IF CAPITAL IS YOUR PROBLEM IN TRADING, READ THIS TO THE END A lot of people keep saying, “If only I had capital, I would be making crazy profits from trading.” But let’s be real for a second—if I gave you $500 right now, would you actually grow it? Be honest with yourself. Can you confidently flip a $10 account to $50? If not, then why are you so sure that capital is your only problem? If you truly have the skill, you don’t need a big account to prove it. Even with just $2 or $5, you should be able to show some level of consistency. If you can’t handle a small account, what makes you think you can handle a big one? Most people chasing capital haven’t even mastered the discipline, risk management, and patience needed to grow an account. They think a bigger balance will magically fix their bad habits, but in reality, it only exposes them more. THE HARSH TRUTH ABOUT CAPITAL The truth is, most traders who complain about capital are just looking for an excuse. They don’t want to admit that: ✅ They lack risk management. ✅ They overtrade and revenge trade. ✅ They blow small accounts because they can’t control greed. ✅ They don’t have a ‘strategy’ that actually works in the long run. Yet, they believe that if only they had $1,000, everything would be different. News flash: it wouldn’t. A bad trader with $10 is still a bad trader with $1,000. FIX THE REAL PROBLEM FIRST Instead of waiting for capital, start proving your skill. Here’s what you should focus on: •Grow a $5 or $10 account first. If you can’t flip small, you can’t grow big. •Always take profit and don’t be greedy •Backtest your strategy. If it doesn’t work on demo, it won’t magically work with real money. •Develop patience. You don’t need to trade every single move. If you can’t turn a small amount into something bigger, getting a funded account or a big deposit won’t change anything. The problem isn’t capital—it’s YOU. If you had the skill, you’d find a way to start, even if it’s with $2 or $5 (which is approximately what you spend on data subscription or Netflix), and mind you Deriv allows as low as $1 deposit. Stop lying to yourself. Focus on improving your trading, and the money will follow. So ask yourself again: Is capital really your problem? Or are you just making excuses?
