The trading records for the past 33 and 34 days have just been released. Since posting yesterday, the data is as follows: a total of 92 trades opened, with 66 profitable and 26 losing, the overall account floating profit is about -300 USD, and this round of rebates has earned 35 USD.
Looking at the account drawdown, I know many people are starting to feel uneasy. But if you think about it carefully, this market is inherently full of uncertainties, and no one can avoid that. I myself am a bit anxious, after all, I have over 8 long positions held. But I had a change of mind — our trades never exceed 20% of the capital, so there’s no need to cut losses now. In a bear market, daring to open long positions is actually about finding survival space in the cracks. At this moment, it’s not about emotions, but about cognition. Knowing that everything will eventually come back, it just takes some time. If we really get liquidated just because of this small correction, then we can only accept it, but it’s still too early to worry now. Let the market test us.
There will be a sunny day. I don’t want to wait until that day to regret not getting on board after tearing my thigh. That’s been my attitude towards long-term investing all along. Recently, I’ve also taken quite a few losses in the short term, repeatedly tormented by various market fluctuations, and in the end, I just gave up. This process is actually quite painful, similar to the pain of managing large positions before — large positions are like stepping on the accelerator, and once excessive leverage is added, sometimes it’s really hard to control.

66 profit, 26 loss, the win rate is pretty good, but the -300u hurts a bit
Short-term trading is really torturous. I’ve now given up trying to chase those few points
Holding over 8 long positions takes courage, but 20% position size is indeed stable

A 66% profit on a single trade but still at a loss—that's the magic of leverage... However, your risk control is indeed solid; a 20% position can't be wiped out easily.

A 66/92 win rate is actually pretty good; the key is to recover that -300u, otherwise it's all just talk.

Profit of 66 units sounds good, but the floating loss of -300u still stings a bit. That's why I have now reduced leverage.

66 wins with 26 losses, and the account is still negative. How strong must one's mentality be? I would have gone bankrupt directly.

A 66/26 win rate isn't bad, but a -300u drawdown is really tough. However, the 35u rebate at least helps recover some losses.

Data shows 66 profitable trades and 26 losing trades, but the account is still down by 300 USD... This is almost a typical day for retail traders [cold laugh].
A rebate of 35 USD can help a bit, but essentially it's just the exchange taking a small cut of your fees.
Ironically, the more you lose, the more you emphasize "cognition" and "waiting"—history has taught us that this kind of rhetoric appeared in 2018 as well.
Opening long positions in a bear market is not bravery; it's usually just a forced choice. Don't dress up inevitability as certainty.
