I once read a quote about confidence that has always stayed in my mind.
Are you successful because of confidence? Or do you become confident because of success?
There is indeed only a thin line between the two. But the true answer often surfaces only when you experience consecutive losses. The market does not deceive. Traders who can maintain their mindset during difficult times understand more than just technical analysis—they have a true understanding of themselves. The logic of success becomes blurry in favorable conditions and clear in adversity.

That period of continuous losses really hits home, I'm not joking, this is the reality.

When experiencing consecutive losses, I finally understood what true confidence is—it's not just talk.

Who doesn't dare to shout when the wind is favorable? Adversity reveals true character.

That really hit me; I used to think luck was skill.

The market has taught me how to be a person—lessons learned through multiple margin calls.

Exactly, mindset is much more important than K-line charts.
---
Psychological resilience > technical analysis, lessons learned the hard way.

It’s a bit painful to hear, but it’s really the truth.

Continuous losses are the true test of resilience. Most of those who claim to have a good mindset probably haven't had their accounts爆ed yet, right?

It was only at the moment of loss that I realized my true capabilities; technical analysis is all superficial.

Continuous losses are the best mirror to reveal the truth, clearly distinguishing between false confidence and genuine resolve.
