God Fish: Chasing High Trading is actually exchanging wealth for an illusory self-identity

Shenyu shared his trading experience on its social platform, "Every'rising and buying 'trade is not essentially a trade in the market, but a trade in self-worth. The increase in position is not because of new insights into the market, but because we need greater profits to maintain a grander self-illusion. The market becomes a mirror, and we are not obsessed with the profit itself, but the'invincible' self in the mirror. This is why all the advice about trading discipline and systems, while correct, is so hard to actually change behavior. Because you can't fix an existential problem with technical solutions. The most ironic thing is that when we think we are exchanging money for wealth, we are actually exchanging wealth for an illusory self-identity. From the very beginning, we were destined to lose this deal. "
