14 trades/day is quite a lot. I am also struggling with overtrading. Everyday I can see 2-3 good trades afterwards.

Live trades?

It helps to understand the root cause. Fixing the problem consistently is the hard part.

Battle of left brain vs. right brain.

Darn, even a trading forum gets so emotional and heated. No wonder in the real market most people lose. LOL I have learned to bail out if I am losing for more than 5 minutes (using 5-min bar chart), no matter what I think or I am right or wrong. No questions asked. Keep calm and proceed.

I think trading is very simple in theory but rather hard in practice and master, like golfing and some other sports.

Trade what you see PA & trend (minus market tricks/traps), not what you think and predict.

Risk management is huge in trading but I think there are other edges. So many great traders didn’t/don’t use the same edge.

You named all the mistakes noobs make. I have done them all and for multiple occasions.

Well when you’re technically behind so much all you can do in the beginning is copying others. After more development and advancement you can start innovating again. In fact, China’s innovation flourished in the past decades, such as 5G technology from Huawei, drones from DJI and the whole EV...

I think both of you have a point or two. Around 30 years ago I came to the US after graduating from college in China, so I have been living in the western world, namely the USA, for most of my adult life. What do I feel about the current situation between the US and China? A quite mixed view...

My experience has been it’s harder to ride a trend than scalp or do short term momentum trades during day trading. You probably will be stopped out 90% of the time unless your stop is wide, which would result in significant losses after a few wrong trades. On the other hand, for beginners it’s...

I would say that’s for the mutual benefit. No one is an altruist in this world. Another political reason was the US wanted ally with China to counter Soviet Union.

So your first day going live was green? Not bad!
