Everyone who enters the circle thinks about doubling their wealth, but I have to say something from the heart – to make big money, you must first learn how not to lose money.



I started with only 1200U, and I was trembling a lot, but because my capital was small, I forced myself to develop discipline. After four months, my account broke 80,000, and in half a year it grew to 200,000, all without any liquidation. It wasn't luck; it was a strategy that allowed me to survive and make money.

**First Move: Layered Funding, Surviving is the Priority**

I divide 1200U into three parts, each part being 400U, each with its own responsibilities.

The first approach is day trading - only trade BTC and ETH, take advantage of 2%-4% fluctuations, and avoid giving yourself the chance to be greedy. The second approach is for swing accumulation - only take action when a clear signal appears, holding positions for a few days to seek stability and certainty. The third approach is to treat it as emergency funds - this money should not be touched at all; it is your trump card for a comeback.

I have seen many traders who go all-in with their entire position; they are euphoric when the price rises and panicked when it falls, and they simply cannot go far. Diversification is the prerequisite for survival.

**Second Tip: Only follow the trend, don't fight against the fluctuations**

The market spends most of its time in a sideways movement, which tests human nature the most—either fidgeting aimlessly or honestly watching the show. My approach is to not act without a trend; I only get on board when a trend appears.

When my profit reaches 12%, I will withdraw half first; only when the money is truly in my pocket do I feel secure. Those who pursue doubling their investment often fall victim to greed. I was able to roll from 1200 to 200,000 by steadily taking profits, not chasing highs, and not being enslaved by anxiety.

**Third Tip: Rule Locking, Don't Let Emotions Be Your Trader**

This is the hardest rule: If a single loss reaches 1.2%, you must cut your losses and exit without hesitation. If profits exceed 2.5%, immediately reduce your position by half, and let the remaining portion run according to the market. Never average down on losses, as those who do are often emotionally driven rather than rational.

You don't need to get every order right, but you must follow the rules for each order. The rules are like the skeleton of trading; without them, the market will fall apart at the slightest breeze.

The amount of principal isn't scary; what's scary is acting chaotically out of anxiety. From 1200U to 200,000U, it's not about a single big market event, but rather countless instances of disciplined execution. Each time you follow the rules, time will help you accumulate that wealth.

If you are also exploring on the path with a small principal and want to find a stable growth logic, this methodology is worth trying seriously.

You're not wrong, but it's really hard to execute. Every time my hands shake, I just want to buy the dip.

You're not wrong, but it's really hard to implement. I also want to stick to the rules, but I get antsy when I look at the market.

There's nothing wrong with what you said, it's just difficult to execute. Most people still fall at the first hurdle.

To be honest, I've been using that trap for a long time, but there aren't many who can stick with it. Most of them fail due to emotions.
