EagleTrader trader interview | How does part-time trading find its own path to stability?

In the world of trading, every believer has his own rhythm. Wei Annan, a trader from EagleTrader, has been exposed to foreign exchange trading since 2019. In six years of exploration, he has gradually formed his own trading system-stable, rational, and self-disciplined.

Today, although he still has his job, trading has become an important part of his life. “I don’t plan to give up my job. Trading will always be a part-time job for me.” He used a balanced mentality to explain another kind of wisdom of “rational investment”.

The strategy is stable and optimized.

In terms of trading decisions, trader Wei Annan clearly regards technical analysis as the core, accounting for about 50%; fundamental analysis accounts for 30%, and intuition and experience account for 20%. He emphasized that the key to long-term profitability lies in formulating and optimizing your own trading strategy. “I have had my own strategy since I started trading, and I have been optimizing it, but I have never modified it significantly. It will remain like this in the future.”

In his view, it is difficult to completely eliminate the luck factor in the market, but it is not worth relying on too much. “Luck will bring some unexpected benefits, but in long-term trading, its impact is minimal.” What really determines the trading results is the system and execution.

Stay calm in the face of accidents

It is inevitable to encounter unexpected situations in trading. Regarding losses or profit retracements caused by overweight positions, trader Wei Annan always follows the established stop-profit and stop-loss rules – “If the stop-profit and stop-loss is exceeded unexpectedly, I will stop trading and wait for the next opportunity; if it is not exceeded, I will not adjust the plan.”

He believes that accidents are not terrible, the key is whether they can respond calmly within the rules. “Liquidation is not the end, it is just a resting point on the trading journey. Rest, adjust, and start again.” This calmness comes from his mature mentality after experiencing market fluctuations many times.

Risk Control and Rhythm

In terms of risk management, Wei Annan TradingMembers maintain clear boundaries. He never bets all his funds on one transaction, but flexibly controls risks according to market conditions, “I can accept a risk range of 10-50 for each transaction.”

Since he is mainly engaged in short-term day trading, he has his own understanding of market volatility – “There are more market opportunities in volatile markets, but stability and volatility are relative.” Even if there is a large retracement, he can usually return to the high point of his net worth within 3 to 5 trading days.

Thanks to the rules, trading can be more self-disciplined

After passing the EagleTrader proprietary trading exam this time, trader Wei Annan’s biggest gain is a new understanding of “discipline”. “Thanks to EagleTrader’s hard rules, I can implement my strategies more strictly and become more self-disciplined.”

He believes that strict risk control and systems are not constraints, but important guarantees to help traders move forward rationally.

A word to new traders

Faced with new traders who are about to embark on the EagleTrader exam, trader Wei Annan gave concise and powerful advice: “Develop a strategy, optimize the strategy, and persist in executing it.” These three steps may seem simple, but they are processes that every trader who wants to survive in the market for a long time must go through.

From strategy to mentality, from rules to self-discipline, trader Wei Annan uses robust trading logic to interpret the growth trajectory of a mature trader.

His story also reflects the philosophy of EagleTrader – only by adhering to the rules and growing in self-discipline can one truly spread his wings and become an “Eagle”.
