Many people ask, why do they always lose with small funds while big players can grow steadily? In fact, at the core, this is a mindset issue.
Imagine you open a position with 100U versus 10,000U; your feelings are completely different. When you have a small fund, even a 50% profit only amounts to 50U, which has zero impact on your life. So it's easy to get the wrong idea—since the gains are modest, should I leverage more? Go all-in? Anyway, not much to lose. As a result, one or two margin calls and your account is wiped out. In contrast, large fund holders are extremely cautious because each percentage point represents real money, so they naturally focus on capital preservation and steady progress.
Here's the ultimate question: if you had a large amount of capital, would you let someone with the same trading style as you operate it? What's the answer? Maybe you would say, look at win rate, check if your mindset is stable, see if you get emotional. Well, then this should be your standard for yourself.
The key realization here is—it's not about having money to make money, but about learning how to make money first; then the money will come. Treat this small amount of U as if it were 1 million to operate, which sounds a bit crazy, but from a proportional perspective, the operational logic of small and large funds is actually the same.
The true path to advancement is this: use small funds to test the system and accumulate experience. Continuously refine your trading framework through ongoing trading, learning while gradually increasing your position size. Experience + system + raw capital growth + ongoing mindset adjustment—these four wheels turn together, and wealth can then roll forward. Many people think about getting rich overnight, but in reality, this process is about accumulation, accumulation, and more accumulation. There are no shortcuts.
