Recently, some fans asked me about trading strategies, which surprised me very much. This situation is as unrealistic as a customer entering an ordinary store and asking if they have top-notch cigars. The shopkeeper might say that even if the cigar manufacturers had once tried hard to promote them, they are not interested, and then suggest the customer consider some local products.

This metaphor aptly illustrates an important trading principle: do not easily trust so-called 'insider strategies' or 'money-making secrets'. In the financial markets, strategies are actually the least valuable part of the entire trading process. This statement is worth remembering for every trader.

Successful traders understand that the key is not in finding a magical strategy, but in understanding the market, managing risks, and continuously learning and adapting. Do not be misled by the 'winning formulas' sold through various channels, as the truly valuable things are often not so easily obtained.

On the contrary, focus your energy on improving your trading skills, learning to analyze the market, controlling your emotions, and managing your funds well. These are the true elements that can bring long-term success. Remember, in the world of trading, there are no shortcuts; only solid learning and practice can help you stand firm in this challenging field.
