A few months ago, he only had 1200U left in his account, and he was very anxious, wanting to place orders at every fluctuation. Every day he shouted about wanting to turn things around, but in the end, his principal kept decreasing.
I advised him to take a break first, telling him that he needed to learn to stand firm before he could run fast. He listened. Four months later, his account grew to thirty-seven thousand. A few months later, it broke through one hundred thousand. During this time, he did not have a single liquidation, and he did not experience any significant losses.
It wasn't that his skills suddenly improved, but that he understood he could only survive by following the rules.
First, don't rush to get rich; clarify your positions first. Positions are not for gambling; they are for survival. He divided his funds into three lines: short-term for small fluctuations, and he would take profits and leave. Trend positions only wait for big market movements; if there are no opportunities, he does not act. He also has a portion of base capital that he always keeps as a lifeline. This way, no matter how the market moves, he can stay steady.
Second, do not act rashly; wait for the market to speak for itself. During fluctuations, he stays out of the market. When signals are unclear, he stays out. When emotions are unstable, he also stays out. The real money is not made from the number of trades, but from patience. When the market comes, he can make as much in one trade as others do in a dozen. Every time he profits over 20%, he takes out one-third, because what is in his pocket is what counts.
Third, execution is more important than judgment. He never hesitates to stop losses; when it's time, he cuts. Profits are taken in batches, and he withdraws as soon as there is a trap. He does not add positions and does not let losses amplify. The market eliminates not the unintelligent, but the undisciplined.
Fourth, having a small principal is not a problem; being impatient is. Don't always think about rushing; as long as the account is alive, opportunities belong to you. The calmer you are, the more profits will come.
Fifth, what I do every day is help you clarify your logic, understand the funds, the market depth, and emotions. As long as you keep up with the rhythm, allocate your positions well, avoid all-in betting, and know when to act and when to stop, your account will naturally grow slowly.
What you lack is not opportunity, but someone who can help you stabilize your rhythm. If you truly want to change, I can lead you down a path that can turn things around. It's not about getting rich quickly, but about steadily building wealth; it's not gambling, but growing your capital.
