I’ve seen some trading strategies in the contract market boasting a 50% win rate before they start selling. Honestly, I’ve seen that kind of profit—just a few tens of dollars. If you follow that logic, shouldn’t the daily profit with a 100% win rate be even more packaged and promoted?

Speaking of which, I’ve tinkered with more than ten different strategy models myself. I also spent money trying out solutions sold by others. And the result? After a month of use, it’s still about the same level of profit. This experience made me see clearly:

**The value of the strategy itself is limited.** A more realistic issue is that the time gap from signal generation to your actual order execution is enough for the market to change direction. Even a fraction of a second can influence the outcome.

Instead of chasing some perfect strategy, it’s better to admit that trading is essentially gambling. Don’t be fooled by flashy stuff, and don’t expect any system to automatically make you money. Recognizing this is the first step.

That's right, it's all just the art of scam packaging. There are only so many truths; no matter how much money you spend, you can't buy something that guarantees stable profits. I've seen so-called "divine strategies," and nine out of ten are just data backtest illusions. Losing your entire position in a fraction of a second—don't talk to me about perfect systems. Instead of studying strategies, it's better to work on your mindset—that's the real tough love. There are still people selling those things now; it's truly incredible. Futures trading is gambling. Recognize it early to lose less money.

Haha, you're so right. These selling strategies are just tricks to scalp retail investors. That's why I never spend money on those things; figuring it out myself keeps me more clear-headed. That moment of time difference can really make you vomit blood, I have deep experience with that. In the end, it's all about mindset and risk management. Don't expect any divine strategies. Rather than studying these, it's better to first learn to cut losses, really.

Bought three sets, now all sitting on the hard drive gathering dust.

After listening to the strategy theory for ten years, it's still the same—there's no Holy Grail. Basically, it's all about selling hope; those who are truly making money have long since stayed silent. This guy is right; those few milliseconds of delay can really turn everything around. I've been liquidated too; now I just treat it as gambling.
