Playing with small profits is a play safe when it comes in trading.
At the same time, you might need to keep trading for more number of times compared to what if you target one big profits. I mean there is a saying about trading, "
more the trades, more the loss". But if you're technically targeting small profits and your entry and exits are supported by technical analysis then I guess there will not be any big problems.
In trading, we should not be greedy because too much greediness can cause as zero capital and rekt.
I guess only out of maturity level, traders can get into the state of accepting small profits. Because, you need to control your emotions like, even there are visibly possibilities for making more profits but you should control your greediness to book profits to finish off your trading safe.
Act accordingly and you'll be able to execute good trades.
This seems more appropriate way of trading. If there are possibilities for making more profits then we can go for it and if market seems more fluctuating than we should accept small profits. It means there cannot be no fixed targets but we should trade according to market conditions.
