@wangwatchworld The fact that such margin calls are commonplace in the industry only shows that they aren't playing a wealth game. It has nothing to do with trading discipline or wealth management; they're playing a game of using futures to elevate their social status. There are no quantifiable indicators of status, no stop-loss lines, and those who survive are those who promptly recognize their own status. This kind of status transformation in the industry demands extremely high levels of mentality and ability.
@wangwatchworld As a college student who just started following Lao Wang, I'm disappointed that I can no longer watch his Study Room series. I hope I can learn something from his other videos.
@wangwatchworld It's useless. As long as you make money, even if you leave in time, you will definitely come back. There will always be a big loss waiting for you. That's human nature.
@wangwatchworld One point. People will remember the highest and lowest points afterward. If someone makes 2 million from 50,000 and leaves to start a real business, it's hard for their story to be widely known. Only when they later make 10 million and lose it all will their story circulate.
@wangwatchworld A data analysis intern I hired previously used over 400,000 yuan to trade stocks, made some money, and then quit his job to trade futures full-time. For a time, he had a net worth of tens of millions, but later his fortune plummeted to the point where he had to sell his demolished apartment.
@wangwatchworld I like playing end-of-term options, it's exciting. I've experienced several times the return of CRWV in just two or three days. However, I never bet more than $100 at a time. Last week, I made up to 30 times. My current strategy is to never add to my position after each round of floating profits, because I've been on a rollercoaster ride many times before.
@wangwatchworld What nonsense! How can someone with 10 million in futures trading get wiped out? What kind of commodities support 10 million in scalping?
@wangwatchworld In 2012, Shanghai copper prices started a bull market. A retired teacher from Wuhan accumulated nearly 100 million yuan in unrealized profits through additional buying. We were all very impressed. We short-term traders simply couldn't sustain a position in one direction for over a year; we would have stopped long ago and waited for the top. Later, this elderly woman managed to return tens of millions of yuan in just one month.
@wangwatchworld The cruelest thing about futures trading is that making money doesn't mean owning it; it only temporarily passes through your account. Many get-rich-quick schemes essentially rely on a single model, extreme volatility, and constant hype. Once the environment changes, those skills become sources of risk. Those who truly know how to make money eventually learn to exit the market, reduce frequency, and diversify their assets. Those who can't exit trading will eventually be exited by trading itself.
