Many people have made this mistake: opening an account with 100U, then thinking "It's just a small amount, just play around." Losing is fine; wait until the account reaches 10,000U before taking it seriously.

Where is the most fatal flaw in this logic? It completely reverses the correct approach.

If you can't even manage 100U well, how can you truly hold onto 10,000U? The answer is no. If you habitually chase gains and sell-offs, ignore stop-losses, and go all-in, then when your money multiplies tenfold, you're just magnifying the same bad habits by ten times. The only difference is—the amount of loss becomes an astonishing number.

There's also a more hidden trap: the percentage trap.

Losing 50U doesn't sound like much. But that's a 50% loss. To recover? You need a 100% gain. How many people in the market can achieve 100% consecutive gains? That's why many small accounts are wiped out completely.

The key issue is that you treat a small account as a cash machine or gambling tool, which is actually training your gambler's mindset, not trading thinking. You're chasing that instant dopamine rush, not consistently executing your trading plan. You're not learning to understand the market; you're just learning to keep "betting."

Therefore, every penny should be treated as responsibly as managing a complete trading team.

The practical advice is simple: don't focus on specific numbers, focus on percentages. Treat your 100U account as if you're managing a fund with 10 million in assets, and apply the same discipline.

If you can steadily turn 100U into 200U, that's a real sign you're ready for a bigger stage. Respect for small money often determines the fate of large money.
