The performance report for the small account on day five is out. Starting with a principal of 10u, the account has now grown to 400u.
It's quite interesting. First, I followed the trend and made a profit when $AT surged. Then $AIOT also started to take off. I put in 27u, and during that time, I kept an eye on the screen as the numbers kept jumping, feeling quite pleased. But this time I learned to be smart—taking profits when the time is right and closing the position directly. I’m too lazy to keep watching; staying up late to monitor the market is too exhausting.
But there is a lesson behind this. In early October, I made a total profit of 28,000, and I started to get cocky, not taking profits in time. As a result, a correction hit me hard—ultimately losing 400u. Greed is truly the biggest enemy in trading.
This round of market activity taught me that taking profits promptly and managing risks is much more reliable than constantly staring at the screen trying to chase perfect returns. Now I plan to rest for a few days to stabilize my mindset.

10u to 400u, this move is indeed fierce, but I think the real truth is that you lost 400u in the later part haha

10u multiplied by 40 times? Bro, are you serious, or are you just making up stories again?

10u blew up to 400u? Damn, this wave's mentality is really solid, unlike the time I was so greedy I almost vomited blood.

Well, this time I finally learned my lesson. Last time, I couldn't resist at 28,000 and almost vomited everything out.

Damn, starting with 10U is really aggressive, but I still need to remember the lesson from last time when I didn't take profit at 28k.
