees.

The market is just repeatedly teaching me how to be a person. The unrealized gains are being wiped out again, and I'm really exhausted.
This wave truly made me realize what it means for emotions to be a poison. The decision to cut losses is worth much more than the gains themselves.
That's right, unseen progress is true progress. Once you understand the importance of respecting the market, you'll start to profit.

The market is so chaotic and exhausting, I feel tired just watching... But on the other hand, the things I learn from losing money are definitely more than when I make money.
To be honest, this year I feel like I've been repeatedly educated by the market. The moment I cut losses is especially painful.
Everyone has experienced the feeling of floating profits being wiped out; the key is how to adjust your mindset afterward.
It's really just paying tuition. It's a bit expensive, but it has definitely broadened my horizons.
Emotions are the biggest enemy in trading, I truly understand this... I'm still learning this lesson.
Every time I review the K-line, I reflect on what I did wrong. Slowly, I believe I'll find the rhythm.
Discipline is really valuable; I'll talk about it again once I cultivate it myself.
It's quite eye-opening, especially that part about "doubting your own strategy"—that's true progress.
