Here is the content of his interview:

1. Congratulations on your excellent results in the stock trading competition! Can you briefly introduce your background and investment experience?

Thank you! I am currently engaged in research and development, and I am very interested in investing in my spare time. I started by reading some classic books, such as "Snowball", from which I deeply understood Buffett's compound interest thinking, and gradually developed a strong interest in investing. Over the past three years, I have been constantly verifying my investment strategy through real-world operations, and gradually accumulated experience on this basis. My investment style tends to be solid, and I like to choose targets through technical analysis and fundamental research. In addition, one of my hobbies is running. Running has taught me how to stay calm under pressure, and it has also taught me the commonality between investing and long-distance running - patience is far more important than speed.

2. During the competition, how did you develop your investment strategy? Did you adjust it according to market changes?

My investment strategy is mainly based on the judgment of market trends, combined with fundamental analysis. I usually adjust my positions and trading strategies in a timely manner according to the overall market trend and the macroeconomic environment. For example, when there is a large fluctuation in the market, I will maintain a more cautious attitude and reduce risk exposure. Relatively speaking, I focus on long-term trends, so my strategy may not be adjusted frequently during short-term fluctuations in the market, but if the market environment changes fundamentally, I will respond in a timely manner.

3. What was the greatest challenge you encountered in the competition? How did you overcome these difficulties?

One of the biggest challenges encountered in the competition is how to effectively control the retracement. Every investor hopes to achieve high returns, but in the pursuit of returns, how to limit risk and avoid excessive losses is an important issue. In order to control the retracement, I have adopted the strategy of setting a stop-loss line and risk diversification. When the market is not as expected, I will quickly make a stop-loss decision to avoid further expansion of losses. At the same time, gradually optimize position management to ensure that my portfolio will not suffer major losses due to the plunge of a single stock.

4. What factors do you value most when selecting stocks or making trading decisions?

When I choose stocks, I first look at the company's fundamentals, especially its financial position, earnings model and industry outlook. By analyzing these fundamentals, I can identify companies that have long-term growth potential and are relatively solid. In addition, I also pay attention to market sentiment and technical signals, especially when trading in the short term. Technical analysis can sometimes provide me with timely buy or sell signals. In general, I prefer companies that are not at risk of delisting or going out of business for at least the next few years.

5. How do you balance risk and reward? Are there any specific risk controls in place?

Balancing risk and return is the core issue facing every investor. My approach is to diversify risks by building a diversified portfolio. The maximum investment ratio of each target is controlled at about 30% to avoid a single stock having too much impact on the entire portfolio. In terms of risk control, I will set stop loss points and take profit points to ensure that every transaction can be carried out within a reasonable risk range. For volatile markets, I will appropriately reduce positions and control positions to deal with sudden market fluctuations.

6. What do you think were the key factors in your success? Was it technical analysis, fundamental research, or something else?

I believe that the key to winning is the resonance between fundamentals and technical aspects. Fundamentals provide me with a judgment on the long-term value of the company, while technical aspects help me find the right time to buy and sell in market fluctuations. The combination of the two can effectively improve the accuracy of my decision-making. In practice, I often start with the fundamentals, screen for potential companies, and then combine the technical aspects to confirm the entry time to maximize profits.

7. Did you have any particularly memorable or impressive trading experiences during the competition? Can you share them?

The most memorable trading experience is when I first came into contact with options trading, I blindly participated in the SELL PUT strategy because I underestimated the risk. At that time, I did not have enough understanding of the risk control of options, which caused me to fail to remedy in time when the market fluctuated, and eventually fell into a deep trap of 50%. This experience made me realize that the risks of options trading are huge, and we must have adequate preparation and response strategies, and we cannot blindly follow the trend. This is also the reason why I became more cautious and careful in options trading later.

8. What advice or experience do you have for players who may participate in similar competitions or enter the actual investment market in the future?

I suggest that beginners should not rush to pursue high returns, especially in high-risk products such as options, and be cautious. Many people think that strategies such as SELL PUT have a high winning rate, but in fact, if the risk is not well controlled, the final loss may be very serious. Therefore, beginners should start with a small amount of money and gradually accumulate experience to understand their risk tolerance and operating style. At the same time, continuous learning and practice are the keys to improving their investment ability.

9. What are the most important lessons or insights you have learned from this competition?

My biggest takeaway from this competition is that no one trading strategy is suitable for all market environments. Each strategy has its applicable conditions and limitations, so investors must be flexible to adjust their strategies according to different market conditions and their own styles. In addition, I also deeply realize the importance of risk control, especially in high-volatility markets, how to effectively manage risk is the key to investment success.

10. If you could summarize your investment philosophy in one sentence, what would you say?

My investment philosophy is to buy companies with continuous cash flow at a reasonable price and adjust positions to cope with market fluctuations. Investing is a long-term game, and the key is to be patient and prepared to meet the challenges of the market.

This interview not only showcased @snowflower 's outstanding performance in the stock trading competition, but also provided practical experience and valuable inspiration to the majority of investors.
