1500U four months turned into 45,000U. This achievement isn't legendary, but the operational logic is definitely worth analyzing. There are no complicated tricks; to put it simply, it's one word: discipline.



Many traders ask, how can small capital be turned into a fortune? Actually, everyone knows the method; the difficulty lies in whether you can stick to it every day. Here's a real trading case: starting with 1500U, completely avoiding high leverage and not gambling on short-term emotional swings, it reached 45,000U in four months. The entire process was so dull that there were almost no highlights—but that's precisely what makes it valuable.

**Strategy 1: Divide the account into three parts to spread risk**

Split 1500U into three portions. The first part is for short-term trading, with quick entries and exits; take profits and then exit without greed. The second part is for waiting for clear trends; if there's no obvious upward potential, stay in cash. The third part is fully locked; no matter how tempting the market looks, do not move. The purpose of dividing the account isn't conservatism but to ensure that a single mistake won't wipe you out.

**Strategy 2: Only trade confirmed trends, most of the time just wait**

80% of the time, the market is in consolidation; during these times, your task is to do nothing. The real profit comes after a breakout and following the main upward wave. Once profits reach your target, take some off the table to secure safety, and only then continue to follow the trend with the remaining position.

**Strategy 3: Stop-loss must be faster than take-profit**

Cut losses immediately when reaching the preset level, with no excuses. When in profit, reduce your position first, using profits to seek bigger opportunities. The most taboo thing is averaging down to lower the cost—this will only drag you deeper.

During these four months, the most frequent action this account took was not placing orders but waiting. While others get repeatedly stopped out in consolidation, he stays in cash and observes; while others chase the rise and get trapped, he has already cut losses and exited.

Whether small capital can be turned into a fortune doesn't depend on how aggressive your trading is, but on how steady you are. Keep the rules, and money will come naturally; fail to do so, and your account will eventually be wiped out.

Basically, it's about waiting. When others are losing money, he's waiting. It's boring as hell, but he's just making money.

It sounds simple, but how many people can really stick with it? I tried splitting my positions, but I still got itchy...

It's not wrong, but that line "Can't keep the account and will eventually be wiped out" really hits home, too many negative examples around me. --- Wait, the idea of splitting the position into three parts is still okay; the key is that most people can't stay patient enough to do it. --- Damn, this is really valuable, not some bragging about legendary recoveries, just the dull reality of living. --- The hard part is resisting action 80% of the time; this is much more difficult than the trading itself. --- Stop-loss quickly, make money slowly, sounds simple but is deadly to implement. Why do so many people do the opposite? --- It's really a test of discipline. This example isn't fancy at all, but it's more solid. --- Waiting every day is indeed boring, but boring strategies tend to last the longest, I get that. --- The true essence of small capital recovery is so simple, much more reliable than those so-called big V secrets.

Damn, you want me to be honest? I am the one who turned that 1500U into a negative number. If only I had been disciplined like that back then, I wouldn't be so bitter now.

Basically, it's about not being greedy; everything else is nonsense. Execution is the key.

In simple terms, it's the art of doing nothing, which most people can't achieve.
