If it weren't for getting liquidated that day, maybe I would still be working now.

I will never forget the market conditions of that day.
I made three consecutive profitable trades, and my account's floating profit approached 20%. My head started to heat up, and my hands began to itch. I clearly know that the risk control rule is "a maximum of 2% risk per trade," but at that moment, I told myself.
"With the market moving so smoothly, there shouldn't be any mistakes."
So, I started to go all in and increased my leverage to enter the market.
The market indeed started moving in my direction, I thought I was going to double my investment, and I even took a screenshot to post on IG and my Moments.
As a result, you guessed it too.
A major news release led to a sudden market reversal, and the stop loss was not set properly, with significant slippage on the platform.
In just a few minutes, my account went from a floating profit of 20% to getting liquidated and clearing out.
That night, I sat alone in front of the computer for three whole hours without saying a word.
It's not regret, but rather an empty mind.
I have lost money before, but that time I lost it completely.
Not only did I lose the principal, but I also lost confidence, calmness, and principles.
I began to wonder why, after spending more than a year learning technical analysis, I would still make such a basic mistake.
The answer became clear later.
I'm not learning "how to be a trader"
I only pursue "how to make quick money"
Experienced traders say that trading is a practice of human nature.
I used to think it was very mysterious.
It wasn't until that day I got liquidated that I truly understood.
Trading has never been about who has more skills, but rather about who can keep their composure better.
From that day on, I made a few decisions.
Write a trading plan before placing each order, without ambiguity and without overfitting.
Accept losses, stop-loss is stop-loss, do not exhaust yourself.
Treat trading as a profession, not as emotional speculation time after time.
To be honest, I haven't "become a master" yet, but I know I'm on the right path.
If you are currently experiencing losses and doubting life -
I want to tell you
Don't be afraid!!!
We have all stared blankly at the chart, watching our losses,
Have you ever thought that you might not be suited for this path?
But sometimes, the real turning point,
It precisely comes from a deeply painful Get Liquidated #成长值抽奖赢iPhone17和周边 .
