Losing money — for a long time!
亏钱——亏了很长时间！
Yeah. My only thought — I lost money probably for 10 years or more, and I’m a really stubborn guy. And my thought was “I can see the chart at the end of the day. I print it out, and I can see it’s going up. I knew bar 13, 14, 15, it will go up at least a little bit higher. So why not just buy there and put a stop here [below 8] and make money?” So initially, I started doing that for swing trades, and then I started saying, “Al, I can see all kinds of little things all along the way and they’re probably 30, 40, 50, 60 one-point trades during the day, and y’know I can swing and just wait or I can keep grabbing as many of those little one-point things as I can,” which is what I ended up doing.
是的。我心里只有一个想法——我大概亏了10年甚至更久，而且我是个非常固执的人。我的想法是：“我在收盘后看图表。我把它打印出来，能看到它在上涨。我知道13、14、15号K线之后，它至少还会再往上走一点。那为什么不直接在那里买入，然后把止损放在这里【8号K线下方】，赚点钱呢？”所以一开始，我是用这个方法做波段交易；后来我开始对自己说：“Al，一路上你能看到各种小机会，日内大概有30、40、50、60个1点的交易机会。你知道，我可以做波段，一直等；也可以尽量多抓那些1点的小机会。”我最后就是这么做的。
If I’m going to be here, it’s just more fun for me to take as many of those little things as I can during the day, than to buy the 14 close, and then just sit with a stop below 8, and then raise the stop below 18, and then raise the stop below 52. You make a lot of points doing that — you’d have made about 10 points, 8 points. But it’s more fun for me to stay connected with the market, so I just keep taking money out, taking money out, taking money out. And at the end of the day, you say, “Gosh, I worked hard, but I made a whole bunch of points.”
如果我要待在这里，日内尽量多抓这些小机会，对我来说比在14号K线收盘时买入，然后傻坐着把止损放在8号K线下方，再上移到18号K线下方，再上移到52号K线下方，更有意思。这么做你能赚很多点——你大概能赚10个点、8个点。但对我来说，保持和市场的联系更有意思，所以我就一直落袋、落袋、落袋。到了收盘，你会说：“天哪，我虽然辛苦，但我赚了一大堆点。”
Money management
资金管理
So, if you’re losing money consistently, it’s almost certainly due to management and trade selection. You’re probably buying too high, and then not using the correct stop Or you’re selling too low and not using the correct stop. And I think that’s really, really important. When traders are losing money, all they think about is loss, and — in general – they end up buying too high and using too tight a stop, selling too low and using too tight a stop. Any time you’re buying at the top of something, you need a wide stop; anytime you sell too low, you need a wide stop; and you have to be trading small enough so that you can handle it.
所以，如果你持续亏损，几乎可以肯定问题出在资金管理和交易选择上。你很可能做多买得太高，而且没有用对止损；或者做空卖得太低，也没有用对止损。我觉得这一点真的非常非常重要。交易员在亏钱的时候，满脑子只想着亏损——一般来说——结果就是买得太高、止损设得太紧，或者卖得太低、止损设得太紧。任何时候你在某个上涨的顶部买入，都需要宽止损；任何时候你卖得太低，也需要宽止损；而且你必须把交易规模放得足够小，让自己扛得住。
So let’s say you buy above 35, right? Where’s your stop? Maybe a couple ticks below here. The actual correct stop is below 18. So if you’re buying up here [above 35] you put a stop down here [below 18] and I would scale in. This is too tight — we’re probably going to get the second leg down, so here and I would buy above a bull bar there [above 52]. And then once we get this [the bull leg up], you raise your stop to that [below 52].
比如说，你在35上方买进，对吧？你的止损放在哪里？可能就在这下面几个跳动点。实际上正确的止损应该在18下方。所以如果你在这上面（35上方）买进，就把止损放在这下面（18下方），然后我会加仓。这里太紧了——我们大概率还会有第二波下跌，所以在这里，我会在那根阳线上方（52上方）买进。然后一旦走出这段（上涨腿），就把止损上移到那里（52下方）。
Trade small size
小仓位交易
So I think — I would, first of all, try to reduce the position size really, really tiny, and then I would just look at where the correct stop is, and I would look at being able to scale in one time. So no matter where I buy up here [26-36], I put my stop down here [below 18] and I want to scale in one time and do it above a bull bar. I don’t want to do it above a bear micro channel with a bull bar with a tail on top [45], but here — second entry — that’s where I buy again [above 52]. If you just print out charts, it’s such a good way to do it that it makes sense. It’s a really good thing to do. Even on crazy days like this, it still works.
所以我觉得——我会，首先，尽量把仓位缩得非常非常小，然后我会只看正确的止损在哪里，并且考虑只加仓一次。所以无论我在上面哪里买（26到36之间），我都会把止损放在这下面（18下方），然后我想加仓一次，并且要在阳线上方加。我不会在带有上影线的阳线上方、出现在空头微通道里的位置（45）去加，而是等二次入场——那才是我再次买进的位置（52上方）。如果你把图表打出来，这个方法效果好到一看就明白。这确实是件很棒的事。即使像今天这种疯狂的行情，它依然有效。
But that would be my thought. I would think about trading really, really tiny and trying to keep it really, really simple. You know, Al says, “Always in long”? Okay, I’m going to buy a really tiny amount. Al says the stop is down there. I’m going to put the stop down there, and I’m not going to add on if it goes against me unless I get a bull bar and then I’ll buy above the bull bar, above 52. And then I decide whether to get out breakeven on the entire trade or try to get out breakeven on my first entry and then with a profit on my lower entry. And if you just do that, it’s a really, really high probability way of trading. And, to me, that would be my thought about the first direction I would take.
但这就是我的想法。我会考虑用非常非常小的仓位去交易，并且尽量保持非常非常简单。你知道，Al说“始终持多”？好，那我就买一点点。Al说止损在下面，我就把止损放在下面。如果行情跟我反着走，我不会加仓，除非出现一根阳线，然后我会在那根阳线上方、也就是52上方买进。然后我再决定是全部仓位保本出场，还是先让第一笔入场保本，低位的入场随后带着利润出。只要这么做，这就是一种非常非常高概率的交易方式。对我来说，这就是我对第一个交易方向的想法。
