Have you ever experienced it, bro, we have carefully analyzed price movements. Appropriate indicators are used, the criteria for entry points and even exit points have been determined precisely and sharply. Everything looks good and perfect it seems. Then we have also been patiently waiting all day to get a valid signal for entry. And when the OP finally came, uh, soon the price fell against us, and our SL was crushed quickly.
On the other hand, sometimes we are still not sure, the signals from each indicator may contradict each other, but we force the entry, impressed by the origin of the entry. Eh, it turns out that the price moves in the same direction as our trading, and we get a decent profit. Until we wonder, how come?
So, from the two situations above, which one are you more satisfied with? Do you prefer and be satisfied with well-analyzed and planned trades, even if they end up losing, or coincidental trades that turn out to be profitable?

Obviously we better loss because it is our analysis than us profit but only coincidence, because it is not good for our development

If you are wrong, you should do a cut loss, when you profit, you have to be grateful for it.

when we experience profits, but we don't know why or are just lucky, then we should stay away from the market first to avoid excessive emotions

In the forex business, it is better to be consistently right than consistently wrong, even if it means experiencing occasional losses. A solid trading strategy, disciplined risk management, and a focus on long-term profitability are key to achieving this consistency. Making profits through lucky guesses or gambling can lead to unsustainable results and eventual failure. Traders should prioritize building a system that allows them to make informed and calculated decisions, even if it means taking occasional losses along the way. In the end, sustainable profitability is more important than short-term gains.
