Whether trading can be done in the long term depends entirely on oneself.

How much "risk resistance" do you have in the market? It all depends on how much capital you have invested in it — as long as the investment is reasonable, even if unexpected situations arise, at most, you will only lose the money in the market, which will not affect your fundamental life.

Don't complain about the small principal; it's true that you want to make money when entering the market, but losses are something everyone cannot avoid.

So before making a deposit, you need to be prepared for the possibility of losses and be able to accept them.

Moreover, in the secondary market trading, the amount of capital is not important; as long as it meets the minimum opening conditions, it is sufficient. This is because traders assess profit and loss based on "risk (R)" and can decide for themselves how much they are willing to lose on each trade.

For example, suppose you make 1 trade every day, with a win rate of 40%, and you can invest 3000 yuan of spare money each month.

Then you can set each risk R to 100 yuan, with 30 transactions in a month. Even in extreme cases where all 30 transactions result in losses, it would only be a loss of the spare money for that month and would not affect daily expenses.

If you want to compound, you can also set R as a percentage of the account's net value.

As long as there is stable spare money outside the market, and proper capital management and risk control are in place, one can "withstand losses" in the market. By staying in the market and taking it slow, there will always be opportunities.

If you truly know how to trade, you can accumulate wealth even with a small capital; if you keep losing, it won't matter how much capital you have.

As for those who want to sell their house or car to raise money for a big gamble, I can only say it’s a personal choice, but the risks are too high.
