Chapter 58, stock speculation and cultivation

When Zuo Yuliang was trading stocks, he often studied articles about self-cultivation and opening up people's horizons, and it was also a chance that he turned out the desk article "University" that ancient readers must read from the bookcase, and after careful and careful study, Zuo Yuliang benefited deeply, especially for the understanding of stock trading, he went to a new level. That is, in stock trading, we must also cultivate ourselves and cultivate our minds.

In fact, in a person's life, the last thing he can let go of is gain and loss. Especially for stock trading, sometimes gains and losses are just a thought. The study of the book "University" allowed Zuo Yuliang to find a good balance between self-cultivation and mental cultivation.

Zuo Yuliang's favorite passage is the opening paragraph in "University": Those who want to be clear and virtuous in the world in ancient times should rule their country first, and those who want to govern their country should first gather their families, and those who want to gather their families should first cultivate their bodies, and those who want to cultivate their bodies should first correct their hearts, and those who want to correct their hearts should first be sincere in their intentions, and those who want to be sincere in their intentions should first know and know in Gewu. Character and then know, know and then sincerity, sincerity and then heart, heart and then body cultivation, body cultivation and then family Qi, family Qi and then national governance, national governance and then the world is peaceful. From the Son of Heaven to the common people, all of them are based on self-cultivation.

This text reads like a tongue twister, especially for people who are not good at ancient Chinese, they really can't understand it, but for Zuo Yuliang and other teaching craftsmen, it is more than enough to understand this content. After all, that's what they're learning for four years of college.

It's just that reading at that time and reading now, the artistic conception and mentality are very different, so reading this passage again, Zuo Yuliang's feelings are many different from before.

If this passage is extended to stock trading, it can be interpreted in this way. If we want to correct our own gains and losses, we must cultivate our minds and bodies, and to cultivate our bodies and minds, we must go through the tempering of the stock market, learn from things in the specific training, and then introspect ourselves and then realize the Tao. Finally, we can appreciate the true meaning of the rise and fall of the stock market. Stock speculation must evolve to the face of ups and downs, and still be calm and natural in the heart, which is the true meaning of investing in the stock market.

However, to do this, it is not ordinarily difficult. There are a few people who can be calm in the face of gains and losses! This kind of calmness is the highest level of cultivation in the stock market! But Zuo Yuliang needs this kind of quality, and if he wants to survive in the stock market, he must cultivate his own quality in stock trading, especially in the aspect of psychological endurance.

Only by looking down on gains and losses can there be a future, which is another way for Zuo Yuliang to speculate in stocks. To be an ordinary person, you usually have to pay attention to cultivation and improve your taste, and to devote yourself to the stock market, you must cultivate your psychological literacy. Once you make a mistake, you have to admit defeat, either patiently hold the shares, or cut the meat out of the game and stop the loss to save yourself. Instead of worrying about gains and losses every day, when losing money, hating the heavens and the earth, and regretting it; when making money, swaggering everywhere, not knowing how high the sky is. If the stock speculation is like this, sooner or later it will be the end of losing money and hurting your body in the future.

And to be calm with ups and downs, you must be able to hold yourself. If you want to try your best to control your greed, you don't think maturely, and you don't track down the stocks that have the main force to enter the market, so you can only continue to wait patiently for the opportunity to come.

In addition to cultivating the body and mind, it is important to master some basic common sense in the process of stock trading. For example, the meaning of a single daily K-line or a combined daily K-line, such as the relationship between the size of the trading volume and the rise and fall of the price, such as the meaning of the overall trend pattern of the stock, such as the meaning of various indicator lines, etc., some professional knowledge that needs to be grasped. It's not that you can make money by learning these things in stock trading, but with this knowledge, you will have more basis for judgment in specific operations, which will increase the probability of winning by buying stocks.

Especially in today's world where computers are rampant, the supporting software that is smart and rigorous to beat the human brain makes it even more difficult for most retail investors to make a profit from stock trading. Therefore, from this point of view, Zuo Yuliang feels that in the future stock market, retail investors are the group that will be eliminated. In other words, after many years, there may not be such a thing as a retail investor in the stock market.

And the only place where humans can outperform machines is in patience. If you are not familiar with the stock market routine, you will resolutely wait for the opportunity to make money from the market.

This opportunity is the opportunity for valuation to retrace its previous low in the process of evolution. In a year, whether it is a rising or falling stock, there are not a few such opportunities to buy the bottom. But once you come across and seize such an opportunity, it becomes a matter of course to make a profit.

This is the first secret that Zuo Yuliang has realized for so many years of stock speculation.

Whether he buys Bird shares, Shanghai Motor, or Wuliangye, they are all waiting for the same opportunity.

In fact, for people who have been engaged in the stock market for a long time, the real opportunity to make money from the market is only once or twice a year, and most of the time spent in stock speculation is waiting to be spent in boredom, so cultivating body and mind and cultivating patience is a good quality that a shareholder must have. We must analyze the market realistically, analyze human nature, and make our own decisions objectively and calmly.

But if someone acts as a god in the stock market, introducing this stock today and that stock tomorrow, most of them are guys with bad intentions, and if they believe them, there is a high probability that they will fall into the trap set by others. Of course, behind most of these people who introduce stocks, there is a gang that cooperates with the operation of the corresponding stocks, so as to increase the credibility of shareholders to them. As everyone knows, if you buy him, everyone buys, everyone picks up materials, and in the process of raising the stock price, the funds behind it have already made a profit and ran away. The follow-up shareholders have become the big ones again. So, as the saying goes, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

On the other hand, it is easy to figure out, if they really have such great ability, and they still talk about what they talk about every day! As long as they buy it themselves, they will make endless fortune every day! Therefore, if many things in the stock market are not valid by common sense, what are you really doing with that?

In a word, you can think about stock speculation, but you must not buy stocks!

Stock speculation requires self-cultivation, self-cultivation requires self-cultivation, and self-cultivation requires putting aside gains and losses. Only in this way, when you devote yourself to the stock market, will you be able to play with ease and be invincible!

This is the highest level of stock speculation that Zuo Yuliang wants to pursue.
