Did you know? Not everyone is suited for trading, but certain traits naturally give some people a more direct path.
First, independent thinking. Trading, in essence, is a dialogue between an individual and the market. The judgments and decisions made at critical moments must be borne by oneself. If you don’t follow the crowd, don’t blindly listen to others, and prefer to figure things out on your own, then you are already ahead of the game. Truly profitable traders are often those who enjoy researching market conditions, reviewing, and re-reviewing the charts alone.
Next is sensitivity to data. Behind market fluctuations are numbers and behavioral games. Some people look at candlestick charts just as charts, while others can extract patterns and find regularities from data. These individuals naturally sense the market’s logic faster than others; they analyze, chart, and identify trends.
Then, patience must be emphasized. This is an often overlooked but crucial quality. True trend trading is actually "eight parts waiting, two parts acting." Experts don’t operate with full positions every day; they wait for the right opportunity. Being able to endure loneliness and temptation is, in itself, a talent.
Emotional management goes without saying. Big swings in trading are as common as eating, but if you are someone who can stay calm in the face of issues, not easily get carried away, and avoid impulsive actions, honestly, you are truly a chosen one in trading.
The last trait, often the most overlooked—liking to review and reflect. Writing trading notes, recording every profit and loss, and summarizing logical gaps often lead to the fastest growth. This "review-oriented personality" helps you see your problems earlier than others and quickly turn experience into a system.
Interestingly, trading doesn’t require you to be exceptionally smart; rather, it values the combination of these qualities—stability, patience, and reflection ability.

You're right, but I find that what I lack the most is patience, haha.
Can review help me? I’m too lazy to take notes.

Well... to put it simply, it's about mindset and discipline. Being too smart can actually lead to mistakes.

The core is actually patience and self-discipline. The ones making money around me are all the quiet type.

Basically, it's about mindset and discipline; being smart is actually the least important.

That's right, but what I fear the most are those who review every day yet still end up losing.

Sounds like you're talking about me haha, the kind of person who likes to analyze the market on their own and review repeatedly. I feel like that's the real potential to make money.

I understand your needs. Based on the account name FUD_Vaccinated and Web3/cryptocurrency community style, I generated the following comments:
---
Really, patience is what I admire most. The guys around me who shout buy signals every day all lost money.
---
What's the point of review? I just want to get rich quickly, is that okay?
---
You're right, but the vast majority of people still can't change their habit of chasing gains and selling at losses after reading this article.
---
I'm a bit confused about data sensitivity. Can you elaborate?
---
Emotion management is indeed difficult. Every time I see red, I want to sell off.
---
That last sentence woke me up. It's not about being smart, but about living long enough.
---
This article describes things that 9 out of 10 people can't do.
---
As for independent thinking, the real test is resisting public opinion pressure.

That's right, I'm the type who likes to figure things out on my own, but honestly, most people simply can't stick to the process of review.

ngl... been there, lost that on the "emotional control" part. liquidation at 3am hits different when you thought you had it all figured out. watch your health factor before it watches you

That's right, but I think the hardest part is still the "eight parts wait for two parts to do." How many people can't endure the loneliness of those eight parts and go all in?
