The direction judgment is fine, but why does it start losing immediately after opening a position? This is outrageous. It seems that the real difficulty lies not in analysis, but in the coordination of execution and mindset. With the same signals, some make money while others lose, so what exactly is the difference?

Listen, the idea that analyzing correctly can actually lead to losing money is really incredible; I've been scammed too. --- Maybe the problem isn't the signal at all, but simply setting stop-losses too tight. --- The key is still mindset. Some people can hold onto the same position, while others get scared and run away. --- That's why many people prefer to lower leverage even if it means earning less, because they can't handle the volatility. --- Opening a position and then it drops? Either you chose the wrong time window, or the position size was too large. --- Honestly, it's all about execution. Knowing and doing are completely different. --- I think it's still a lack of mental preparation; I panic as soon as I see a drop. --- With the same signal, profits and losses vary greatly; 99% of the time, it's due to poor position management. --- This feeling is so deep—sometimes the judgment is right, but the result is a margin call. I'm convinced.

Mindset is something that's easier to talk about than to practice.

Opening a position without properly setting stop-losses, serves you right

Mindset and execution really are the difference between heaven and hell; even if the analysis is correct, it's all for nothing.

Mindset is really an invisible killer. I've seen too many brothers who still lose money despite analyzing perfect results.

Data shows that 90% of retail investors fail at this step; no matter how good their mindset is, it's useless. Ironically, thinking you're on the right track equals winning, but that logic is absurd.

Bro, what you're saying is right, but it's useless. I totally understand the feeling of a bloodbath right after opening a position.

Almost forgot the crucial step of stop-loss; a slightly wrong entry timing can ruin the entire strategy.

Mindset is really a killer; I've also experienced situations where opening a position leads to a blow-up.
