I have suffered serious losses in futures trading. I am almost 40 years old and feel that I have lost my direction in life. What should I do?

Have you ever had the experience of making money?

What kind of market did you do when you made money?

Can you insist on only doing the market that makes money? ?

I used to be a very short-term trader, and my overnight operation methods were messy against the trend. Although a few days of short-term profits can be used to make up for the loss of a single order, overall the cycle does not make much money. Later, by chance, I participated in the fund company's trader assessment and passed the assessment under the company's strict regulations, and then achieved a steady growth in profits.

The company stipulated that the trading product was German index. I didn’t know what it was at the time, so I started trading directly.

I made more than 10,000 yuan on the first day of trading. I remember clearly that it was an upward trend and I immediately followed it when the market opened, and then exited the market after taking profits. But I am still relatively unfamiliar with this product. After a month of trading, I found that this product is very suitable for breakthrough trading. A small shock range is often accompanied by a larger breakthrough, and the stop loss for a breakthrough is very small. , the profit margin is large, which is in line with the principle of small losses and big profits.

In the following transactions, I will not start to operate if the market does not appear in a sideways range, because I cannot understand the market that is not a breakthrough, even if many large V-shaped reversals look very tempting. People, but that is not within the scope of my trading system, so I can only watch the market go by. Whenever I only trade according to the system, I almost always make money. Most of the losses are because I do not understand the market at that time and cannot bear the temptation of violent market fluctuations to enter the market. Trading at this time is no different from gambling. I make a lot of money and lose a lot. , and cannot be stable.

My trading signal now is the range that needs to be broken through. I will follow up immediately when I break through. If I withdraw my cost back to the divergence after entering the market, I will stop the loss and exit directly. Because the characteristic of a breakthrough is to instantaneously break away from costs to make profits. Once there is no instantaneous breakaway from costs, it is very likely to be a false breakthrough. This is also the only risk of breakthroughs. As long as the profit is instantaneous, you can hold the position and wait and see, wait for the market to continue to move, close the position and exit when the market reaches a high level and stops adjusting up and down. The fluctuation of intraday breakthrough is also limited, and it is not necessary to follow the daily market trend for a whole day, and you cannot enter the market. Just go for the daily line, and it will be easy to make a profit and recover the cost. You must clearly understand what money you are making. The breakthrough is to eat the body of the fish, not the head and tail.

Intraday breakthroughs do not happen every day. You need to wait for signals. If there is no signal, don’t operate. If there is a signal, don’t let it go.

Market selection is very important. It must be active, the trading volume is large enough, and the fluctuations are violent. This habit is also cyclical for each variety. Not every variety can be invested all year round, and all require a cycle of transformation. .

If you really want to make money, just trade the market within your system and nothing else. Although the market may not be very frequent and you may not make much, if you make a profit, you will save yourself a lot of losses. The market and capital curve will also move upward, and overall capital will continue to grow.

Refuse temptation and be consistent. This is currently my fundamental principle of making money.

Tell me about my experience! The following content is all based on my own personal experience, and any falsehoods will be totally rejected. I was born in Xiangyang, Hubei in 1980. I opened a factory in Dongguan in 2009 and it closed down in 2014. I owed hundreds of thousands to relatives and friends. I had 5 credit cards with a total debt of more than 600,000. I have completely given up on paying back my credit cards. I couldn't afford to pay it back (now the bank is blacklisted, and the high-speed rail is no longer available). At that time, I didn't even think about finding a job. I just wanted to pay off the debt as soon as I could get the money from business. I was so hot-headed that I borrowed money to continue doing business. I went to a food stall, worked as a lubricant agent, bought a second-hand rear eight-wheeler, and went to Shanxi coal mines to haul coal and made a loss. During this period, in order to make money quickly to pay off the debt, I accidentally joined two pyramid schemes, once to the 1040 Sunshine Project in Yunnan, and once to the 1040 Sunshine Project in Yunnan. Hong Kong Liangbisi. I have never sat down and calmly thought about whether I should find a job first. Old debts have not been paid yet and new debts have been added.

Now I'm fine. I've switched my career to being a sailor. I work three 8-hour shifts every day. I can finally calm down. I can earn more than 100,000 yuan a year and save part of it, waiting for a comeback! Anyone who wants to be a sailor can contact me! Let’s work together! (The difference between working on land and working as a seafarer is that with the same salary, you really can’t save money on land, but as a seafarer, you can save as much as you are paid, because as a seafarer, you only have to eat, drink, shit, and sleep. All food, clothing, housing and transportation are provided by the company for free)

I am also a person who has experienced countless pain and suffering. Fortunately, I survived, and I share some experiences with you, hoping to help you.

1. First calm down and think about a question, whether to leave the futures market. Leaving the market, living a good life and loving your family is also a good choice. If you are still not willing to give in and want to continue trading in the market, then continue reading.

2. Before continuing to trade, you must be mentally prepared. The first problem is that you will continue to face losses or even several liquidations; the second problem is that you may have experienced several liquidations. You still haven't learned how to make real profits. When the time comes, you will have no choice but to quit. Seeing this, if you decide to quit, it's still not too late. If you still want to continue trading, then read on.

3. Take care of family matters during transactions to ensure that nothing bothers you.

4. Prepare 100,000 yuan, divide it into three parts, and trade with one part first. If you can’t make money with the first part, never activate the second part. When the first part makes a loss and cannot open a position, Enable the second copy, and so on. In the process of trading, study the gains and losses with concentration until you actually enter the real trading palace and realize profits.
