#大户持仓动态 From 1500U to 600,000U: My Three Survival Rules $ETH $XRP



Initially, I was a rookie too—blown accounts, working overtime, skipping all the newbie pitfalls. Now, my account is stable around 600,000U, not because I can predict the market, but because I am bound by discipline.

**Phase One: Practice with 1500U, surviving is winning**

Divide the principal into 5 parts, each 300U. What’s the benefit of doing this? It directly reduces the probability of emotional breakdown by 80%.

Set a 5% stop-loss each time; take profits in batches if gains exceed 10%. Avoid contrarian trades; if you don’t understand, stay out of the market.

At this stage, don’t think about making big money. Focus on repeatedly practicing stop-loss actions until they become instinctive—when losing money, your hands should tremble and you must press the stop-loss button.

**Phase Two: After reaching 120,000U, use profits to gamble**

Tactics change. No single position exceeds a quarter of the total funds, so even if you hit a bad trade, you won’t wipe out.

Add positions only under one condition: after identifying the trend, enter gradually at the pullback points. Don’t chase the start of a move (market beginning), and don’t wait until the end (market nearly over). The stable profits in the middle are the real gold.

Core principle: Use the money earned to take risks, while the principal remains untouched. Losing doesn’t hurt; winning doubles your capital.

**Phase Three: Over 250,000U, you must learn to withdraw profits**

At this level, rules become stricter: 30% of weekly profits must be withdrawn and stored in a cold wallet.

Money already withdrawn is never reinvested. Keep position limits at 50%; even if the market is perfect, don’t go all-in.

This is the only way to fight human greed.

**Why do so many people still blow up their accounts in the end?**

It’s simple—out-of-control positions (going all-in from the start, a single pullback can wipe you out); hopefulness (reluctant to stop-loss after losses, small losses turn into big ones); emotional hijacking (chasing gains and selling at losses, frequent trading just to relieve anxiety).

The hardest part in crypto isn’t predicting the market, but controlling yourself. Overestimating luck and underestimating the value of discipline.

I’ve seen traders turn 1200U into 40,000U in three months. One thing he said left a deep impression: "I used to think making money depended on being brave. Now I realize, it’s actually about not doing anything."

Opportunities do pass quickly, but more important than the chance itself is that set of rules that keeps you alive long enough.

Discipline is easy to talk about but hard to practice. I'm the kind of useless person who knows I should set a stop loss but is too soft to do it.

Discipline is really more valuable than anything else; I just refuse to change, and that's what makes me lose the most.

Stop-loss really is a touchstone for discipline, and that's true.

Discipline really is money; everything else is just虚的

You're right, the hardest part is those two words: discipline... Back then, I didn't stick to that 5% stop-loss line, and a single pullback directly led to a complete wipeout. Now I have psychological shadows from it, haha.

Discipline is easy to talk about, but when your hands are truly trembling, there are very few times you can actually press through.

It sounds like a discipline master, but to be honest, how many people can truly stick to this set of rules?
