The Power of Small Wins: Growing Your Account Slowly but Surely

A few weeks ago, someone in our community told me, “Sir, I just want to double my account this month. If I can turn $500 into $1,000, I’ll be happy.”

I smiled and asked, “How long do you think Sangakkara took to score a century? One ball? Or a hundred carefully played deliveries?”

That’s the problem most traders face — they want the sixes, but they forget about the singles.

Why Small Wins Matter More Than Big Wins

  1. Consistency beats luck

    • One big win feels exciting, but if your next five trades are losses, your account shrinks.

    • Small, steady profits add up without the stress.

  2. Small wins build confidence

    • Every successful trade, even if it’s 1–2%, strengthens your discipline.

    • Over time, this habit shapes you into a pro.

  3. Compounding is your secret weapon

    • If you grow 2% per week, that’s not just 8% a month — it compounds into big results over the year.

    • It’s like saving Rs. 100 every day. At first it feels small, but one year later, you look back and see the pile.

💡 Quick Tip:
Set a goal to grow your account by a percentage, not a random “big number.” Even 1–3% growth per week is a success.
