Compound interest

For an example scenario, if you trade with a capital of $10 with a payout of 90%, your earnings will progress as follows:
| Times | Wins |
|---|---|
| 1 | $19 |
| 2 | $36.1 |
| 3 | $68.59 |
| 4 | $130,321 |
| 5 | $247.6 |
| 6 | $470 |
| 7 | $893 |
| 8 | $1698 |
With this method, even if you lose at 8th, you will only lose your $10. And you only need to win 2 times in a row to payback.
This method is suitable for trading with low capital and you have a chance of winning in hand.

This method is not psychologically heavy because it starts with very small amounts.
But in fact, the problem is that you do not preserve the money you make. You may have a relaxed mindset, but you will always fail if you do not know where to stop. So consider your goals when you want to use this capital management strategy.
Martingale strategy
Martingale is a recover capital management strategy that is seen as an effective capital recovery method. However, it only works if you have a huge amount of capital at over $1000. https://traderrr.com/martingale-trading-strategy-trading-definition-and-uses/
The rule of thumb is that you double your stake every time you lose to always get at least $1 in profit. Because it is a progressive form, if you lose, you will lose a lot, however, your rate of return is very high. Below is an example with 80% Payout:
With the starting $1, if you lose 7 times in a row you lose $1093. However, the possibility of losing 7 times in a row is really low, according to calculations it will only be at 0.4%. The rate decrease to 0.2% at the 8th time, 0.1% at the 9th time. So this can also be called a safe way.
But many traders say this approach not working. This method will withdraw your capital very quickly if the first losing trade costs a lot of money. Because of that, as mentioned above, this method is only for people with large-cap.
For professional traders, losing orders is a surprise in the data rather than a wrong analysis. So, Martingale is just a way to recover your capital.
