Chapter 414: How Did You Lose?
"As long as the price is right, there shouldn't be a problem. ”
"That's good, you can always be ready to go to the sugar factory to buy goods, I guess we'll see in a week or two at most." ”
"Okay. ”
As soon as Lin Li left, Ma Tianming also stood up and prepared to go out, when he saw that the cigarette case on the table was empty, he took out another pack of cigarettes from the drawer and put it in his pocket.
After going out, he went directly upstairs to Li Xin's office.
When he passed by the door of Yu Hong's office, he saw Li Xin talking to Yu Hong inside, so he stopped at the door and said to Li Xin, "Where are you here?"
Li Xin listened and asked, "Mr. Ma, is there something wrong?"
Ma Tianming said: "Come and talk to you." ”
Li Xin knew that he stood at the door and didn't come in because he felt that it was inconvenient to talk in Yu Hong's office, so he got up and said, "Go, go to me." ”
When he entered his office, Li Xin pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit casually." With that, he went to the desk to get a cigarette.
Ma Tianming took out the cigarette he brought with him and said while unpacking it: "I have it here, smoke this." ”
Li Xin was not polite to him, took the cigarette he handed over, and then asked, "Mr. Ma, what are your orders?"
Ma Tianming smiled: "Look at what you said, see outside." ”
Li Xin smiled and didn't speak, quietly waiting for Ma Tianming to speak. He knew that Ma Tianming would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and there must be something wrong with him coming to him at this time.
Sure enough, after Ma Tianming lit his cigarette and took a puff, he leaned back on the sofa and asked, "What do you think of the trend of sugar prices?"
Li Xin didn't expect him to ask this, and was a little surprised: "I haven't paid attention to the price of sugar since I cut the meat, and I can't understand the price of sugar this year!"
Ma Tianming smiled and said, "I really haven't watched it again?"
"I really didn't see it. ”
"Now it's down to more than 3,600, do you think you can buy it?"
Li Xin said: "You did a good job in the last wave, do you plan to buy it again now?"
"yes, but the price is not accurate, I always think it will fall a little more. ”
"Then wait a little longer, but I'm really not sure, otherwise I would have dared to buy it for more than four thousand, and now there is no reason not to buy it." ”
Although Ma Tianming knew that Li Xin had lost a lot of money in sugar futures this year, when it came to judging the price, he still wanted to hear Li Xin's opinion, and he really couldn't believe others.
Seeing that Li Xin didn't seem to be perfunctory, Ma Tianming asked: "What do you think of the 3,400 yuan line, can you buy it?"
Li Xin said: "You are an expert in this area, I can't understand the price of sugar this year, so I really don't dare to make up my mind." ”
Ma Tianming didn't seem to hear Li Xin's words, and said to himself: "3,400 yuan is the lowest point last year, and I don't think it will fall anymore when I get to that position." ”
Li Xin thought for a while: "It makes sense, in fact, this price is also advantageous compared to previous years, and the price of sugar should rise a little by the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day." ”
"That's what I'm saying, but this decline is too fierce, and I guess I won't be able to stop for a while. ”
Li Xin felt that Ma Tianming was a little calculating, and wanted to copy the business that got the lowest price before the Spring Festival, so he persuaded him: "Look at the general trend, since you think there is a good upside in the second half of the year, don't care too much about the 200 yuan, no one can grab the lowest point every time." ”
Ma Tianming smiled and said: "You are rich, how can I compare with you." Saving the cost of two hundred yuan per ton, my pressure is much less. ”
Li Xin himself has a very direct experience in the process of trading for many years, that is, it is very difficult to grasp the rhythm in the process of subtle fluctuations, and the most important thing is to see the general trend.
Take the example of his recent quick stop loss, although the closing price on the down limit board is a little low compared with the high point of the rebound on the day, it avoids expanding losses in the process of continuous decline.
That's what Li Xin said just now, but he saw that Ma Tianming didn't understand his intentions. He could see that Ma Tianming was sincere in asking his opinion, so he wanted to use his own example to talk to Ma Tianming more.
Just as he was about to speak, Gao Hui walked in.
As soon as Gao Hui entered the door, he saw Ma Tianming sitting on the sofa, and he was a little surprised: "Mr. Ma, are you also there?"
Ma Tianming nodded: "Hmm." ”
Gao Hui looked a little embarrassed after saying this. He seemed to feel that it was a little inappropriate to sit down opposite Ma Tianming, so he subconsciously walked over to Li Xin's desk, looked at Li Xin and smiled, but did not speak.
Li Xin picked up the cigarette on the table and handed it to him: "It's rare for you to come up, is there something wrong?"
Gao Hui grinned and said, "It's okay, just come up and take a look." ”
Li Xin could see that with Ma Tianming there, Gao Hui looked a little unnatural. This kind of situation is also difficult for Li Xin to handle.
At this time, it was Ma Tianming who broke the deadlock. He stood up and said, "You talk, I still have to leave beforehand." ”
Originally, he and Li Xin still had something to say, but Gao Hui's appearance made him dispel this idea. Although Gao Hui is not under his control now, as his former subordinate, in front of Gao Hui, Ma Tianming feels that it is inconvenient to talk.
Because compared with Li Xin, Gao Hui is just a very inconspicuous sales manager in Ma Tianming's eyes, and his level is not equal, he is unwilling to let Gao Hui know that he is asking Li Xin about the price.
After Ma Tianming went out, Gao Hui immediately seemed to be a different person, and he seemed much more relaxed.
He burst out the door and asked, "What did he come up to you for?"
"What's wrong with the sugar price?"
"Not much, I guess so. Gao Hui said and walked to the sofa opposite Ma Tianming just now and sat down.
"And why are you here?"
"Speaking of sugar prices, I heard that you lost millions in sugar futures some time ago, is it true?"
"You're just asking about this?"
"Oh, don't you care, is this true?"
"You are very well-informed, who told you this?" Li Xin felt very strange, few people should know about his loss of money, why is it that even Gao Hui knows it now. It's no wonder that I used to have something to do in the company without paying attention, and the phrase "there are ears on the wall" is really not wrong, and I have to be careful in the company in the future.
In fact, Gao Hui only found out about this matter when Lin Li went to Gao Hui's office to chat with him this morning. At that time, he was also very surprised, and asked Lin Li: "Why are you so clear about this, who did you listen to?"
Lin Li said: "Before I went on a business trip, Li Xin went to my office to inquire about the price of sugar, and at that time I found that he seemed to be going long on sugar futures, but at that time I didn't know what price he bought it, and I didn't know what price he sold it." Later, I heard Mr. Ma say that Li Xin's price of buying and opening a position was relatively high, and when he closed the position, he lost at least two falling limits, which was at least a loss of nearly 4 million yuan. ”
"Really, what a loss!"
"Then there will be a fake?" Lin Li said excitedly.
Although what Lin Li said seemed to be true, Gao Hui didn't dare to believe such a blockbuster news, and his curiosity drove him to ask Li Xin.
Over the years, there has been news in the company from time to time that Li Xin has made money again, but it is rare to hear the news that he has lost money, and this loss is millions.
So after finishing the things at hand, he went upstairs to find Li Xin to find out what the reason was. From a certain point of view, such news interests him more than Li Xin's earning of millions.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he entered the door, he saw Ma Tianming sitting in Li Xin's office, which made him a little dilemma, he didn't leave, and he didn't stay.
Fortunately, he was not the only one who felt this way, Ma Tianming's departure made him breathe a sigh of relief, and he remembered the purpose of this trip.
Although Li Xin's rhetorical question did not answer Gao Hui's question positively, it made him hear that what Lin Li said was the truth. So he asked, "Aren't you very good at futures? Why did you lose so much this time?"
"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, who can guarantee that they will win every battle?" Li Xin said.
"So you guys were just talking about going long on dips?"
"No, it's just a small talk, I don't know the price of cane sugar this year, so I don't plan to do it. ”
"If you think the price of cane sugar is relatively low, remember to tell me when you go long, and I will buy a little with you. Gao Hui said.
"Alas, forget it, I can't find the feeling of making an order recently, aren't you afraid of losing money with me?" Li Xin denied.
"Didn't you just say? No one can win a hundred battles, everyone will have a time to go to the wheat city, on the whole, you still have a lot of time to make futures, and it should be right to follow you. Besides, I invested very little money, just to earn some pocket money, and the profit or loss was not big, it didn't matter. ”
"I think you should still ask Lin Li and Ma Tianming more about the price trend of sugar futures, after all, they are doing this business, and the market situation should be better understood than me. I haven't done sucrose futures for many years, and I feel too rusty about the market, so I will lose so much this year. ”
"The futures market is still different from the sales market they are familiar with, and they have no experience in futures. ”
"But the price movements in both markets are basically the same. ”
"Oh, don't excuse me, if I can trust them, will they still need to come to you?"
"Well, as long as you're not afraid of losing money. Li Xin said helplessly. It may seem like a one-sentence affair to take someone else, but there is a lot of responsibility to bear here.
Especially for Li Xin, if others operate according to their own opinions and incur losses, his psychological pressure is very great. This pressure is even greater than the pressure of his own losses. This is the fundamental reason why he rarely tells others his trading opinions.
