#数字资产动态追踪 Someone often asks me: "The market is so volatile, and I don't have much money. Is it still worth entering?"
Honestly, I was in the same situation back then—only $2,000 left in my account. I didn't even dare to open my eyes wide when placing orders, afraid that one wrong move would wipe me out completely.
But with just that $2,000, I eventually grew it to $42,000. It wasn't luck; it was a simple capital management strategy.
**Tip 1: Stop dreaming of doubling your position overnight**
I divided the $2,000 into four equal parts, only risking $500 each time. Once I earned an 8% profit, I immediately withdrew that profit as the starting capital for the next trade. The principal always remains unchanged. The benefit of this approach is that even if I lose in the following trades, only the profits are lost, ensuring the safety of the original capital.
**Tip 2: Treat stop-loss as a discipline**
I allow myself to make judgment errors, but I absolutely do not permit losses to expand without limit. Before entering each trade, I set the stop-loss level in advance. When the price hits the stop-loss, I exit immediately, without giving myself the excuse to "wait a little longer." As long as the principal is protected, I have countless opportunities to start over.
**Tip 3: Add positions only in confirmed trends**
I don't trade repeatedly in consolidating markets. I wait until the trend is clear and the pattern is complete before cautiously adding to my position with the accumulated profits, allowing profits to run further. Most of the market time is spent gathering strength; real profit opportunities are actually only a few times.
The entire process took 48 days. There are no secrets, no miracles—just continuous management of positions and rhythm. The biggest test isn't technical skill, but whether you can resist greed when your account is growing, and stay calm during drawdowns.
Small funds need to turn around, not by making a huge gamble once, but by surviving long enough. The longer you survive, the more likely you are to wait for the big opportunity.
