It was this unforgettable failure that became a turning point in his trading career. "After I calmed down, I regarded this time as the most expensive lesson. Now every time I want to mess up, I will think of that time."

Decision-making logic: Look at the pictures, risk control comes first

Today, Zhang Zhe has built a trading system with technical analysis as the core and strict risk control as the bottom line.

In his trading decisions, technical analysis accounts for 60% of the dominance. "I mainly look at pictures to speak." Price action and multi-period trend tracking are his main tools. Four months ago, he had just made an important upgrade to the system, adding shock filtering, which "reduces a lot of false signals." In the future, he also plans to automatically adjust positions based on market fluctuations.

Fundamental analysis accounts for 30%, mainly used for "lightning protection"; while intuition and experience account for only 10%, "just to help confirm".

Zhang Zhe has almost strict control standards for risks. Assuming that the total risk he can bear is 100 points, he only takes up "2 points" per trade on average. "If you lose 10 times, you will only lose 10-20 points, and your account will not die." It is this belief in "living long" that supports his understanding of risks.

Execution discipline: besides luck, there is only strategy

How to eliminate the luck factor in trading? Zhang Zhe’s answer is concise and powerful: “Every transaction only takes a small risk+ A lot of backtesting + Daily review. Luck is there in the short term, but in the long term what remains is the strategy itself. "

He insists on making a trading plan every day, reading it over before opening, making no random changes during trading, and reviewing the trading after closing to check for any foul play. This almost rigid execution allows him to remain calm during trading.

Faced with profit retracement, his handling method also reflects discipline: "First move the stop loss to capital preservation or lock part of the profit, then reduce the position in batches, and follow the original plan for the rest. Don’t be greedy, don’t spit back everything you earn. "

Talk about volatility: Use ATR to measure the pulse of the market

Zhang Zhe has his own understanding of market volatility. He does not prefer a market that is too calm or too violent, but prefers an environment with "moderate volatility and clear trends." "If the fluctuation is too small, you will not make money, and if the fluctuation is too big, you will be swept away." ”

He uses ATR (average true range) to measure market fluctuations and determines position size accordingly. This ability to quantify subjective feelings as a trading basis is a key step in his move from liquidation to stability.

For newcomers Advice: Don’t rush to make big money

Looking back on his own growth, Zhang Zhe believes that the biggest gain from taking the EagleTrader exam is “forcing myself to review the rules and mentality again, and practicing execution under simulated pressure, which will be very helpful for future real trading. "

For new traders who have just signed up or are preparing to take the exam, he shared his experience:

"Don't rush to make big money, learn not to blow up your position first. If you control the risk of every transaction and review the trade every day, you will live longer in trading than anyone else. Hold on, let's work hard together!"

The road to trading is long and difficult, but success is coming. Zhang Zhe's story tells us that long-term stable profits never rely on luck, but on strict rules, firm execution and continuous optimization strategies.

For everyone who sticks to the road of trading, the only way is to stick to it. Only by staying true to your original intention, controlling risks, and respecting the market can you stand firm in the wave and achieve your trading goals step by step. Zhang Zhe will also use this examination as a new starting point, use part-time work as a transition, move forward steadily, and continue to write his own chapter of growth on the road of trading practice.
