Bruce Lee’s Way of Thinking Like a Trader It’s better to have 9 years of experience trading 1 strategy than 1 year of trading experience for 9 systems.~ Timon Rossolimos inspired by Bruce Lee. Ever heard the saying… “I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times”? That’s Bruce Lee, the martial artist legend, and philosopher, dropping some timeless wisdom. His principles can apply to your life, business and of course trading. Let’s get into how Bruce Lee’s way of thinking can help you as a trader. “Absorb What is Useful, Discard What is Not, Add What is Uniquely Your Own” Bruce Lee was all about simplicity and efficiency. He believed in cutting through the noise to find what truly works. The same goes for trading. When you start, you’re bombarded with endless strategies. Day trading, swing trading, scalping, position trading… You’re bombarded by different markets Forex i.e. EUR/USD, Commodities like Gold, Crypto i.e. Ethereum price, Indices i.e. Dow Futures But here’s the kicker (no pun intended) Not all strategies are needed nor will they work with you. The key is to absorb what works and discard what doesn’t. Take it what works for your trading personality and risk profile – and leave alone the rest. Make it unique – Make it your own. Customize it, tweak it, and master it. “The Successful Warrior is the Average Man, with Laser-like Focus” Trading isn’t about being a genius. It’s about having focus. Bruce Lee knew that extraordinary success comes from ordinary people who have an extraordinary level of focus and dedication. Have you seen his one-inch punch that pushed the hell out of the guy onto the chair? That is PURE focus. As a trader, this means you need to: Focus on your strategy Focus on your execution. Focus on mastering your mind. Focus on each trade that lines up. Imagine spending nine years refining a single trading strategy. Think about the depth of understanding you’d achieve, the nuances you’d master, and the pitfalls you’d avoid. This deep focus transforms you from an average trader into a successful warrior of the financial markets. “Knowing is Not Enough, We Must Apply. Willing is Not Enough, We Must Do” Knowledge alone won’t make you a successful trader. You must apply what you learn. Do you think Bruce Lee read books and then became a master martial artist? NO! He practiced hours a day every day and integrated it HIGHLY into his life. You can read all the trading books, attend seminars, and follow market news, but unless you apply that knowledge, it’s all for naught. Without action, they are just ideas. Trading is about execution. It’s about taking that well-honed strategy and putting it into action. Backtest it, forward test it, and refine it through real-world experience. It’s the doing that separates successful traders from perpetual learners. “ Mistakes are Always Forgivable, if One Has the Courage to Admit Them” Mistakes are part of the journey. Bruce Lee understood that failure is not the opposite of success; it’s a part of it. In trading, you’re going to make mistakes. You’ll face losses (what I call data points). You will make poor decisions (at times) – To err is human. And you will encounter unexpected market movements. Take it ALL… FINAL WORDS: Bruce Lee’s wisdom transcends martial arts, offering valuable insights for traders. This has definitely been one of my favourite articles to write. I hope Bruce Lee’s wisdom and information will continue to linger and spread throughout for the countless generations to come. One more thing… Trading isn’t about being the jack-of-all-trades. It’s about being the master of one. So, channel your inner Bruce Lee and commit to the path of mastery. Let’s sum up the powerful Bruce Lee quotes that we covered in this article: “Absorb What is Useful, Discard What is Not, Add What is Uniquely Your Own” “The Successful Warrior is the Average Man, with Laser-like Focus” “Knowing is Not Enough, We Must Apply. Willing is Not Enough, We Must Do” “Mistakes are Always Forgivable, if One Has the Courage to Admit Them”

Ninja Talks EP 31: Bruce Lee Trading Embracing Bruce Lee's Timeless Insights to Conquer the Markets "Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. If you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. If you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee Embrace Adaptability: Just as water adapts to any vessel it occupies, be flexible and adaptable in your financial speculation. Markets can change rapidly, and being rigid in your approach can lead to missed opportunities. Adaptability allows you to adjust your strategies according to market conditions and seize profitable opportunities. Cultivate an Open Mind: Emptying your mind, as Bruce Lee suggests, means letting go of preconceived notions and biases. Approach financial speculation with an open mind, ready to learn and explore new ideas. Embrace different perspectives, strategies, and techniques, as they can broaden your understanding and lead to better decision-making. Flow with the Market: Water flows effortlessly, finding the path of least resistance. Similarly, in financial speculation, it's crucial to flow with the market rather than fight against it. Pay attention to market trends, follow the momentum, and align your trades with the prevailing direction. This doesn't mean blindly following the crowd, but rather understanding the market's dynamics and adjusting your positions accordingly. Be Shapeless in Risk Management: Water takes the shape of its container, and in financial speculation, you must be adaptable in managing risks. Tailor your risk management strategies to suit different market conditions. Employ appropriate risk mitigation techniques, such as position sizing, stop-loss orders, and diversification, to protect your capital and navigate uncertain market environments. Maintain Emotional Balance: Just as water remains calm and tranquil, strive for emotional balance in your financial speculation. Emotions like fear and greed can cloud judgment and lead to impulsive decisions. Practice emotional discipline, keep your emotions in check, and make rational choices based on sound analysis rather than being driven by emotions. Learn to Flow and Crash: Water can flow gently or crash with great force. Similarly, as a financial speculator, you must learn to navigate different market conditions. During times of stability, adopt a flowing approach, where you follow trends and take advantage of gradual market movements. However, when faced with turbulent times, be prepared to crash, which means having the ability to protect your positions, cut losses quickly, and adapt to changing market dynamics. Find Your Own Path: In Bruce Lee's quote, he advises, "Be water, my friend." This suggests that you should find your own path in financial speculation. While you can learn from others and study successful strategies, ultimately, you must develop your own approach that aligns with your goals, risk tolerance, and strengths. Being water means discovering your unique style and adapting it to achieve success in the financial markets. By integrating these seven points derived from Bruce Lee's quote, you can approach financial speculation with a profound mindset, leveraging adaptability, open-mindedness, market flow, effective risk management, emotional balance, versatility, and a personalized approach to carve your path to success.

Supermx. Why it already @ multi year “bottom”? 7/Nov/22.Supermx. “Why” its stock price having “high probability “ @ multi years “bottom”?! The “answer” lie within this “bunches of” ema crossover! BUT it’s not “a simple” so called ema’s crossover / ema’s act as support/resistance “ strategies. You got to “see/check” stock’s price “whole pic” from yearly to 1 min chart..It might take you > 10 years / 10k hours to find the answer as I did. EMA is the ONLY indicator I still keep it now to “confirm my entries on the empty right space of any chart” after “trial and error/ back testing,super” few hundreds even thousand indicators/system. You probably won’t see my past analysis with “bunch of ema’s” because it “look messy” as “most expert traders” will tell you try to keep your chart “ as simple as possible “..But to be honest there is nothing is “simple” chart in trading. As a “simple ema system” is not just a “simple” ema crossover/support/resistance strategies”... Those “master traders” said so because only they have tried hundreds if not indicators but system only they could come into “zen / zone” stage by “throwing” unnecessary staffs. But novice will learn the piece by piece only by reading “simple chart”..Tips : Always try to “discover” with why/ how.. As human’s most “inventions” get inspired by “discovery/ explorations” ..To have “discover” new things Once a while we need to break the rules. E.g. The world “most laws/rule/standards protocols” is set by westerners so to have “innovative ideas” we must “break their rules” once a while as they break their own ancestors’s “rules”..
