Every successful trader eventually learns one truth: profits are built on process, not predictions. A trading system is your playbook—it defines how you enter, manage, and exit trades with consistency and discipline. Without it, even the best ideas can crumble under market volatility and emotions. Here’s a professional framework to start building a robust system: ⸻ 1. Define Your Trading Identity Decide your approach first. Are you a: • Day Trader (fast, intraday moves), • Swing Trader (short- to medium-term momentum), or • Position Trader/Investor (long-term compounding)? Your identity shapes everything—your tools, holding periods, and risk appetite. ⸻ 2. Set Clear, Measurable Objectives Are you aiming for steady compounding, monthly cash flow, or high-risk/high-reward growth? Goals bring

I think the first steps to building such a system is to decide what type of trades the system will be taking. [Thinking]   E.g. Short term earnings play, swing/position momentum or value factor play, intraday scalps, etc. What it helps with [Cool]  : Objectively identify strategies that worked and those that didn't. Helps to streamline the decision making process, since you'll know what to look for in a potential trade. (E.g. Stock/Options Screening) Capital allocation per trade (E.g. No more than 5% risk per position for short term trading, especially when trading options where margin is involved) A simple discretionary trade system would probably have the following components: 1. When to start looking for trades (E.g. capital underutilized [Surprised]&n

5 Simple Trading Rules for Beginners Trading can feel overwhelming at first, but success usually comes down to following a few golden rules: Never risk more than you can lose – Protect your capital first.

Keep learning – Markets change, and so should your skills. 👉 Stick to these rules, and you’ll already be ahead of most new traders.

1500+ days in on tiger still feel like a newbie. I basically just turn everything on auto (deposit/conversion/investing/sweep/dividend) and forget about it. my stock trade system? pick and forget just building and growing the portfolio nothing on withdrawals. purpose of this post? nothing much just a reminder to my future self what i managed to achieve so far.

The worst situation I ever had was SGD100k -> SGD70K for UT. My HNW friend was commenting me for not giving my RM some business.Hence I told his advice and handed SGD100K to my RM to buy UT - US & China portfolio. It was the biggest mistake of my life. Last year, my RM suggested that I take a leverage to buy TLT and cut loss on my under water or deep sea China UT . I told him - please leave me alone and I will manage my loss. I m in the state of “ rob peter to pay paul”. A few of my high risk UTs are generating good profit.Thus, my loss is narrowing. The SGD30K loss has made me so immune to any crashes in the market. Instead, I, no longer, penny wise pound foolish.I will look at SG market depth and determine the possibility of getting my stock. If by paying an extra of SGD50-5

I am relieved that I never had a $100k to $2k type of moment. For my long term investments, I tend to stick to ETFs and fundamentally sound companies. I tend to enter in tranches and keep spare cash in case I need to average down. I will deploy a portion of my cash with every set percentage drop in the price. As long as the company is still sound, I do not panic sell but steadily average down. I think it is impossible to build knowledge first and then put it to practise with a smal sum of money. I tend not to trade except for HK/ China stocks which tend to be volatile and sometimes beyond reason. I buy when it is sufficiently cheap and tend to sell when it has reached my set price. I might lose out on more profit but this fits my risk appetite for now. I might do more swing trading when

Yes, I’ve definitely had my own “$100k → $2k” type of moment, and the biggest lesson was that without a system, emotions take over. That experience made me realize I needed clear rules instead of chasing headlines or tips. Now, I try to stick to my trading framework and avoid decisions driven by FOMO or fear. My system is quite simple: I enter and exit based on EMA lines, while also using recent support and resistance levels as confirmation. Before making any move, I run through my risk management plan — calculating the risk-reward ratio to make sure the trade makes sense. This has helped me avoid many reckless entries. That said, my biggest challenge is still controlling emotions. Even with rules, I sometimes let fear or greed push me into irrational trades. This is the part I’m working

I dont have 100k to 2k moment, but I have 20k to 2k moment. What I learned from it is do your own research before investment. Don't follow the trend or emotion. learn when to cut loss is another important lesson I had learned. Investment is a long learning journey.  Hope you all find your own rules or way in trading.  [Love you]

🌟🌟🌟I must confess that when I first started I tend to follow the hype due to FOMO.  But now I like to buy index ETFs like SPLG, STI ETF.  These have been good to me.  Slow and Steady is my way.  @Tiger_comments @Tiger_SG

It's been good so far....  Keep your faith...and keep going ! $SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$  $Archer Aviation Inc.(ACHR)$  $SoundHound AI Inc(SOUN)$  $Rocket Lab USA, Inc.(RKLB)$  $Robinhood(HOOD)$   

Keep it simple: pick 1–2 setups (breakout + pullback), define exact entry/exit/size, cap risk at 0.5–1%/trade, backtest 2–3 years, then forward-test ~20 trades. Journal everything, cut what doesn’t work, double-down on what does. Consistency > complexity.

The problem with trading system is it may only work under certain market conditions. Once the conditions changes, it may not work. It's easier just to invest and DCA into S&P 500 and QQQ ETFs for most people.

Yes I am defiantly be the $100K to $2k type of people haha. I feel they is real trading is stock need to have capital and when your diversified the market you surely will earn big.

Buy and hold. Take loss at certain percentage within your budget and buy again when lower. Rinse and repeat. Free coffee.
