【Dark Forest Rule 0015】Trade: Easy to Know, Hard to Do, Let's Encourage Each Other
The highest level of trading is stability,
the highest level of stability is simplicity,
the highest level of simplicity is repetition,
the highest level of repetition is mindless,
the highest level of mindless is selflessness.
The progression of trading skills can be compressed into a minimal chain:
1. Make results "stable" — survive;
2. Make methods "simple" — keep only one high-win-rate strategy;
3. Make actions "repeated" — train this strategy into muscle memory;
4. "Mindless" — no on-the-spot reasoning, just automatic execution;
5. "Selflessness" — let go of "self-attachment," flow in sync with the market.
Additionally, there is a cultivation path from many to one, from brain to heart:
Technology → System → Habit → Instinct → Realm.
The first two levels rely on cognition and discipline,
the middle two levels rely on deliberate practice,
the final level relies on inner cultivation.
Trading success begins with independent thinking, a lonely dialogue with oneself, reconciling with inner desires, understanding the market, becoming friends with the market, and enemies with oneself, ultimately achieving resonance with the market.
This may be a guide, but you will still walk this path of trading alone, eventually gaining a powerful inner strength, and the wealth brought by this powerful inner strength.
