In the crypto world, it's not about who earns faster, but who can last longer.

I have been struggling in the crypto world for five years. From early mining to later DeFi mining, and now stable trading operations, I have experienced the despair of liquidation and the thrill of a hundredfold return. In the end, what truly remains is not a secret to getting rich overnight, but a set of practical rules that allow me to continue making profits.

If you have 1000U and want to turn it into 10000U, but are afraid of losing it all with one wrong move, then today's experience sharing might help you. These rules may seem ordinary, but they are all hard-earned lessons I've learned with real money.

**Rule One: Fund allocation is the foundation for survival**

When I first entered the market, I also dreamed of betting all my capital on one coin, thinking I could multiply it tenfold in one go. As the market fluctuated, I couldn't sleep all night, regretting it.

Now my approach is completely different, dividing 1000U into three parts to operate:

**Short-term Aggressive Team (350U)** — Used for short-term trading, but I set a strict rule for myself: a maximum of two trades per day, and if I make a mistake, I stop loss immediately and never average down the cost. The benefit of this approach is limited losses, and it helps to maintain a stable mindset.

**Medium-term Stable Troops (350U)** — Only look at trends above the weekly level, and once the direction is unclear, let go and wait. If there are no good opportunities, it’s better to stay in cash than to blindly bet. This part will not operate frequently.

**Emergency Reserve (300U)** — This is my "lifesaver". When the market crashes or extreme conditions arise, it gives me breathing room and the opportunity to buy the dip. Most of the time, this portion of money just lies quietly.

In the crypto world, surviving is the biggest victory. Many people have made money, but they lack the ability to keep it. A reasonable capital allocation plan can give you enough resilience during drastic market fluctuations.

**Rule Two: Go with the trend, don't try to catch the whole fish**

I have seen too many traders obsessed with every turn of the 15-minute charts and 1-hour charts, trying to catch the bottom and escape the top. What’s the result? Most of the time, they make a little bit of pocket change, and if they miss just once, they lose everything.

Learning to let go of the obsession with "perfect entry" and "perfect exit" has been a turning point for me. The core of trend trading is: continue to go long on strong coins and absolutely avoid weak coins. As for the small fluctuations in between? That is not what I am concerned about at all.

Real profits come from seizing the middle segment of a big market trend. There is no need to catch the whole fish; just grabbing the fattest part of the fish's body is enough.
