“Only places where judgment cannot intrude were left.”

What had been breaking the trades wasn't the market.

It was always my own judgment.

I still feel like I can go further.

I feel like it’s about to rebound.

It feels like ending here would be a waste.

Everything was a “feeling.”

As long as there’s room for that “feeling” to intrude,

no matter how superb a method is, it will eventually crumble.

So I chose the opposite approach.

It’s not about how to win.

It’s about how to make it impossible to judge.

Make the structure such that you cannot choose.

Place yourself in a position where you cannot doubt.

If you break at the closing price, it’s over.

Fix only that.

Ignore the wicks.

Ignore even a momentary reversal.

Only look at confirmed facts.

Within those rules,

there can be no “just a little more.”

There is no room for expectations or fear.

No space for them to intrude.

Then trading becomes astonishingly quiet.

Even when you’re not doing anything,

wins can extend themselves.

But that isn’t the result of trying to extend them.

It’s a result of not finishing them.

When you try to end things, you break them.

If you fix the way you finish, the wins remain.

A flash of insight isn’t a tool to strengthen judgments.

It’s a structure where judgments cannot intrude.

Don’t entrust yourself to the market.

Eliminate your own intervention.

Only beyond that,

is there residual profit that can be replicated.

――

Next, I’ll write about how I entrusted that “way of finishing” to a machine.
