description: "The highest realm of trading, in the end, comes down to two words: restraint.Restrain the impulse to chase rallies, restrain the fantasy of bottom-fishing, restrain the addiction to frequent trading, and restrain the vanity of comparing oneself with others.This market will never lack opportunities, but your bullets are always limited. Save every bullet for that one shot where you are most certain and confident. For the rest of the time, wait peacefully. If you can't get it, don't lose money; only reckless shooting will truly cause harm.Don't delude yourself into thinking you can eat up every wave of the market. That's not skill; that's greed. You only need to enjoy the portion that belongs to you. Eat your fill and leave; let others fight over the remaining meat.Cut losses decisively, decisively enough to hesitate not at all. Hold profits firmly, firmly enough to stand immovable.Pitifully, most people are exactly the opposite: they stubbornly hold onto losing positions when they lose, and panic-sell when they gain. In the end, their accounts are filled with trapped positions.True trading is a battle against one's own greed and fear. Win this battlefield, and you win the market."
