Friends with less than 1000U in hand, don't rush to get started yet—listen to me explain.
The crypto world has never been a casino; it's an arena of strategy. When you have less money, you need to be more cautious, like a hunter waiting for the right moment. Last year, I mentored a newbie with only 600U in his account. At first, even clicking the buy button made him nervous, fearing that one trade would wipe out his principal.
I told him: "Follow the rules, even with small funds, you can succeed."
A month later? His account grew to 6000U. After three months, it broke through 20,000U, and throughout the process, he never got liquidated once.
Some say this is luck? Wrong. It all comes down to strictly following trading discipline.
That 600U account has now developed into three "life-saving and profit-making" rules, which I will lay out for you today.
**Rule 1: Diversify and Keep a Backup**
Never put all your capital into one shot. Divide it into three parts:
The first part, 200U, is for intraday volatility—only trade Bitcoin and Ethereum, and take profits immediately with 3%-5% swings, quick in and out.
The second part, another 200U, is for swing trading. Not trading every day, but waiting for clear opportunities, holding for three to five days, focusing on safety.
The remaining 200U? Keep it sitting in your account, untouched, no matter how crazy the market gets. This is your life-saving capital, ready to rescue you at critical moments.
You've probably seen those traders risking thousands of U in a single shot, right? When the market rises, they smile; when it falls, they panic. Such tactics can't last long. True long-term traders in crypto understand one thing: always keep some funds outside the market as a backup.
**Rule 2: Follow the Trend, Don't Waste Energy in Volatility**
Most of the time, the market oscillates back and forth. Those who trade frequently every day are actually just paying platform fees.
Wait patiently for clear signals; when a real opportunity appears, strike decisively. That's the rhythm. Take half of your profits when you reach 12%, and lock in the rest. The money in your hands feels more secure.
I saw that guy's account doubling—his approach was like this: when not trading, he could endure patience; when an opportunity came, he seized it and reaped rewards. Never chasing highs or messing around. Steady hands.
**Rule 3: Rules First, Let the System Control Your Hands**
Strictly limit each trade's stop-loss to within 2% of your principal. When the stop-loss point hits, exit decisively—no negotiations.
Once you make more than 4% profit, immediately reduce half of your position, letting the remaining profits run.
Most importantly: when losing money, never add to your position. Don't let emotions dictate your decisions.
You don't have to predict the market perfectly every time, but you must follow the rules every time. Making money ultimately relies on a method that locks your impulsive mind away.
Remember this: having less capital isn't the problem; the real issue is that "big comeback" mentality. Turning 600U into 20,000U isn't luck—it's about rules, patience, and discipline.
If you're still struggling to figure out how to start, try following these three rules. With the right strategy and persistence, even small funds can grow.

To be honest, I agree with this decentralized configuration logic, but 600U in three months breaking 20,000... what kind of bullish market does that take?
It all sounds right, but can you really hold back when it comes to execution?

Exactly right, but I'm just worried that after reading, people will still go all-in with their entire position.

600U to 20,000? I thought the same last year, and now I'm still hovering around 888U haha... But honestly, I agree with this diversified approach, I just can't help but touch that "life-saving money."
Diversified allocation sounds good in theory, but when it comes to execution... can you really control yourself? I have my doubts.
Oh, wait, I think the key is not to go all-in. Anyway, I've been someone who went all-in before, and that feeling... forget it, I won't mention it.
This discipline, to be honest, is against human nature, but those who make money are indeed doing this. I tried it for a while, then started messing around again, helpless.

This set of principles sounds good, but how many people can really stick to it?
---
600U to 20,000, it sounds outrageous, but I believe in this guy's discipline.
---
Stop-loss at 2%, 4% and then reduce positions. It sounds conservative, but this way you can really last longer.
---
The worst thing is those who start off confidently, and as soon as the market rises, go all-in.
---
Having a backup plan is real; I’ve suffered from not having a fallback before.
---
What he says is correct, but the hard part is execution. Most people simply can't wait those three or five days.
---
The question is, who can really avoid adding to their positions? When losing money, their mind is clouded.

That's right, I'm just worried about that all-in mentality, which really forces you to lock yourself down.
But I think the key is that 2% stop-loss. It sounds simple, but it's really hard to do. It's especially easy to break down when losing money.
Here's a joke: I also messed around like this, and the result was... the account was gone, understand?
These three rules are reasonable, but execution is the real obstacle. If you don't believe it, look at those brothers who go all-in in less than a month.
