1, be happy.
If you think short-term trading is not simple and painless, don't do it. The so-called shortest short-term trading is a daily trading, which goes in and out on the same day and never misses the evening. Long-term positions are a long-term headache, short-term trading is not overnight, and you can't sleep well at night. Because the holding time is short, I am worried about the short time. The purpose of short-term trading is to find excitement and happiness. If you don't achieve this small goal, don't try. ...
2, know a little technical analysis, three points rely on skill, seven points rely on feeling.
The point is to know a little about two words. If you know more, you can become a formal technical analyst. Why do you need to do short-term work by yourself? Half a day's study can help you learn to repair the faucet, and one day's technical analysis can help you do short-term work. What should I learn? A 30-minute line chart can draw a trend line with a short moving average, that's all. The other is to look at the market index, listen to the fundamental news, and do it by feeling.
3. Have a degree in middle school mathematics.
Knowing the probability is the winning factor of short-term trading. In fact, the probability of middle school education is just good, and people who may not have studied arithmetic know this little problem. After short-term trading enters the warehouse, it is generally equal to the rise and fall. How can short-term trading be profitable? Earn a dollar when making a profit, and compensate 0.5 yuan when making a loss. 100 times, you earn 50 times, lose 50 times and lose 50 times to 25 yuan. You always make 25 yuan in the end. This is the only way to win short-term trading in my heart, and there is no other way. So after entering the market, let it run to achieve its goal when the direction is right; There is no room for psychological factors to consider staying or staying.
4. The general situation is wrong. No matter the length of time, never trade.
When the situation is right, the odds will be much higher than the above 50-50 split. If the situation is not like sailing against the current, smart short-term trading will give yourself a long vacation, which is absolutely unnecessary and may also lead to casualties. What do you mean the situation is wrong? In other words, if you fail to open positions continuously, there must be something wrong with your status. Short-term traders must give themselves a few days off and adjust their mentality.
5. Short-term trading is not a daily transaction.
Short-term traders are called day traders, but they can't trade in the day. If you make $500 trading today, don't expect to make $500 again tomorrow. The advantage of short-term trading is that you can choose which day to do it and which day not to do it, just like running your own business. You shouldn't choose the day when the Federal Reserve will announce a rate hike or not, and you shouldn't choose which day should be the day to watch a play. Short-term trading depends entirely on psychology, emotion and feeling. You must determine which day you are in a good mood and can concentrate on undisturbed trading; At the same time, you should have a strong feeling that the market will fluctuate today and you can make money.

Foreign exchange margin is a high-risk industry, and it is not recommended for any young friends to do this full-time.
Success in the industry has nothing to do with your quality, financial resources and education (depending on the patron saint behind you). Many elites and high-quality talents in other industries are tragic losers in margin trading.
This industry is speculation, which is called margin financing and securities lending speculation in English, not investment. Speculation is to place your bets according to the development of the situation you judge. To put it bluntly, it is gambling, but this kind of gambling is relatively objective and fair, and bettors have more opportunities to choose the betting time that is beneficial to them.
