The hard part of trading isn't executing trades, it's the discipline and patience to stay profitable. You can't turn a small account into wealth without managing risk. Build your strategy around limiting drawdown, not chasing returns, or you'll blow up.
The difficult part, guys, is not trading. The difficult part is the patience and the work that you need to put to become a profitable trader. Check your expectation. You cannot get rich with a small account. Don't check the return, check the drawdown and base the model that you use based on the drawdown, not on the return. Because if you are not doing this, probably you will never check the return. You will only check the drawdown and you will have a huge risk of ruin.
