Why does Brother Cat keep saying, “If you’re under 5000U, don’t always try to make quick money”?

It’s not because you can’t turn things around with 5000U, but because at this stage, the biggest trap isn’t on the chart—it’s in your own mind.
Think about it: with only a few thousand U in your account, you watch 10x coins and 100x leverage day after day, and all you can think is, “If this one hits, I’m flying.”
So what happens? Most of the time, you don’t get to “fly”—your principal is gone first. $M
Over the years, I’ve seen too many small accounts meet their end, and their ways of dying are highly consistent: go in with a heavy position, don’t cut losses when you’re down, and when you’re up, you can’t hold it.
In the end, the account shrinks to a few hundred U, and you start cursing the market and the market makers. But the real problem is just four words—too impatient.
Under 5000U, the most important thing isn’t to get rich overnight; it’s to survive. Trade what you can understand, wait for what you can’t. When there’s no opportunity, staying in cash isn’t cowardice—it’s saving bullets.
One more thing I especially want to say: don’t always think about getting back to breakeven. Once the only thing in your mind is “breakeven,” your operations will all go wrong.
Don’t cut what you should cut; don’t enter what you shouldn’t enter. The more you fuss with it, the faster you’ll lose.
The real advantage of small capital is flexibility. If the direction is wrong, you can turn around immediately; if the direction is right, you can add slowly.
Those who went from a few thousand U to tens of thousands U—none of them got there by going all-in on one throw. It’s all done one trade at a time, bite by bite.
Don’t look down on small profits. Take it slow. As long as your account is still there, opportunities are still there.
