Recently, I came across an interesting case of doubling a small amount of capital. Someone started with 1,500U, turned it into 28,000 in two months, and now the account has already surpassed 56,000—all without getting liquidated even once.

His strategy basically revolves around three main moves:

First, capital allocation. He splits the principal into three parts—500U specifically for intraday sniper trades, another 500U for swing trades to catch bigger moves, and the last 500U as a safety cushion. The biggest advantage of this? There’s always a fallback, so one wrong decision won’t wipe out everything.

Next, profit management. He stays put during sideways markets and only acts when a trend emerges. Whenever profits exceed 20% of the principal, he immediately cashes out 30% to lock in gains. Simply put, this is about trading time for space—one big win can last for a long time.

The most impressive part is his discipline in execution. If he loses 2%, he cuts the loss immediately; if he gains 4%, he reduces the position to lock in profits; and he never averages down in losing trades. He turns trading into a mechanical process, because emotions are poison in the market.

Small capital isn’t the problem—random, reckless trades are. If you put strict boundaries on risk, profits will naturally follow.
