I discussed entrepreneurship topics with a seasoned trader. Speaking of which, if a trader truly has autonomous account management rights and their strategies can operate stably throughout the year, such individuals are often very cautious—after all, they've survived this long relying on risk control. So what about starting a business? Honestly, the options are not broad. The most realistic path is to upgrade from a trading team to an exchange operation. But this requires careful calculations; the entire business model must have a positive expected value, and ROI must cover the risks. Other entrepreneurial stories? To be honest, most of the time it's just for listening—many are just appealing narratives. Those who truly dare to take action usually come armed with data and models.

Do good risk management traders turn to entrepreneurship? To put it simply, it's jumping from one pit to another, just that this time the pit is bigger. The path of exchanges sounds glamorous, but how many truly dare to bet on it?

Good risk control means making money; starting a business is like risking your life. The conversion cost is indeed high.

Traders' entrepreneurship indeed needs to rely on data; relying on stories to fool oneself ultimately leads to the worst losses.

Traders who have proper risk control are indeed cautious when starting a business, but those who actually get out there and do it... are mostly driven by data, and stories are all nonsense.

Traders who excel in risk control usually go into entrepreneurship, and they tend to be honest—let the data speak for itself, and don't rely on stories.

The entrepreneurs trained through risk control are truly cautious to the extreme. I've looked into the path of exchanges, and you really need to calculate everything clearly, or you'll lose everything. --- After hearing so many startup stories, it's still that saying—data speaks, everything else is just storytelling. --- For traders transitioning to entrepreneurship, risk awareness is ingrained in their bones. It's much better than blindly rushing in. --- That's right, truly capable people rely on model data rather than just dreaming big. --- From stable trading to starting a business, this leap is actually quite significant. Risk control thinking can be lifesaving. --- The path of operating an exchange sounds reliable, but when you really calculate it, it might not be so. --- The worst are those entrepreneurs who only have stories but no models; now they are everywhere.
