To be honest, after staying in this line for so long, I’ve seen every kind of person. Some people rush in with a few thousand U and lose it all within half a month before pulling out. Others grind for years and still end up going in circles. But last year, that guy was the most special one I’ve ever brought.
When he first entered the market, he only had 900 U in hand, and he wasn’t even familiar with the basics of candlesticks. Many people thought it would be too hard to grow such a small principal, but he had one trait: he never acted recklessly. In three months, his account grew to more than 50,000 U, and now it’s already stable above 80,000 U. Some people say he just happened to catch the right market. But I know the real thing that changed him were three habits.
First, his funds are always separated.
He splits the capital into three parts: one for short-term trades, only taking certain profits; one for trend trades, waiting for big moves to appear; and the last portion reserved as contingency. He doesn’t touch it unless it’s truly a critical moment. The biggest advantage of small capital isn’t that you’re bold enough to gamble—it’s that you’re flexible. As long as the principal is still there, there’s always a chance to start over.
Second, no signal means no trade.
He used to like chasing hot spots too, getting impatient when he saw others making money. Later, I made him understand that the market fluctuates every day, but opportunities don’t show up every day. If the trend isn’t clear, it’s better to wait. If the direction isn’t confirmed, it’s better to stay flat and hold cash.
Third, both profits and losses are handled according to rules.
When a loss reaches the preset level, he exits immediately. When profit hits the target, he realizes it in batches. After the account grows, he promptly takes out part of the gains.
A lot of people lose because they want to make money too badly, and in the end they turn into chasers of rallies, adding to positions, and stubbornly holding on. Traders who can really stick around long-term aren’t the ones who guess right every time—they’re the ones who control their losses every time they make a mistake. $SNDK
