Why do I keep nagging: if it’s below 5,000 U, don’t ever think about making quick money?

Because the biggest enemy at this stage isn’t the market at all—it’s you yourself
A lot of people only have a few thousand U in their pockets, yet they think about ten-times leverage every day, compounding rolls for a turnaround, hoping to multiply their account tenfold in a month. To put it plainly, it’s not that they don’t want to make money—it’s that they want it too badly. The result is usually that before an opportunity even appears, the market takes your principal first

In these years, I’ve seen it again and again: going broke with 500 U and going broke with 5,000 U—the mistakes are basically cut from the same mold: going all-in with a heavy position, holding through drawdowns without stopping-loss, running when they’ve grabbed a little “sesame,” and when they lose, refusing to let go of it—until it’s an even bigger loss. In the end the account gets smaller and smaller, and then they start blaming the market for being bad
Actually, the problem has never been the market. For under 5,000 U, the most important thing isn’t how much you make—it’s to stay alive$AKE
When opportunities come, dare to act; when there are no opportunities, lie low and wait. Don’t think that trading every day is the only way to be diligent—often, doing fewer trades matters more than making a few extra gains
There’s one more thing I think is crucial: don’t keep trying to get back to breakeven. This is the root cause of most people losing money. The market won’t, because you’ve lost money, deliberately put opportunities right into your mouth. If you’re wrong, you’re wrong—cut it when you should. Admitting mistakes isn’t scary; dying on a stubborn hold is what’s deadly

What’s the biggest advantage of small capital? A small ship turns more easily. If the direction is wrong,撤 immediately; if the direction is right, then slowly expand profits. Don’t look down on those small gains—going from 5,000 U to 50k U relies never on one big all-in, but on accumulating step by step, day by day
Finally, I’ll send everyone this line: under 5,000 U, don’t always fantasize about getting rich overnight. First learn how to survive through bull and bear markets, then think about how to make big money. As long as you’re still sitting at the table, opportunities will always be there
