[Reason to decide the stopping condition first] Criteria for the day to remove tools and the day to put them back

Last year, I once removed one of the displays I had been using.

When someone asked me why I removed it, I couldn’t answer well.

...Why did I remove it in the first place?

At that moment, words wouldn’t come out for me.

I could only say that it didn’t feel right, in some vague way.

I’ll write here exactly what I realized at that time.

I had been thinking about the criteria for including something, but I never set any criteria for removing it.

Good evening!

I’m Masashi ^^

What I decided this time is to write the condition for removal on paper before including it.

I’ll write both the conditions for removal and the conditions for returning it first.

There will be three lines, and none of them are about market prices.

Since I began writing these three lines, the number of times I change tools has decreased to once a year.

Starting with the day I was asked why I removed it and couldn’t answer anything。

✅ I investigated what “not feeling right” really meant

I was frustrated that I couldn’t answer, so I opened the records that night.

I’m rereading the past month before removal in chronological order.

What I realized was that the trigger to remove came from three days.

Those three days, indeed, didn’t feel good.

Yet the remaining seventeen days were very normal.

From those three days’ impressions, I was judging a whole month.

Moreover, those three days shared a common feature.

None of them went through the procedures I had decided for myself.

It wasn’t the tools but my own side that had collapsed.

When I saw this, I was quite embarrassed.

It could have been a tool that could be removed, or not.

The problem was that I didn’t have material to determine which was which.

✅ Based on a three-day impression, I judged a whole month。

The three days that didn’t feel good were days when I hadn’t followed the procedures.

? I was only thinking about the criteria for including things

When you’re looking for something new, you research very seriously.

You look at reputations, read explanations, and consider whether it fits.

I would spend hours on this process.

Yet when it came to removing, it depended on my mood that day.

Why does this gap occur so greatly?

The reason, I think, is that including something is fun, while removing it is painful.

Fun tasks can be afforded more time.

Painful tasks make you want to finish quickly.

Therefore, the removals always progress with a backward-leaning momentum.

Things decided with backward momentum can’t be explained later.

If you accumulate decisions you can’t explain, you waste a year without learning anything.

In my case, that had accumulated over several years.

? When including, it’s enjoyable; when removing, it’s painful. That’s why the removal judgments tend to be careless。

While I spent hours researching, I decided removal based on that day’s mood.

? I decided not to use results as a criterion for removal

So what should I base the removal criteria on?

To start with, I removed results as a criterion.

If results drop, there are two possible causes.

Either the tool isn’t right, or my procedures have collapsed.

These two cannot be distinguished from the numbers of results.

If you make the things you can’t distinguish a condition, your judgments will change each time.

So I decided to look only at whether I can follow the procedures correctly.

If I can follow them and the result still doesn’t come, that’s a matter of the tool.

If I can’t follow them, first I need to restore my own side.

Just adding this distinction made removal judgments much quieter.

By quiet, I mean that frustration and urgency no longer mix in.

? Whether the cause of poor results was the tool or myself cannot be distinguished from the numbers。

What I look at is not the results, but whether I’m able to follow the steps I decided.

? Paper-writing, the three-line conditions

The three lines to write before including are these.

Line 1: When should I remove it?

Line 2: How long should I keep it removed?

Line 3: When is it okay to return it?

[Removal condition: two consecutive months of plateau after following the procedure / Keep clear: one month / Return: the procedure has been followed five times] This is the form.

If you write it down, you’ll have something to read on tough days.

If you think about it yourself on a hard day, your today’s mood will mix in, after all.

The written paper is kept together with the tool’s manual.

Also, I think the timing for writing is very important.

Before including, you don’t yet have expectations or disappointments about that tool.

This moment of yourself is the most fair, isn’t it?

Once you write it, all you have to do is read it.

? When thinking about it on a tough day, your today’s mood usually blends in。

Example: [Removal condition: two consecutive months of plateau after following the procedure / Keep clear: one month / Return: the procedure has been followed five times]

? What to do on the removal day, how to actually use it

Even on the day I decide to remove because I’ve reached the criterion, I have a plan of action.

First, I reread the past three months’ worth of data just once.

I read not for outcomes, but for the proportion of times the procedure was followed.

Then I write the removal reason in one line on paper.

【Removal reason: because even in months where the procedure was followed, it plateaued for two months】 This is the form.

Writing it down helps me remember when I see the same tool six months later.

If I can remember, I won’t need to buy the same thing again.

This isn’t a joke; I have actually done it in real life.

Two years ago, I removed something and forgot, then bought it again!

Because I hadn’t written the reason, it looked good again to me.

From then on, during the removal period I only keep the procedure records.

The numbers of me without the tool become the comparison when I next add something.

? If you leave the removal reason in one line, you won’t need to buy the same thing again six months later。

Example: 【Removal reason: because even in months where the procedure was followed, it plateaued for two months】

⚠ When returning, use the same approach as the initial inclusion

There will come a day when you return something you removed.

What tends to happen is that you skip it because you used it before.

Because you’re familiar with it, you set quantities to the usual amount from the start.

With this, I paid a painful price in the month I returned it.

Even if your body remembers, the sense of the procedures isn’t as sharp as you think.

Moreover, during the removal period the market’s character also changes.

Therefore, when returning, you must go through the exact same procedures as when you first included it.

Reduce the quantity, write your own estimate first, and record any deviations.

It’s a roundabout path, but memories of having used it before were the biggest danger.

Memory tends to leave only successful moments behind.

When returning, I make a point to re-read the three lines written on paper.

⚠ Memory preserves only the successful moments. Therefore, be especially careful when returning。

Even if your body remembers, the feel of the procedures has faded. The market’s character also changes during the period it was removed.

? Why present it in an easily removable form

When I launched Golden Line Sniper AI, I had decided on something.

To make it in a form that can be verified before deciding.

The verification reports are 626 official, and 496 raw data sets are公開しています。

When creating, I looked at 9,192 real-chart examples and tried more than thirty ways of thinking.

Only about a third remained.

Still, what fits or doesn’t fit depends on the person.

Everyone’s lifestyle, available time, and account size are different.

Therefore, in the guidance, I write that just arrows don’t guarantee success.

I also clearly indicate who it may not suit.

From the seller’s perspective, it’s easier if you don’t write it.

However, if someone who doesn’t fit uses it for a long time, that’s not good for either side.

I think it’s healthier if you write the removal criteria first and have people try it afterwards.

? It’s not good for both sides if someone who doesn’t fit uses it for a long time。

What’s public: official reports 626; raw data 496; explicit note about those who aren’t suited

⭕ This approach is unnecessary for some people

Finally, I’ll also outline cases where it isn’t needed.

If you aren’t using any tools at all, today’s discussion is for the future.

In that case, please just take away the act of counting the times you have followed the procedures.

Also, I think it’s unnecessary for those who feel it isn’t a fit and can remove it immediately.

This is meant for people like me, who lose the ability to speak when removing it.

The tools themselves aren’t guaranteed to bring future profits.

When entering a period that doesn’t fit, it can stay plateaued for a while.

It’s not something that decides where to enter.

First, try with a practice account or a small amount to observe movement and costs.

And before including, I’d like you to write the three lines of removal conditions.

If you wait to write after including, you won’t be able to write it impartially.

⭕ If you try to write after including, you won’t be able to write impartially。

What cannot be done: deciding where to enter, guaranteeing future profits

? Summary: Write the removal day before including

Not being able to answer when asked why you removed it happened because I hadn’t decided it.

Those three triggering days were days when I didn’t follow my own procedures at all.

So I write three lines before including. The actual form is [Removal condition: two consecutive months of plateau after following the procedure / Keep clear: one month / Return: the procedure has been followed five times].

The point to look at isn’t the results, but whether you’re following the procedures. From those numbers, you can’t distinguish whether it’s the tool’s problem or your own.

On removal days, I leave only a single line for the reason. If you don’t leave it, you’ll end up buying the same thing again six months later.

When returning, I follow the same procedures as when first including. Memory tends to preserve only successful moments, which is the riskiest part.

If you’re not currently set on a removal condition for the tool you’re using, start today by writing those three lines ^^
