Usually, a trader is a person who acts as a principal or a trader on the other side of a transaction. Place a buy or sell order in the hope of getting the difference (profit). On the contrary, brokers are people or companies that act as middlemen, collecting commissions for buyers and sellers.
Traders are divided into two types: day traders and non-day traders. Non-intraday traders are very similar to domestic stock trading, because China's stock is implemented with T+1, but domestic traders can only make more short positions, and there is no limit to making more short positions abroad. (How short it is is very vivid. In the long run, it is to buy first, and sell first in the short term);
In this case, it mainly means the trader of the day, because most people in this country are unfamiliar. Daytime traders mainly rely on small fluctuations in a day to obtain spreads, that is, through multiple T+0 operations in accumulated profit.

Matters needing attention in financial transactions:
1: Financial investment is like a war! The real strategy is that the risk-benefit ratio of fund management is positive. The buying and selling strategy is only tactics, while the entry point is only fighting. In a war, it is clear at a glance which is more important.
So always remember that right or wrong is not as important as we think, what matters is how much you earn when you are right, and how much you lose when you are wrong!
2. Everyone in the market makes orders according to their own views, so the market is sometimes right and sometimes wrong. But even if it is running on the wrong road, we can't block the car. Always be a follower of the market, but you must be a wise follower.
3. It is important to do it right, but more importantly, can you sit still? Can you sit still and trade when there is no best opportunity? When you make a profit, can you sit still and stop taking profits?
4. The market seems to be a person, when bullish market, bad news is often ignored, while bullish news is often amplified, and vice versa.
5. Keeping a close eye on the market is often affected by some small fluctuations on the disk. Keeping a distance from the market is easy to succeed. When we only have sesame seeds in our eyes, we often can't see watermelon.
6. Markets are * * * connected. Masters like Zhang Wenjun can trade in more than a dozen markets at the same time, which shows that financial markets are * * * connected.
7. Study trading as a science. When you are proficient in it, it will be an art to others!
