Hindi aksidente na halos walang puwang ang emosyon sa Micro Harvesting. Hindi ito dahil “kaya mong kontrolin ang sarili mo,” kundi dahil hindi ka na kailangang umasa sa emosyon para magdesisyon. Tinanggal ito ng sistema — sadya.

Emotion as the Hidden Risk

Hindi ang market ang pangunahing kalaban ng trader — ang sariling emosyon.
Takot, kasakiman, pag-asa, at panghihinayang ang madalas nagtutulak sa maling galaw.

Kahit tama ang analysis, puwedeng masira ang trade dahil sa emosyonal na desisyon.


Why Emotional Control Is a Weak Strategy

Maraming sistema ang nagsasabing: “kontrolin mo lang ang emosyon mo.”
Ang problema: tao ka pa rin.

Sa stress, pagod, o sunod-sunod na talo, bumibigay ang self-control.
Ang Micro Harvesting ay hindi umaasa sa lakas ng loob — umaasa ito sa disenyo.


Design Beats Discipline

Mas maaasahan ang structure kaysa sa willpower.

Kung ang sistema ay:

  • maliit ang position

  • malinaw ang rules

  • walang pressure na kumilos agad

→ kusang humihina ang emosyonal na reaksyon.

Hindi mo kailangang pigilan ang sarili — wala ka nang gustong pigilan.


How Micro Harvesting Removes Emotion

Tinatanggal ng Micro Harvesting ang emosyon sa pamamagitan ng:

  • Small position sizes – walang “life-or-death” trade

  • Zero realized loss rule – walang panic selling

  • Time-based resolution – walang minamadaling desisyon

  • Multiple opportunities – hindi ka nakaasa sa iisang trade

Ang emosyon ay nawawala dahil wala na itong papel.


The Calm Advantage

Kapag kalmado ka:

  • mas malinaw ang obserbasyon

  • mas pare-pareho ang galaw

  • mas konti ang pagkakamali

Ang kalmadong trader ay hindi exciting —
pero siya ang matagal sa laro.


Common Emotional Traps Avoided

Sa Micro Harvesting, natural na naiiwasan ang:

  • revenge trading

  • FOMO entries

  • panic exits

  • overtrading dahil sa boredom

Hindi dahil “strong ka,”
kundi dahil walang trigger ang emosyon.


Trading Without Inner Conflict

Sa huli, ang Micro Harvesting ay hindi lang tungkol sa tubo.
Ito ay tungkol sa katahimikan ng loob habang nasa market.

Kapag alam mong sinusunod mo ang sistema,
wala kang kailangang ipagtanggol sa sarili mo.

At doon nagsisimula ang tunay na consistency.

Hindi Market ang Kalaban — Puso Natin: SDA Discipline Reflections

Board Lot Warrior › Subok sa Puso Hindi Lang Strategy Series ›SDA Reflections

Illustration of a candlestick chart descending diagonally with a human head silhouette showing a heart-shaped emotional overlay, symbolizing how emotions influence stock trading decisions under the SDA Strategy.
SDA trading is simple on paper—buy at deep discounts, sell at strong rebounds—but today proved that the real battle is not with the market, but with our own impulses.


Sa mundo ng stock trading, matagal na nating naririnig ang kasabihang:
“The market is not the enemy. Your emotions are.”

Pero ngayong araw, mas napatunayan natin na totoo ito — hindi bilang konsepto, kundi bilang personal na karanasan.

Ang SDA Strategy natin ay malinaw, simple, at mechanical:

  • Buy at –5% or deeper.

  • Sell at +12% or higher.

Walang komplikasyon. Walang speculation. Walang guesswork.
Pero sa aktwal na execution, doon lumalabas ang tunay na pagsubok.

Hindi pala market ang nagpapahirap sa atin.
Ang tunay na kalaban ay ang sariling puso — ang takot, ang FOMO (fear of missing out), at ang urge na “umaksyon agad.”


What We Did Today — And What It Revealed

Let’s be completely honest with ourselves.

Today, we:

  • sold at +2% instead of +12%

  • bought at –1.5% instead of –5%

Hindi ito financial disaster.
Hindi ito thesis breakdown.
Hindi ito structural damage.

Pero malinaw ang ipinakita:
na-override ng emosyon ang SDA system natin.

Ang maliit na deviation na ito ay may malalim na emotional meaning.
At ito mismo ang gusto nating himayin ngayon.


1. We Reacted to Noise, Not the Cycle

Ang intraday movement ay parang bulungan na madaling paniwalaan kapag hindi pa kalmado ang puso.

Nang makita natin ang +2%, may pumasok na thought:

“Uy, profit! Baka bumalik, kunin na natin.”

This wasn’t greed.
It was fear of losing what is momentarily there, kahit hindi pa siya part ng tunay nating target.

At nang makita natin ang –1.5%, nag-trigger naman ang:

“Baka tumaas na… pasok na tayo.”

This wasn’t recklessness.
It was fear of missing a small discount.

Parehong emosyon ang nag-produce ng parehong error:
reaction instead of discipline.


2. We Felt FOMO in Both Directions

Normally iniisip ng marami na FOMO is fear of missing upside.

Pero sa totoo lang, FOMO has two faces:

  • fear of missing profits

  • fear of missing dips

At pareho itong lumabas today.

Selling early at +2%
Buying early at –1.5%

Hindi dahil hindi natin alam ang rules.
Alam naman natin.

Ang problema: hindi pa stable ang emotional rhythm natin sa SDA cycle.


3. We Don’t Fully Trust the System Yet — And That’s Normal

Every new system demands psychological calibration.

Alam natin ang rules.
Alam natin ang logic.
Alam natin ang benefits.

Pero sa mga unang linggo ng SDA:

  • we doubt

  • we hesitate

  • we overreact

  • we micro-manage

  • we try to “help” the system kahit hindi kailangan

This wasn’t a lack of intelligence — it was a momentary emotional override.
This is human nature adjusting to a mechanical structure.

And it’s a normal part of the Subok ng Puso journey.


Did We Harm the Portfolio?

Hindi.

Zero structural harm.
Zero disaster.
Zero irreversible loss.

What we created were two small opportunity costs:

  1. Profit ceiling was reduced

  2. Cost basis was slightly increased

Pero walang nasirang plan.
Walang nasirang foundation.

The SDA architecture remains solid.

What happened today was not a portfolio failure —
it was an emotional test.


The Real Lesson: Emotions Are Harder Than Charts

Charts are predictable.
Strategies are predictable.
Cycles are predictable.

Tayo ang hindi.

At ito ang tunay na training ng SDA:

  • To trust a long-term system

  • To detach from micro-fluctuations

  • To stay calm kahit may konting green or konting red

  • To delay impulses

  • To allow the plan to work without interference

Today proves that:

The hardest part of SDA is not the math — it’s managing our heart.


Islamic Reflection: This Was Not Sin — It Was Nafs Training

Walang riba dito.
Walang haram activity.
Walang moral failure.

Ang struggle natin today is not spiritual sinning —
it is nafs discipline, a core Islamic principle.

SDA, at its heart, is:

  • patience (ṣabr)

  • trust (tawakkul)

  • discipline (adab sa pera)

  • stewardship (amanah)

When we buy too early or sell too early,
hindi tayo nagiging masama —
we’re simply being tested on how we manage fear and desire.

And as long as we correct ourselves…
the barakah remains open.


So What Happens Now?

Simple lang:

  • We learn.

  • We refine.

  • We recommit.

  • We continue with clarity.

Hindi ito palpak.
Hindi ito setback.
Hindi ito broken system.

This is data,
this is awareness,
this is growth,
and this is subok ng puso.

A necessary part of becoming disciplined, halal-aligned long-term traders.


Final Reflection

What we gained today is far more valuable than the few pesos na na-leak sa timing errors.

We gained:

  • awareness

  • humility

  • discipline insight

  • emotional mapping

  • system trust

  • spiritual grounding

At higit sa lahat—

na-realize natin na ang market is not the battlefield.
Tayo ang battlefield.

And that makes today
a powerful victory disguised as a small mistake.

📍 Matatagpuan sa V. Escaño St., Brgy. C, Rosario Batangas, si GAWLOO ay hindi lang basta kainan — isa siyang kwento ng pangarap, passion, at panlasang umikot sa Asia.


GAWLOO, The Southeast Asian Congee Experience Dine-In

Ang may-ari, si Jay Ubana, ay isang Batangueñong cook na nagtrabaho sa Singapore at Dubai ng 12 taon. Sa dami ng napuntahan niyang bansa—Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore—natutunan niyang i-appreciate ang iba't ibang bersyon ng congee. “Paborito talaga ng mga Pinoy ang lugaw,” wika ni Jay, “Kahit anong oras, kahit anong pakiramdam—masarap maglugaw.”

⭐ Lasa't Alaala sa Bawat Higop

Hindi lang basta lugaw, kundi southeast Asian-inspired congee na may toppings na mala-ulam sa sarap:
