Starting from ten yuan at the entrance of a milk tea shop, to now regularly withdrawing living expenses every month, this experience has taught me a truth: big capital plays with size, small accounts compete with discipline.

I still remember the day I made my first deposit, there were only ten yuan in my account. Like all beginners, I was full of dreams of "getting rich overnight," but in less than 24 hours, I was left with only two. That feeling was indeed tough, but it also became my best teacher. Since then, I started pondering a question: how does a small principal grow?

The answer is simple—it's not leverage, but position sizing. Many people think leverage equals risk, but that's not true. What can really wipe you out is never the leverage multiple, but putting in too much money at once. My approach is to only use at most five yuan out of ten to open a position, while the other five yuan stays in the account as insurance. Even with 100x leverage, the actual margin used is less than 0.05 yuan, leaving enough to withstand any sudden spike.

The next key words are take profit and stop loss. I always exit at 50% profit; after turning ten yuan into fifteen, I no longer watch the market regardless of how much it moves. Why? Because greed will eat up small accounts, and stable small gains can be accumulated repeatedly, eventually growing into a large number. Conversely, stop loss must be strict. Once I placed an order and the market moved against me, when the stop loss was triggered, I didn’t hesitate and accepted a loss of one yuan. If I had still been thinking "hold on, it might rebound," that loss could have been everything.

Now, my account has grown from the initial ten yuan to several tens of thousands, and I can reliably withdraw five thousand each month as income. This is not luck; it’s the result of countless small wins and timely stops. The game rule for small funds is like this—whoever can control their desires, wins.
