Small capital can also achieve great results! How I realized account growth with flexible strategies
When I first started trading, like many others, my account balance was not large, but I was eager to find a sustainable way to operate. After repeated exploration, I summarized a set of operating ideas suitable for small capital, and I would like to share them here for everyone's reference.
My basic principle is: always prioritize risk control. Before each entry, I will clearly define my stop-loss point and target level. Specifically, I will divide my funds into three parts, depending on the market conditions.
First is the exploratory phase. I will use a small amount of capital to feel the market fluctuations, usually not exceeding 20% of the total capital. The main purpose of this phase is to observe whether the trend meets expectations, rather than pursuing profits. If the direction is judged incorrectly, I will exit immediately, keeping the loss within a small range.
As the market trend gradually becomes clearer, I will appropriately increase my investment. The key is to choose the right timing for adding positions, usually during the pullback phase after the trend is confirmed. At this time, I will increase about 30% of the capital while adjusting the stop-loss position to protect existing profits.
In the final phase, when the market shows a clear trend, I will use the remaining funds. However, even then, I will strictly control the position size and will never go all-in. After each profit, I will withdraw a portion of the profits to ensure that the account always has sufficient risk buffer.
I set a rule for myself: no more than three trades per day. If I make two consecutive incorrect judgments, I will pause trading and adjust my mindset. The important thing is to maintain a stable trading rhythm, rather than chasing after overnight wealth.
A friend of mine, after borrowing this method, gradually recovered previous losses in two months. This made me more convinced that a stable strategy is more important than chasing short-term high profits.
Trading is not gambling, but requires systematic thinking and strict execution. Those who can truly survive in the market for a long time are often those who excel at risk control, rather than those who occasionally catch a big trend.
I have organized these experiences into a systematic operating method, focusing on cultivating trading thinking and risk awareness. If you are also looking for a path to steady growth, perhaps you can gain some inspiration from this. The market always has opportunities, but only favors those who are well-prepared.
