No matter what approach one is using (TA, FA, ...), to become a successful trader, she needs to have 大將之風. Let's talk about what the 大將之風 is. IMO, 大將之風 is about 穩 - 泰山崩於前而面不改色
One with 大將之風 has very stable mental state. She won't jump around because of a little small market moves. She won't go extremely happy, sad, mad because of the profit or loss of a trade. Everything is just the same old game, and everything is expected. That kind of mentality is 大將之風.作者: aimei 时间: 2011-6-8 19:40
大將之風 needs to have 大局觀 and need to be 穩 - You won't be "一涨就是新高,一跌就是千里之外"作者: snowrider 时间: 2011-6-13 15:38
In other words, the big picture won't be changed by a small rally in the 5-minute chart.作者: snowrider 时间: 2011-6-15 12:59

Why did I say that a real general needed to have "大局觀"?
"大局觀" is to understand the whole picture - which is the trend.
"大局觀" is a clear 行情觀 about the trend.
Just ask a 3-year-old, s/he will tell you the market *is going* up or down. What I mean by *is going* is the trend. Don't trade against the trend.作者: snowrider 时间: 2011-6-15 13:12
鳳凰 needs 浴火 then 重生
It takes many wipe-outs to make a good trader. Most people are lucky because they don't trade FX or futures. The worst scenario is be a truely long term investor (share holder forever) - e.g., FRE or FNM's share holders. In that care, one will never learned the lesson.
