$SQD this wave of operation, 43 days from 2000U to 60,000U. Some might say it's good luck, but a careful breakdown of the trading logs reveals—this is entirely a victory of position management.
It's a bit sobering to say, 2000U is the "life-saving money" left after a big loss earlier. At that time, I was very clear: if I keep risking, this money will also be gone. Instead of gambling it all, I prefer to survive longer. So the entire strategy revolves around one core idea: survive, then grow steadily.
**Diversify risk, only hold one account position per trade**
Split 2000U into 5 parts, each 400U. The key is—only hold one position at any given time. No adding to positions, no full positions. The remaining 4 parts of funds stay idle in the account as my safety cushion.
**Quantify stop-loss and take-profit**
When losing, exit at 3% loss immediately; each trade loses at most 12U. When winning, take profit at 6%-10%, earning at least 24U per trade. No dreams of huge profits, just relying on the power of compound interest.
**This is what a one-month trading log looks like**
Average about 70 trades, 60% win rate.
- Losing 28 trades: 28 × (-12U) = -336U
- Winning 42 trades: 42 × (+35U) ≈ +1470U
- Final net profit approximately 1100U
The speed at which the principal doubles accelerates naturally.
**Three iron rules, one must not break**
First, set a stop-loss for every trade. Losses are not shameful; they are trading costs. If you can't tolerate them, it means your position size is too heavy.
Second, exit as soon as the take-profit point is reached. The downfall of greed is watching unrealized gains turn into unrealized losses, ending up empty-handed.
Third, only trade what you understand thoroughly. My specialty is breakout structures; I don't touch others.
Honestly, I don't watch the charts obsessively, chase rallies, or fight the market. Most people's losses are not due to poor technique but because once their position gets out of control, their emotions collapse. The direction isn't wrong, discipline isn't maintained, and in the end, they still lose.
I'm not betting on where the market is headed, but whether I can stick to my trading discipline.
From 2000U to 60,000U, the biggest gain isn't the money, but transforming a gambler's mindset into systematic trading. Those who understand the method can quickly grow a small starting capital like 1000U; those who don't, even 100,000U can go to zero. Market opportunities are never lacking; what’s missing is the resilience to stick it out until the end.
