2020交易杯访谈 | 第四阶段季军：善于总结，自成一派
Du Lian Liu先生来自江苏连云港，从2013年接触交易。起初是在朋友的推荐下抱着相互切磋的心情开始产生了兴趣。他认为长期磨炼积累外汇交易知识是成功的关键。反复经历失败成功后，在实战中总结经验，建立一套适合自己的交易系统和方法。 采访中，他提到在交易过程中会反复问自己两个问题：为什么会亏损？怎样才能赚钱？实战中他发现控制仓位的重要性，技术分析和操作层面两手都要学习。他在交易中最常用均线、趋势线和通道线来判断趋势，结合基础面消息，表示指标用的过多反而会影响对趋势的判断。 在谈到控制仓位时，Liu先生特别提到他在这次交易杯比赛中严格执行该策略，2000美元资金是总仓位控制在0.2手。按照比例总资金每增加一些，仓位也相应的增加。 他还向广大交易新手推荐了一本名为《交易圣经》的书籍，这本书为所有志在从事交易的读者提供了一份交易系统构建解决方案。最后，他对交易杯系列赛事表示了肯定，认为这个比赛提供了一个与其他交易者相互切磋交流的平台。

2020交易杯访谈 | 第四阶段冠军：趋势为王
James Hu先生早年移民澳大利亚，起初是对金融感兴趣，从事期货交易已经有十几年的时间。这次比赛只关注黄金、纳斯达克和澳元三种交易产品。他认为成功的关键是对趋势的判断，以趋势为主基本面为辅。同时，强调轻仓止损很重要，在整个交易杯阶段赛中他一直严格执行这个策略。 在谈到趋势时，Hu先生表示判断行情需要从大局分析，国际间的金融新闻和经济事件虽然会对某些交易产品走势产生影响，但是基本面或许存在人为干扰，从而会导致判断有所偏差。他认为趋势是个循环，需要了解金融市场背后的运行逻辑。在技术方面，最常用RSI指标来判断趋势，表示指标用的过多反而会影响对趋势的判断。
