True trading confidence has never been about feelings, but about data validation.

Before you invest funds in the real market, you must thoroughly test your trading strategy. Data will tell you whether this plan is truly feasible. Confidence without data support is just gambling. Repeated validation, continuous optimization, until you can see clear backtest results and win rate data—that's the approach of a reliable trader.

Strategies are not fixed. The market changes, and your trading system must adapt accordingly. Drop emotional decisions and let the data do the talking.

You're absolutely right, it just feels like a trap. There are no lucky ones in the face of data. Going in without backtesting is purely courting death.

That's right, it really feels like this kind of thing can't be trusted. Backtesting data is the real key; without data, it's pure gambling. It sounds simple, but it's extremely difficult to do... Data speaks for itself, and this approach really works. I've suffered losses from unverified methods. Strategies must adapt to the market; sticking rigidly to one approach will eventually lead to failure. Trading without win rate data support and jumping straight into real money shows a lack of clarity. Emotional trading is the biggest poison in trading, I deeply understand this.

According to the data model in the white paper, this logic essentially addresses the issue of incentive compatibility. Trading strategies without backtesting data support are fundamentally no different from proposals in DAO governance that lack on-chain voting verification—they are all just gambling. It is worth noting that a true trading system should be verifiable and auditable like a smart contract, rather than relying on intuition.

Laughing and then crying, I saw someone who said they would let the data speak, and they immediately went all-in.

Backtest data looks good, but what's really important is whether the live trading can withstand psychological pressure.

That's so true, it really feels like this thing is a trap. I've been tricked several times before I finally understood to honestly backtest. Data doesn't lie; your account balance will speak for you.

It sounds right, but in reality, there are very few people who can stick to backtesting It's easy to say but hard to do. I've seen too many people whose backtest looks good but lose in real trading Data doesn't lie; it's your own hands that deceive you

That's right, this thing is just a trap. Having backtest data in hand makes you feel more at ease. Before throwing in real money, you must verify repeatedly; otherwise, it's pure gambling. The market changes, and the system must adapt accordingly. Sticking to one strategy blindly will eventually lead to big losses. Data doesn't lie; feelings can be misleading. Don't trust gut feelings; rely on data for accuracy. Going all in without thorough testing? That's just courting death.
