[Abuse Prohibited] Translating the prison-locked "48 Laws of Power" into FX's "Losing Cut and Waiting Technique" ✨
Hello, I am oukanoakari (All-Mighty) ✨
突然ですが、あなたは今、こんな悩みを抱えていませんか？
“If only I had waited a little longer, I entered at the wrong place and blew up…?”
“When the market moves against me I get heated, I can’t cut losses and end up praying…??”
“I’m searching for a surefire method (the Holy Grail) and only gathering information, but not seeing results…?”
Actually, recently I watched a YouTube video, and the trading philosophy and heartfelt feelings I’ve valued for a long time were beautifully verbalized, and I felt goosebumps as I deeply resonated?Trade Philosophy and Feelingsthat I’ve cherished for ages were captured so vividly, I couldn’t help but feel a deep resonance?
?The video I watched is here『【For Misuse Prohibited】The Behind-the-Scenes Rules of a Successful Trader Banned in Prison』https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPqoCxwhChY
In this video, the best-selling American author Robert Greene’s book “The 48 Laws of Power” is used as a base to discuss “the laws that automatically improve your life”?
After watching this, I became convinced. “The principles of business success are 100% the same as the absolute laws to win in FX.”
This time, I will translate the “three wisdoms” I gained from this video into concrete FX trading examples and deliver the authentic mindset needed to survive in the market?✨
1️⃣ Prelude: From my own embarrassing failure story… I’ll bravely confess and publish
Though I speak with confidence, I didn’t start out winning from the beginning.
My biggest weakness is actually “perfectionism.” From a strong belief like “my own analysis cannot be wrong” or “it should rebound here,”I have repeatedly experienced painful failures such as delaying stop-lossand losing money?
“Why is my position being targeted all of a sudden?”
“That influencer said it would go up!”
“It’s the market’s irrational moves…”
Exactly,a parade of complaints and excuses. Blaming the market and getting emotional, breaking the rules—there were countless nights I melted away my account funds.
However, by a certain “shift in thinking,” I was able to break free from this curse ✨
2️⃣ Fusion ①: Put negative energy entirely into “verification and discipline”?
〜YouTube Wisdom ①: Stop complaining and making excuses, direct your energy toward yourself〜
In the video, it is spoken as follows?
“The moment you voice complaints or excuses, your life flips to a bad one. Instead of directing anger at injustice toward others, turn that energy into the motivation to achieve your own goals.”[01:54], [08:39]
Also, there is an episode about US President Lincoln who would write letters when he was angry, then tear them up to relieve stress [04:19]?

Translating this to FX means “turn the market’s reversals into energy and elevate the habit of keeping a trade journal,” right?
The market is a bundle of irrationality. Even if you draw a perfect line, slippage can cause stop-loss. But blaming the market or market participants won’t earn you a single yen?♂️
❌Loser Trader: gets angry and instantly engages in “revenge trading (chasing losses)” and blows up?
⭕Winner Trader: writes the loss and the emotions on paper (trade journal) to reset the feelings, and pours all energy into past verifications?
I was able to escape being a loser exactly when I stopped directing my anger at the market and directed my improvement (note-taking, adhering to the rules) instead ✨
3️⃣ Fusion ②: Discard market noise and master the “overwhelming patience” ?️
〜YouTube Wisdom ②: discard useless chatter and time, focus on the essence〜
The second point of the video is very painful to hear ⚡
“Truly successful people hate useless chatter and idle time. They reduce words and devote themselves to absorbing the knowledge and skills needed to achieve their goals.”[06:08], [10:55]
It argues that instead of wasting time watching Shorts or SNS, focus on training your brain’s neural circuits (synapses) and building resilience?
? 【FX Translation】
This directly translates in FX to “discard unnecessary information (noise), and relentlessly wait for an edge-worthy moment” ⏳✨
Many traders in the world are swayed by social media hype or spend time chasing a “Holy Grail” indicator that may or may not work.
I currently monitor29 currency pairs plus gold, totaling 29 instruments, continuously. My style is anchored on the 4-hour chart for day trading.
Watching 29 currencies, you might think “there must be a moment to enter somewhere always.” However, my greatest strength is the “overwhelming patience” ?️✨
I do not engage in unnecessary trades. While monitoring all 29 currencies, I wait silently, like a sniper, until the moment when my rules align 100%, for hours or even days?
In the market, to reduce words (trading frequency) and focus on a decisive strike is the only real secret to smartly growing your wealth?✨
4️⃣ Fusion③: “What would the ideal me do” in this crucible?
〜YouTube Wisdom③: Decide not as you are now, but as your ideal self〜
The final message of the video struck me the deepest?
“Not running away from difficulties, proving you can control yourself is the sign of a big player. When faced with trouble, don’t take the easy route. If you were your future ideal self or a respected great person, what would you do in this moment? Decide and brace yourself.”[13:08]
? 【FX Translation】
This is exactly “rigorous money management and strict adherence to stop-loss rules” ⚡
What is the easiest thing to do in FX? It is to delay stop-loss and pray when you are under drawdown ??
To cut losses is painful, and admitting mistakes hurts. That is why the brain tries to escape to the easier path. This was a trap I fell into due to perfectionism.
But now it’s different. In the crucible moment when I am under drawdown and my heart wobbles, I always ask myself in my mind.
“If I were the ideal pro trader who continues to earn billions, how would I decide right now?”
The answer is already decided.“Without any emotion, calmly press the stop-loss button according to the rules.”──That is the one and only choice.
Don’t run to the easy path, accept the pain, and commit to the rules. This “man’s spirit” (mental strength) sharpens and your trading results dramatically change ??
5️⃣ Body 4: Why I vow not to turn the market into a casino?
Why does this oukanoakari resonate deeply with this video and share such information with you?
Because I have an absolute guiding principle in my tradingthat I live by.
That is—“I want to increase traders who face the market honestly, without making it a gambling casino.”a strong feeling ❤️?
Nowadays, when you open SNS you see flashy gambling trades (casino-like) such as “get rich quick” or “max leverage and earned tens of thousands per second.” But who can survive five or ten years with such methods?0.1% at most.
FX is not a game of chance. Control your emotions, cut waste, and patiently wait for high-expected points. And when wrong, cut the losses cleanly. This is an extremely logical and honest “business.” ✨
Because I have had a dirty past of perfectionism and failure, I deeply understand both the fear of the market and the joy of overcoming it.
That’s why I am not chasing casino-like trading, but rather hoping to increase the number of partners who confront their weaknesses and face the market sincerely and honestly, even if just one more person.I work daily toward this goal ❤️✨
6️⃣ Closing: Won’t you take a step toward becoming a genuine trader too? ✨
How did you find the three behind-the-scenes rules of the successful people I introduced?
Discard complaints, and focus energy on self-growth (verification)?
Eliminate noise and chase opportunities with “overwhelming patience” ?️
Don’t run to the easy path; uphold the rules as your ideal self?
From this very moment, your approach to the market can change. Start by writing your current emotions in your trade journal ✨
