In a bull market, some people make a fortune, only to turn around and find others losing everything. The market looks the same, so why are the outcomes so different?
Honestly, no matter how brilliant others' success stories are, they can't change the wounds in your account. Likewise, the pitfalls others have stepped into, you may not be able to avoid.
When faced with stubborn trends, some choose to tough it out, while others flee in haste. In simple, one-sided markets, some still cut losses. You see, making money and losing money are never determined solely by the market.
Perseverance requires all your strength, but giving up only takes a second. That's why you can see the numb faces of workers everywhere, while those who truly accumulate wealth are always a minority.
Everyone has the right to choose how to live. Some decide to fight fiercely, while others are nailed to the spot by fear, spending their lives holding onto a stable but suffocating job.
What kind of person will you ultimately become? Honestly, you'll only see clearly in that final moment. But every choice you make now is quietly writing your answer.

That's right, mindset and execution really can determine everything. Someone around me in the same market cycle went from making a fortune to getting liquidated; the difference was in that split-second decision.

That's true, but the group of people who actually make money probably also endure a lot of psychological torment.

It's quite revealing, but this really is a mindset issue. With the same trend, some people can analyze the candlesticks and see patterns, while others just chase the highs and sell the lows.

Being ruthless is ruthless, but how many can truly stay calm and steady? I think most only realize what regret means when they're cutting their losses.

Damn, that hit too close to home. My account is literally a living example of the opposite.

You're right, mindset really determines everything... But I still think luck has to play a part too. Sometimes, no matter how persistent you are, it's all in vain.
