【SNS Trap】 Don't be fooled by glittering profits! The "hidden structure" to win in FX and the overwhelmingly patient power?
Hello! I am oukanoakari (All-Mighty) ✨
突然ですが、皆さんはX(旧Twitter)やInstagramでこんな投稿を見たことはありませんか?
「スマホ1つで1日5分!今月も月収100万達成?」 「高級車買いました?✨ FX最高!」
When you see these glittering, huge-profit reports, you might think, “I want to win quickly too…!” Right? In fact, I used to be one of those people who suffered from chasing “holy grail” or “mind-blow” schemes as well.
My perfectionist nature caused me to refuse to lose at all, causing late stop-loss and blowing away the profits I had diligently built up…?? I’ve repeated such painful failures many times.
But after watching a YouTube video (Hirofumi Uchida’s “The Sneaky Success Tactics of the Black Rich”), I realized the reasons why I couldn’t win in FXandhow to properly face the market became clear⚡️
Today, I will apply the three powerful insights gained from that video to the real world of FX (day trading and scalping)! If you know this, your trading perspective will change dramatically ✨
1️⃣ Question the “underlying structure” of glittering profits ???? (information literacy × FX mindset)
In the video, it’s said that “the dazzling success stories overflowing in society have an underlying structure.”
It’s the same in the FX industry ⚠️ The sensational profit reports on social media are often marketing to attract recognition and trust to sell something.
If you take information that someone is pushing for their own gain as reality and panic, you’ll lose sight of your own trading rules.
In FX, the most important thing is not to envy others’ profits. My trading style is 1-minute chart day trading and scalping, but my greatest strength is an overwhelming power to wait ⏳
Until my edge (the point where technical indicators align) arrives, I simply wait for the prey. The market is not a casino. By not being swayed by soft information and trusting only your own rules and “waiting,” you’ll actually find the fastest path?
2️⃣ Self-study is a waste of time. Stop “reinventing the wheel” (business thinking × FX rule-building)
The second insight is the shocking fact that “self-study is a waste of time (don’t reinvent the wheel).”
Many FX beginners analyze charts on their own or combine new indicators to create their own holy grail. But that path has already been walked by great traders in the past.
Those who have survived in the market say again and again, “cut small losses, let profits run, and wait.” If you don’t accept this and try to go at it on your own, you’re choosing a path that could take ten years?
Because I am also perfect, I used to try to control everything myself, which caused late stop-loss. But after honestly installing the mindset of “thinking like those who are already winning (cut losses quickly, wait for the edge),” the quality of my trades improved dramatically?
3️⃣ Turn the pain of stop-losses into “blood and flesh” (psychology × FX stop-losses, habits)
“The wise learn from history, and fools learn from experience… and that’s a mistake. The fool doesn’t learn even when they experience it.”
Doesn’t this quote hit your heart as an FX trader? ?️
We experience painful moments where we fail to cut losses and take big hits. But a foolish trader says “the luck was bad” or “next time,” and repeats the same mistakes?
In the market, avoiding pain (loss) is impossible. The important thing is not to end the pain as just a “loss,” but to turn it into your trading notes and make it a part of your “blood and flesh” ✍️
Facing the failure directly is painful. But only those who can find meaning in that pain and elevate it into a habit of following rules can become true traders who survive in the market?
? Do not turn the market into a casino. How to face it with integrity
Why am I sharing this today? Because I have a strong desire to reduce the number of traders who treat the market like gambling (casino) and chase money up and down, only to fail.
FX is not scary when you have correct knowledge, an overwhelming “waiting power,” and the honesty learned from pain. Even I, who used to be perfectionistic and prone to late stop-losses, could establish a trading approach of small losses and big profits by turning failures into experience and “waiting” ✨
Let’s not be swayed by others’ profits and face our own trading with sincerity?
