The process of changing trading mindsets
1. When you first startedtrading, you wereworried that the transaction wouldmake a loss. To avoid this you should stop loss immediately,once each transaction losses up to 5% of the total capital you invested.
2. With stop-loss strategy, you won'thave to worry about making loss, but instead you should worry about you couldn'tmake profits by trading. Because after you continuedto stop losses for about seven or eight times, your original capitalwouldalso suffer a lot.
To solve thisproblem, you should improve the success rate of trading, that's 交易心态 say you couldfind the critical turning point of the volatility. This is the core of all technical analyses. Though each person has different method, his/hersuccess rate will behigher if his/her is good at catching turning points.
3. If you improved the success rate of trading, then you don't worry about continuous stop-loss. Instead you startedworrying about your profits. The cost of a stop-loss strategy is higher than the theoretical calculation, so if the profit is not enough to cover the loss, or if the profit is small, you couldn'交易心态 tbe sure whetheryou can make a long-term profit. If you 交易心态 couldcatch the big fluctuationsand enlarge your profits, then the small stop loss couldn't hurt much.
4. Learn to wait. After seizingsome opportunities among big fluctuations, you were afraid that during the waiting period, your profits will be eroded.
These loss-making transactions not only affectedthe mood, but also were a 交易心态 waste of time, having negative impact on the overall effectiveness of investing.
Countermeasures: when the profitableposition fell back near thebuying price, sell it.
5. You avoided some transactions to lose, while you also missed opportunities becasue of trying to keep balance. Therefore, you started to researchstop loss points, as well as to identify conditions when you could wait longer even if the profits turned to loss.
6. Most specific problems solved, the next worryfor you was about the efficiency and durability of your trading methods/frames. You could check your methods through simulated trading whether your implementation will be disturbed by markets.
7. You finally have formed a stable investing operation system. The total investing performances are positive and you don't take one single trading result seriously, being confident in your overall investing strategies.
But there will bestill new problems, oneworry is that once the nature of the market has changed, resulting in stock changes, the system suddenly failed to work.
To this problem, there is no sure measure but to respect the market, maintain the fear toward the market, stay alert to any changes 交易心态 and be prepared to adjust your methods/strategiesall the time.

有人说,在交易中心态占了75%,有的说80%,又有的说85%。尽管说的比例不一致,但是都说明一个情况:交易中,心态非常重要,甚至比技术分析等重要得多。
在我刚接触交易的那段时间,技术上已经更进一步,交易系统也逐渐成形,却也是经常亏钱。当时一直认为是技术还不过关,交易系统设置的条件还不够成熟,导致经常出现亏损,或者出现亏损但又未到止损的时候就手动平仓,却没有注意到可能是自己心态出现问题,所以心态问题往往都具有隐蔽性。
针对交易心理的问题,我还专门进修心理学以研究心态的不同对于交易行为的影响,后来发现很多时候其实都是情绪影响了自己的行为,我们经常说的心态问题,就是说当出现情绪的时候造成行为上的负面影响。比如我们亏钱的时候,可能一开始只是会“哎呀,亏了,下一笔要努力”,再次亏损的时候可能会觉得是不是自己的交易技术出问题或者是当天的行情不太适合做单,而多次亏损之后心中的恐惧越来越大了。这时候我们第一步应该等待冷静下来之后,问问自己在恐惧什么,如果觉得“恐惧”这个字眼太严重的话,可以问自己在害怕什么,这一步里面最重要的是对自己诚实,因为只有对自己诚实,才能找到问题的根源。
我说的例子只是凤毛麟角,而交易者的真实案例比我说的还要丰富和精彩,最重要的是一定要搞懂当出现情绪的时候到底在害怕什么,你害怕的不是一个数字或者金钱本身,而是那一笔交易资金背后所隐藏的意义。当知道自己害怕的是什么,你就能够采取方法避免因为交易资金损失而造成的情绪起伏了。要做到的效果就是即使亏损了,依然不会影响你的婚房、生活、贷款等,这样你就能最大限度避免因为账户的大幅涨跌所造成的情绪起伏,从而令你的交易行为更加理性。因为只有在这个情况下,你才能去探讨交易技术的进步和交易系统的完善,不然再完美的技术都好,心态崩了啥都白搭。
另一方面,交易出现亏损,与自己当初的设想也可能差好远,造成心理上的落差。比如我预计自己通过交易在一段时间里面能够盈利多少钱,而真正操作下来却亏得一塌糊涂。这样会带来巨大的失落感,觉得自己是不是做什么都做不好,交易这条路是不是不适合自己,还有各种各样的想法,最终会试图在之后的交易操作上证明自己并不是那么差。然而这时候的操作也已经没有理性可言,结果肯定也是不断亏钱的。
