Realize the importance of philosophy to investment through learning. Then I traced back to the source and read some books on Buddhism, Taoism and classical medicine.

Most investors come to the futures market, hoping to find a winning trick as soon as possible and get rich quickly. In fact, the real futures trading is the accumulation of knowledge, technology, experience, realm and philosophy of life. As the saying goes, time transcends poetry. Poets make good poems from the accumulation of life. A good investor also needs to accumulate life outside of trading. The highest realm in the future is the integration of all things in heaven and earth and the harmony of nature-the freedom of spirit and wealth! Mature trading methods come from the understanding of life, based on technical analysis, combined with the essence of China's classical philosophy and military thought. More importantly, it is necessary to inject the trader's own thoughts into the Tao, which is the tortuous trading road that the author has experienced.

At the beginning of entering the market, because there were few books about futures in China at that time, and there were no trading training institutions, I only read a few books about stock trading, and hastily joined the long-distance running team of futures investment with limited funds. I am puzzled by the red and green K line in front of me every day. In the transaction, my eyes are fixed on the quotation machine and indicators. But I didn't think carefully about the nature of the market. Because we haven't perfected ourselves, explored our own characteristics, understood the nature of the problem, and even less understood the ways of defense and attack. The final result can be imagined. After many failures and tears, I deeply realized that in order to survive in the futures market, I must change my way of thinking and lifestyle. Perhaps the answer can be found outside the market. In order to leave the market quietly, for a long time, I sat on a boulder by the river in my hometown at 9: 00 every morning, thinking while playing with fish in the water, and carefully reading The Art of War and The Romance of the Three Kingdoms at night. Realize the importance of philosophy to investment through learning. Then I traced back to the source and read some books on Buddhism, Taoism and classical medicine. Their philosophical thoughts reveal the most essential laws in the world, and let us know that futures trading is actually about self-knowledge, self-realization and faithful expression!

The futures market changes endlessly, which tests the humanity of investors and cultivates their personality. I believe that no industry can match, and this market is absolutely equal. Not by connections, not by power, but by wisdom. Therefore, it is an excellent development field for everyone who is determined to live by wisdom. As traders, we should feel honored. From the usual practice and practice, all of us can get the overall shaping and practice of body, mind and skills, and find our own life inspiration, which will greatly stimulate and promote our life goals and ideals. For example, acupuncture in China is not a stopgap measure, but a treatment method to find out the corresponding position representing the sick body from the hands, feet and ears, so that patients can achieve the harmony of Yin and Yang and the smooth flow of qi and blood. A qualified futures investor can be in an invincible position in the market only by considering the problem in an all-round way and finding out the way of "restraining rigidity with softness and exerting strength with leverage". Before I realized it, I had been painfully looking for the holy grail of trading. However, it's like walking into an endless desert, and I got nothing after all. Through enlightenment, I understand that the holy grail of trading does exist. It is hidden in each of us. Only through difficulties and obstacles can we finally get the truth. Investors can find the holy grail in your heart by modifying it.

In ancient China, Buddhists had the famous Zen principle of "crossing the river when lost, realizing their own self-crossing", just like a boat crossing the river, carrying you to the other side of truth. When you have just stepped into the door of futures and haven't realized it, the teacher will teach you knowledge and skills and ferry you across the river; When you suddenly realize, enter the room and reach the other side of truth, you will go your own way in the future. Really entering the other shore is not the end of life, but a new starting point towards a higher realm. At the same time, the boat that takes you across the river doesn't have to be carried on your back all the time, but to build a new ferry that belongs to you completely, that is, to establish your own investment concept and trading system. The investment concept is an idea, a spirit, an expression of the market and life, not a simple move, but an empty one. Its essence is nothing more than perfection. Classical philosophy is precisely to guide us to realize Tao, and ultimately the theory of "crossing the river by yourself and consciously perceiving others" is the pillar of all investment schools. Only with a solid theoretical foundation and further development can investment skills have strong vitality. Therefore, only by understanding the investment concept can we deeply understand the essence of futures spirit and win in actual combat. I realize more deeply that investment technology is a subtle art and a combination of wisdom and skill. In principle, investment in technology cannot be based solely on learning. Like science and technology, it depends on practice and experience. Just like the self-growth process of flowers, the connotation is completely independent of any external desires and feelings. The main idea of investment is "Tao"-that is, the law of the universe, that is, the harmonious cooperation and circular transformation of Yin and Yang. This is the truth that every investor must follow. In actual combat, what we are facing is that the turbulent market price will not be fixed in a certain position. We will observe the confrontation first, and then instigate the attack and defense. Do it before you move.

Futures and meditation are two professional topics in themselves, and the author puts these two topics together for discussion here. I want to write out my limited understanding of trading and life and communicate with friends who have the opportunity to improve. The transaction itself should abandon any fancy and impractical skills and explore the spiritual cultivation hidden in the process of gradually forming its own style. Spiritual cultivation and spiritual cultivation are eternal topics in mature transactions. Putting thoughts into trading is like the "combination of boxing and Zen" in Shaolin Temple. "Zen One" can eventually become simple.

First of all, we should know what Zen is. For us futures investors, I don't think Zen is for us to burn incense and worship Buddha and ask the gods to bless us and make a lot of money. If the understanding of Zen only stays at this level, it is a simple understanding of Zen. Investors don't have to go to the ancient temples in the mountains every day to face the blue lights and yellow rolls, away from the life of modern people. Meditation has no specific form. As the saying goes: "Walking is meditation, sitting is meditation, meditation is meditation, peace and harmony. As can be seen from the above, Zen is actually ubiquitous in our daily life. Everything you learn is meditation. From ancient times to the present, many talented people have been meditating all their lives, such as Li, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, and Su Dongpo, a writer in the Northern Song Dynasty. We can see many meditation stories related to him from the book. Li Qingzhao, Yi 'an Jushi, Pu Songling, Liu Quan Jushi and Cao Xueqin, female poetesss in the Southern Song Dynasty, all lived there. They all improved their spiritual realm by participating in meditation in their lives, leaving us rich cultural heritage and spiritual wealth. Zen is not a religion, it is a profound understanding of life and a harmony of life. Zen can open up our minds, inspire people's wisdom and lead us into a more detached free world. Zen meets the conditions of truth, goodness and beauty. Realm determines a highly true understanding of Zen. I think Zen has become a keen intuition and a spiritual strength in the transaction. He has transcended the bondage of many things.

The futures investment industry has extremely high requirements for people's quality. When the ugly side of human nature is exposed in the transaction, it will bring losses to everyone. Zen-"aims to help people understand themselves and human nature, get rid of pain and entanglement, and seek wisdom in life." Many investors, even after trading for a long time, still don't really know themselves, love money and are arrogant. "Know yourself" is a famous saying of Socrates, an ancient Greek philosopher. His thoughts are profound and beneficial to future generations. If you want to stand out from mediocrity and become a qualified trader, you must learn to know yourself and be familiar with all kinds of operational wit in the market. And clearly understand how their strengths and weaknesses affect operational performance. If you don't know who you are, the market will tell you the answer, but you have to pay a high tuition fee.

"Zen" is not external (it is Zen if you don't cling to all realms); "Fixed" means that you are not tempted. Zen means "Buddha's heart". "Zen" means "stop" and "view", which means letting go and seeing through. Meditation refers to "unity of mind", which calms the chaotic thoughts. Meditation from the outside to the inside focuses on an environment. Meditation must begin with meditation, and only when it is quiet can it be achieved. At this time, it is already a state of forgetting myself. From "empty body" and "hollow" into the void dharma circle. However, in order to enter the realm of meditation, meditation must also have the spirit of transcendence. Only by surpassing ourselves can we break through all the physical, psychological and shallow obstacles in the transaction. The meaning of Zen is to produce supreme wisdom in meditation, to prove with supreme wisdom and to prove the truth of everything. This is called Zen. "Six Ancestors Tanjing Yan Chan Pin": A meditator has no living or dyeing outside, and uses Zen to settle his inner peace. The so-called external meditation is the same as meditation. Externally, in the face of five desires and six dusts, whether you can be indifferent to life and death in the world is Zen; Internally, if there is greed and love in the heart, it is settled. The biggest temptation in the market is that the topic of getting rich in a short time and various illusions of rapid growth of wealth in a short time are often circulated. This kind of eager thinking is usually the enemy that affects our normal transactions and will make people disobey normal rules. By learning meditation in trading, we can keep a cool head and focus on the market. You can honestly follow the rules and procedures and success will come. There is a Zen story: an old Zen master and a young Zen master practice in a temple. A gust of mountain wind blew and the flag on the flagpole fluttered in the wind. The little Zen master asked the master whether the wind was moving or the flag was moving. The old Zen master said, "It is neither a flag nor the wind, but your heart. "Meditation is to achieve the goal of staying together through staying together. If you don't move, your heart will be clean, and the price will fluctuate up and down in the transaction. So is the market moving or is your heart moving? If the market is tempted and moved, it is doomed that the final transaction is a loss! Through meditation, we should understand that futures investment has many temptations. If we can't resist all kinds of temptations, it will bring endless disasters to our investment career. In the rapidly changing market, as a qualified trader, we should always keep a clear head. Observe the market calmly and objectively. You can't trade because you are impatient with temptation. But to run rational transactions according to their own methods and plans. In this way, the probability of successful transaction is relatively high, which can increase your self-confidence. With self-confidence, you can be more calm and calm and strictly abide by the rules. Static braking and constant strain. Only by getting out of the ideological misunderstanding can we be indifferent to fame and fortune and have peace of mind.

The Heart Sutra says: The so-called "deep walking" means meditation and deep meditation. In meditation, Bodhisattva Guanzi found that when the five senses are empty-that is, "there is no self", all troubles and pains are relieved. It was in meditation that Bodhisattva Guanzi gained this pure wisdom and proved his great achievements. The root of the failure of futures investors is that they always take themselves as the center and impose their own subjective guesses, estimates and judgments when facing the market trend. On the price trend, I struggled with the trend operation and ended up with my own failure. For example, in an obvious trend market, many people always think that they are smart, thinking that when the price goes up, they will go to the top to short, and when the price falls, they will go to the bottom to do more. The root of this is self-centeredness, thinking that you are smarter than the market and that you can beat the market. In fact, the real homeopathic trade is to wait for one party to really run out of strength and leave the market, and at the same time join the growing camp of the other party. When one side's strength is not at the end of its rope, it is unwise to fight rashly. We must try our best to avoid the final counterattack of the market and try not to be wiped out in the darkness before dawn. The market does not depend on individual will. When you have "no self" in your heart, the trading realm will be greatly improved.

Generally speaking, meditation may not achieve enlightenment and liberation, but it is inseparable from meditation. "Zen is a wonderful thing. Once it plays a role in life, it is lively, natural, full of energy and can reverse the depression of modern human life. Zen is not giving up interest in life. Specifically, it transcends these five desires and six dusts and tries to achieve more realistic harmony and silence. " "Abstinence, determination and wisdom" are the central contents of Buddhism. The three are an organic whole and are indispensable. For example, if you want to practice meditation, you must keep precepts, which exist as the basis of meditation. Abstinence is a Dojo and the best training ground for people who want to improve their own quality. We investors should be alert to arrogance, recklessness, greed, arrogance and fear. Many investors read a lot of trading books, but they still can't control themselves in the trading. What's the problem? There is no practical practice and enlightenment, and there is no "words and deeds". Meditation is the meditation that breeds wisdom, the way of human cultivation, the way of development and the way of liberation. If you don't fix it, you can't afford to raise wisdom. All troubles are cut off by wisdom. The whole purpose of monasticism is "confusion" (confusion, that is, trouble). Cut off "confusion" and take the boat of wisdom to reach the other side of "liberation". Therefore, meditation is a tool for Buddhists to think deeply and gain wisdom. Knowing the wisdom of Zen will make people's mentality more stable and their psychological endurance wider in operation. Only by concentrating on observing every change in the market can we make correct and independent thinking and decision-making, and we will not stick to the rules and give up the wrong subjective views on our own initiative. In order to keep a clear mind, follow the footsteps of the market, integrate with the trend, hold the hand of price and follow the trend. The operation is as simple as that. Because trend technology is the highest level of conceptual development. Only by understanding and feeling the trend in your heart can you reach this highest level.

The Diamond Sutra says, "All laws can be tolerated." When people get along with each other and people get along with the environment, they must be patient. The only goal is to be patient in any environment, if they can make achievements in Taoism. If you can bear it, everything can be achieved. Futures investment is a difficult and serious job. If you want to succeed in the market, you must put up with what ordinary people can't. Start by forbearing yourself and your heart. We should be able to endure the time torture on the road to success, the pain after cutting positions, the impetuousness when making profits, the loneliness and suffering when waiting for the perfect trading opportunity, and the confusion when the market fluctuates ... Patience is a compulsory course in life. Only by doing this course well and then reflecting on and improving your mistakes can you improve your investment career.

In trading, mentality determines everything. Meditation is a "mental" training with super power, which has been verified and effective by countless wise people for more than two thousand years. This powerful "mental work" not only enables people to think deeply and gain wisdom, but also enables people to control their own life functions and gain health. What we really need in real life is spiritual bodybuilding. In trading, the training of "heart" is very important, because "heart" is the basis of "self". Without a trained heart, you will fall into all kinds of disorders, because such a heart is easily angered, ups and downs, easily influenced by the outside world, easily manipulated, easily satisfied by superficial praise, and easily hurt by meaningless criticism or meaningless bad words; They are often too rigid and stubborn to accept new ideas. And the wisdom in our hearts is born of decision and obtained by thinking; With wisdom, we can easily get rid of our troubles and let our self-nature be revealed and broken.

The main advantage of meditation is that you can find a brand-new life in front of you, full of understanding and sentiment, passion and energy. At the same time, your attitude towards life will change greatly, and you will be more active and grateful for the gift of life; You will face the whole world easily, be honest, fearless and creative. Destroy anything that bothers your mind without hurting people, but you can overcome your greed, anger and ignorance. Meditation can open a person's wisdom. It lights up your heart like a torch. It is a way of life and an action towards willpower and control. An open road to the true meaning of life. Only when you know yourself can you see through others, and Zen is moving towards knowing yourself. Learning Zen is not simply looking for knowledge or formal skill accumulation, but looking for the root of self-deficiency. Meditation can bring people not only physical benefits, but also emotional benefits. If you really understand the relationship between futures and meditation, you can control your mentality in the futures market, release pressure quickly, relieve anxiety, and improve trading level and execution. You won't be confused by the red and green K line outside. We can operate according to our own plans and ideas. You can resist all kinds of temptations, keep your own style, wait patiently for opportunities and stick to your own rules, then you will find that the original successful transaction is so natural!
