$PIPPIN was only $4,100 at its worst, but in three months it grew to $900,000. Some people are curious and ask me if I was extremely lucky. Actually, that's not the case.

During that time, I realized one thing, which later became the turning point that allowed me to grow from a small fund to a million: **Do less, do it right, and execute strictly**.

Honestly, at first I was also a typical retail investor. Restless, impulsive, thinking every day about doubling my position, but I always lost faster than I gained. Every time I looked at the charts, I felt the opportunity was right in front of me, and I would impulsively chase the highs and sell the lows. Back then, my account was like a roller coaster, constantly entering and exiting.

It wasn't until a certain moment that I realized the problem wasn't the market, but myself.

Since then, I completely "dumbed down" my trading. I abandoned complex indicator stacking and focused on three things: **Follow the trend, wait for clear setups, cut losses immediately if wrong, and start reducing positions once profitable**. It sounds ridiculously simple, but executing it requires overcoming many mental barriers.

The key is—once small funds start to grow, the path becomes smoother. With a stable mindset, decision-making becomes clearer, and you're no longer hostage to short-term fluctuations.

Now, many people ask me if small funds can still grow?

They can. But there's a prerequisite—stop doing reckless things.

The method has always been there; most people just haven't taken the first step correctly. The first step is: **Admit that your trading has problems, and then truly change it**. It's not enough to just tweak your strategy; from each trade onward, follow discipline strictly.
