Teach your children how to trade with the right mindset.

It's not about futures, not about gambling, and definitely not about finding shortcuts to get rich quickly.

Focus on what matters: how to manage emotions when real money is involved. That is the most critical skill. When the market moves, when the portfolio goes up and down, the ability to stay calm and make rational decisions—not decisions driven by fear or greed—that's what separates surviving traders from those who go bankrupt.

Learn techniques, study charts, but don't forget the hardest part: self-discipline and emotional control when real money is at stake.

To be honest, that's half right. Emotional management is indeed a fundamental skill, but teaching kids this? I think they first need to learn to distinguish between investing and gambling, otherwise a good attitude is useless.

To be honest, I need to tell my nephew this properly, so he doesn't keep thinking about doubling his money and getting rich overnight...

You're absolutely right. This is truly what's missing in Web3. Most people come in wanting to get rich quickly, but when they hit a limit down, they panic. Emotional management is indeed the most difficult lesson to master.

That's right, emotional management is really the area that 99% of people overlook. I've seen too many people who are excellent at technical analysis, but as soon as they lose money, everything falls apart.

That's right. Compared to candlestick charts, mindset is the true moat. I've seen too many experienced guys in technical analysis who go all in to turn things around after a loss, only to end up losing everything in the end.

Well said, emotional management is indeed the biggest pitfall... So many people are technically skilled but their mindset collapses.

This is the truth. Too many people only want to learn about candlestick charts and indicators, but as a result, they get completely cut apart by their own emotions.
