Full-time trading for 56 days, the account shrank from 187 to 94—cut in half.
These days I've been asking myself one question: can small funds really not grow big? I see people around me starting with a few thousand yuan and eventually reaching a million-level, so theoretically it's possible. But reality is cruel; the time cost is right there, and the profits earned in a month of hard work might be less than just delivering takeout. Is it worth it? That's the question.
What does a small capital mean? It means each trade has very little room for error; one or two misjudgments can cut the principal in half. I am an example.
But these past two days, I realized one thing. Trading is essentially a game of probability, gambling too—only the rules you play by differ. The true determinants of winning or losing are not how complex the technical or fundamental analysis is, but whether you can stay rational amid volatility. Removing emotions, focusing on high-probability actions—sounds simple, but actually doing it is extremely difficult. But this is the only way.
Take a few days to adjust the strategy, then set out again. Wait until the new plan is ready.

Cut in half to 50% in 56 days. Looking at this data in Excel, it's clear that the risk factor is exceeding the limit. Small funds have no volatility tolerance; a single misjudgment directly leads to game over. This is a critical flaw.

Cut in half in 56 days... Bro, this is intense. But to be fair, small funds are just like that—sharp-tongued but soft-hearted.
Delivering takeout is more stable than trading... Haha, it's quite ironic.

A 56-day halving, this is the reality for small funds... To put it simply, it's still a matter of not keeping a steady mindset.

56 days halved, brother, this move is indeed ruthless. But to be honest, trading with small funds is all about playing the odds; lose one or two times and you're out.
