So, the reason many investors/traders lose their deposit is because they make money too quickly and don't have the discipline to keep it.

A simple system that will help most traders is to implement goals and "reset" points:

1. Set a profit goal (for example, $100 thousand).

2. As soon as you reach it, make a "reset" of your starting capital (for example, return to $5 thousand, and withdraw the profit to the real world). And double your "reset" point every cycle.

3. Repeat the process to maintain discipline.

Example:
• Start with $5 thousand → Grow to $100 thousand
• Next time, reset the starting capital to $10 thousand → Strive for the next goal

If you don't have any rules to follow, you will lose the profit faster than you earned it.
