Floating Profit Increase: Is it the wind that lets you take off, or a pit that buries you?
What hurts more than cutting losses is watching the big market slip through your fingers, leaving you with just enough to buy a pack of cigarettes.
We have all experienced this torment:
→ Heavy investment for a gamble? A market sneeze can make you kneel
→ Light investment to test the waters? Watching others feast while you can only sip broth
The secret lies in:
Letting profits run, using earnings to take risks
Those who truly make big money are never relying on luck:
✔️ First, explore with small funds, confirm the direction before increasing the stake
✔️ Use the profits already in hand as a safety net
✔️ When the big market truly starts, your position has quietly increased
Simply put —
"Let the market leverage itself"
But the most fatal mistakes newbies easily make:
🔥 The account just turns a profit and adrenaline surges, adding positions crazily
🔥 Ignoring key support, not setting stop losses, treating luck as strength
🔥 The result is often: what took three days to earn, is all given back in an hour
(Don't ask me how I know this so well)
The iron rules for survival are just three:
📍 The first position should be as light as a feather - if wrong, treat it as feeding the dogs
📍 Increasing the position should be as steady as an old dog - only add at key positions
📍 Stop losses must closely follow profits - never let a cooked duck fly away
True experts don't increase their positions, they increase their odds.
Now, a soul-searching question:
When your account starts to profit, do you see opportunity or risk?
Can you distinguish what is a true trend and what is a pie drawn by the market maker?
The choice at this moment determines whether you are the leek or the hunter.
