Stop envying others for flipping their accounts; if you want to turn things around, start by changing your methods.
Many people think that flipping an account relies on luck, insider information, or a bull market.
During my worst times, my account had less than 5000U, and I was too afraid to place orders while watching the market every day.
Later, I managed to recover, not by luck, but through a gradually optimized execution logic.
Step 1: Don't think about doubling your account yet; first learn how to avoid losses.
I set a rule that each order could only affect the account by a maximum of 5%, with a stop loss controlled at 2%.
This means that even if I had several consecutive losses, my account could still survive without needing to recharge or borrow money.
Survival is the foundation of trading.
Step 2: Only trade markets that you understand.
Don't rush to learn complex indicators; first clarify two questions:
Is it currently ranging or trending? Are there obvious support and resistance levels?
At that time, I only traded two types of charts: pullback confirmations after structural breakouts and counter-trend rebounds at key levels.
No bottom fishing, no guessing tops; only take trades with certainty.
Step 3: Learn to use compound interest, don't rely on heavy positions for high stakes.
To grow my account from 1000U to 5000U, my approach was:
Profits = increase small positions; losses = reduce positions; during significant emotional fluctuations, be in cash and take a break.
Flipping an account isn't about one explosive trade; it's about long-term loss control and protecting profits.
Step 4: Write a plan before placing an order, set your stop loss and take profit.
Many people know they should set a stop loss, yet they always think, "I'll just watch for a bit more,"
only to miss the take profit and fall into a deep hole.
Now, I always: write the plan first, set the stop loss and take profit before placing the order, and then don’t change anything after ordering.
Don’t think you can get rich off one trade; accounts that can go far rely on:
Control, execution, and rhythm.
Not understanding advanced techniques is fine, but you must not make basic mistakes.
If your account isn’t large or stable, try this set of rules:
Trade less frequently, stabilize your positions, have a plan, and stick to reviewing your trades.
It’s not a magical skill, but it’s sufficient; it’s not a shortcut, but it’s reliable.
If you can't turn things around, it might not be that the market isn’t giving you opportunities, but rather that your methods aren’t effective.
In this market, what you lack isn't effort or opportunities, but rather someone who can help you achieve stable profits in this market.
