Learn from the stock investments that a mommy investor saved 100 million yen during maternity leave: the ultimate secret to becoming “absolutely able to wait.”
Hello, I’m oukanoakari (All-Plexible/Almighty) ✨
In the world of FX, aren’t you tired of sticking to the charts every day, jumping in when you think “Now is the time!” only to get hunted, and exhausted from chasing the Holy Grail?
“My mindset wobbles and I can’t follow the rules…”, “My over-trading habit won’t fade…”
If you’re 고민 small like that, today’s article is for you?
Actually, I myself tend to be a perfectionist in trading…? I believed too much in my technical analysis, thinking “It should rebound here!”which sometimes caused me to delay cutting losses— a painful mistake I’ve experienced many times in the past?
Today, from a YouTube video I recently watched (interview with Choru-ko, a mom stock investor who earned 100 million yen while on maternity leave ✨), I extracted three powerful insights that directly apply to FX trading?
It’s about stock day trading, but if you translate this to 【FX 1-minute scalping/day trading】, your view becomes incredibly clear?
Come on, let’s stop turning the market into a casino ???? Let’s unravel together the tips to face the market honestly! ??
? 1. Translate “Top-Down Approach” into FX environmental awareness
In the video, Choru-ko cited the “Top-Down Approach” as a secret to winning despite a busy schedule? (A method of looking at macroeconomics and the overall flow first, then drilling down to individual stocks)
This is exactly the same as the FX concept of “Multi-Time-Frame Analysis (MTF)” ✨
When you’re doing 1-minute scalping, you’re easily swayed by the micromovements of the candles in front of you (micro). But successful traders always look from the higher time frames (macro).
First grasp the big river’s current on the daily or 4-hour chart to decide which wave to ride, then hop on the small boat of the 1-minute chart?
This is my greatest strength—an overwhelming ability to wait. Because I understand the overall flow, I can comfortably wait on the 1-minute chart until my favorable setup (edge) appears ☕️✨
? 2. Translate the “crowd psychology bug” into FX contrarian/panic markets
What was very interesting in the video was the view that “a high-capitalization, solid company being sold off just due to a negative image is a ‘bug’”?️✨
In FX too, this “crowd psychology bug (panic)”occurs frequently. At indicator releases, or during rapid trend changes, when the crowd jumps on board in a panic or dumps due to fear… a distortion invariably appearsand
I focus on technically-driven trading, but the moments when the crowd panics are precisely the opportunities to aim forsmall losses, large gains— an excellent chance (a bug) to capitalize on?
However, one caution… ⚠️ No matter how much you think it’s a bug, if your hypothesis is wrong, you must exit immediately.
? 3. Translate the fear of “delayed stop-loss” into FX money management
In the video, Choru-ko shared a dramatic past experience of “delayed stop-loss leading to 90 million yen being wiped out” (a result of overleveraged single-point buying…)?
Hearing this, I nodded vigorously. Because for me, oukanoakari’s biggest weakness is also “the occasional delay in stop-loss due to perfectionism.”
“My analysis should be perfect!” “If I wait a little longer, it will surely rebound!”… This pride is the biggest enemy that shrinks my funds, right?
In the video, she said when you’re losing and your mindset is ruined, you should “drink bubble tea to reset mood” ? or “accept your limit.” It’s the same for FX as well.“Stop where you should stop” “Don’t chase the market”. Cutting losses isn’t a loss; it’s a necessary expense for the next opportunity ⟶?
? Don’t turn the market into a casino. Strive to be an honest trader
Treating FX like gambling or a casino, chasing huge wins with high leverage, is something many do ?? But while you might win temporarily, you’ll eventually be forced out of the market?
What I continue to share comes from a strong belief: to increase the number of traders who face the market honestly, with correct knowledge and mindset so they survive?
✔️ View the market from higher time frames (top-down) ✔️ Wait overwhelmingly until edge arrives ✔️ Know your limits, abandon perfectionism, and cut losses
Just by thoroughly applying these three, your trading will transform from casino to “solid business” ?✨
? Lastly…
What did you think? ✨ The wisdom from other genres (top-down investing in stocks) can also become a powerful weapon for FX if you change your perspective?️✨
I, oukanoakari, will continue to share with you the “overwhelming ability to wait” and“small losses, big gains” as weapons, revealing the real behind-the-scenes of the market and practical techniques?
