Is Stock Market Your Lover, Stranger, Saver, or Master?
Have You Ever Wondered What Your Relationship with Stock Market Really Is?
After years of trading, some people still feel like strangers to the stock market — always brushing past opportunity but never truly connecting. Making money? That always seems to happen to someone else.
Others share an intimate bond with the market, almost like lovers. It’s sweet, joyful, and every mention of it brings a smile to their face.
Then there are those who say, “The stock market is my saver.” They made a windfall, life-changing profits. Some even quit their jobs afterward, living off their gains.
But not everyone is so lucky. Some end up feeling like slaves to the market. They started out wanting to master it — only to be dragged around by every price swing. Chasing highs, cutting losses, buying at peaks, selling at lows…
it’s always the same painful cycle. And losses seem to follow them like a shadow.
So ask yourself:

With time, that changed. I learned to respect the market, developed a system, and stuck with strategies like Dollar-Cost Averaging on plays like SOXL. I even opened a position in Tesla when I believed it hit bottom. The market now feels more like a familiar partner than an unpredictable force.
If I had to choose, I’d say the stock market is my “lover.” It’s something I’ve grown close to — exciting, challenging, and constantly on my mind. We’ve had highs and lows, but the connection keeps growing stronger.

Besides DCA for the stocks, I also monitor which month my dividends are at the lowest as compared to August. Thereafter, I will check which stocks will pay dividends at those months and I will work towards more buying.
Every one has their own plan of achieving their objectives, what works for me might not work for you. Just like.. there are many roads that lead to rome.. difficult roads lead to beautiful destinations.

Like a lover, I yearn and look forward to every day of the market so that I can consider my trades. I feel lost on days when market is closed as though I do not get to see my lover for the days.
Like my lover, I look at the stock market multiple times on market days.
Like my lover, there are good days and bad/ sad days when I took profit too early.
I look forward to the day when it can become my saver for me to quit my job and enjoy more quality time with my family and spend more time travelling and exploring my interests. It feels good to not have to work for money. For now, the stock markets complements my retirement plans and savings.

刚开始接触股市时，我几乎把它当作主人。每天开盘前紧张盯盘，涨了就兴奋，跌了就焦虑，情绪完全被牵着走。那时候我还天真地以为，只要够努力研究、跟对“大神”，就能稳定盈利。可现实是，市场不讲情面，涨跌之间暴露的，往往是认知的短板与人性的脆弱。
有一阵子，亏得太多，我干脆远离了市场，把它当陌生人看待，不愿再提起。但随着理解的加深，我开始意识到，市场其实是一面镜子，不是来给你“发财梦”的，而是用来放大你的决策与耐心。
如今，我更愿意把市场当作合作伙伴。它不是储蓄者，不会无条件帮我存钱；更不是爱人，不会照顾我的情绪。它提供机会，也带来风险，而我能做的，就是做好自己的功课、控制好情绪，用系统和逻辑去和这个“搭档”相处。
市场不会亏待有准备的人，但也从不宠爱谁。
但不是每個人都這麼幸運。有些人最終感覺自己像市場的奴隸。他們一開始想要掌握它——結果卻被每一次價格波動所拖累。追高、止損、逢高買入、逢低賣出……
總是同樣痛苦的循環。損失似乎像影子一樣跟着他們。
其他人與市場有着密切的聯繫，幾乎就像戀人.它是甜蜜的，快樂的，每一次提到它，他們的臉上都會帶着微笑。
