【Seven Years Later, I Still Remain in the Game】

In the world of the market, there is no mercy, and no justice.
Only storms, cold winters, and survivors.
Seven years ago, when you stepped onto this land, you carried all the illusions of a newcomer—
Gold will flow to the brave on its own, opportunities are everywhere, as long as you're bold enough, wealth is within reach—that was the First Era.
You're not trading; you're rolling dice with fate.
Full positions, chasing rallies, setting out at the sound of rumors, believing you're chosen when victorious, trusting next time you'll turn it around when you fail.
The market remains silent. It never argues, only takes its toll.
The Second Era is the Year of Breakage.
The storm arrives. Losses are no longer just numbers but weight.
You begin to understand—that this continent holds no miracles, only rules.
Illusions die, reverence is born.
Many leave during this year.
They are buried between bulls and bears, and no one mentions them anymore.
And you, you did not leave.
The Third and Fourth Eras are the Years of Awakening.
You start doubting everything: news is unreliable, emotions are enemies, luck won't repeat. You begin to review, record, and think. For the first time, you ask yourself: which battlefield suits me?
At that moment, you realize that a true trader is not someone seeking opportunities, but someone choosing the battlefield. Many spend their entire lives never reaching this point.
The Fifth Era is the Year of Turning.
You leave the chaotic territories, let go of shortsighted slaughter, and arrive at a new continent—the US stock market.
Here, there are real kingdoms: tech giants, cyclical waves, global capital.
You no longer fight everywhere but start building your own fortress.
From that year on, you are no longer a speculator but a builder of systems.
The Sixth Era is the Year of Understanding.
The language of the market begins to become clear:
How cycles rotate,
How capital flows,
How emotions become extreme,
How panic and greed repeat themselves.
Ups and downs no longer shake you; volatility no longer terrifies you. You understand about 80% of the rules.
By then, you are no longer an ordinary participant. You become one of the few still alive. In the history of the market, those who survive to the sixth year are already survivors.
And now, it is the Seventh Era.
You no longer chase every opportunity, only waiting for the true storm.
You know your direction:
The wave of AI, core assets of the US stock market, the amplifying power of trends.
Trading becomes less frequent, judgment becomes heavier.
The real change is this:
In the past, you wanted to beat the market.
Now, you only walk with the trend.
In the past, you searched for opportunities.
Now, you wait for fate.
In the stories of the Seven Kingdoms, people often say:
Winter will come eventually.
But in the market, a more truthful saying is:
Only those who survive will see spring.
Seven years have passed, and you are still in the game.
This in itself is victory.
And the real war is just beginning.
