Many people ask me how to achieve steady growth in this market cycle. Honestly, anxiety is normal— but if you get the method right, the results will be different. In the first half of the year, I turned an initial $2,800 into nearly $70,000 in 60 days, without staying up late watching the charts, avoiding altcoins, and without using high leverage—just relying on three practical systems I repeatedly refined. Today, I’ll break down these experiences.

**Capital Allocation: Never Go All-In**

This is my first iron rule. Divide your funds into three parts, each with a clear purpose.

The short-term portion allows for a maximum of two trades per day. Take profits when around 3% is achieved and exit—no greed, no attachment. This part is used to seize intraday volatility opportunities, but the pace is fast.

The trend-following portion is based entirely on larger cycles—such as whether the weekly chart is above key moving averages, or if the price can break through previous highs. Only after confirmation do I consider positioning. Once a 30% profit is reached, I immediately withdraw half of the principal to lock in gains, and set a trailing stop on the remaining position to let profits continue to grow. Mainstream coins like SOL and BTC show the clearest results when confirming trends.

There’s also an emergency reserve fund, specifically for extreme situations, but never add more funds to try to reverse the situation.

See, in a choppy market, the biggest risk is going all-in— a small fluctuation can blow your mindset. Properly allocating funds helps you stay calm amid various market changes.

**Only Trade What You Understand, Stay Silent Otherwise**

Where do beginners most easily get wiped out? In sideways markets, frequently entering and exiting, chasing highs and selling lows, ending up not even covering transaction fees.

I set a strict rule for myself: only act when the big trend is confirmed— specifically, when the daily chart shows a bullish alignment of moving averages with increased volume breaking key levels. Apart from that, I don’t participate in overly lively markets.

About half the year, the market was consolidating sideways. Many people were glued to their screens, exhausted. I took that time to exercise and spend time with family. When real opportunities appear, I go all in. The benefit? Better psychological stability and less temptation to make impulsive moves.

**Risk Management: Details Decide Success or Failure**

In trading, you often lose more times than you win, but you must ensure that when you do win, the gains are enough. Place stop-losses 3-5% below support levels. Once triggered, exit decisively—don’t be soft.

For volatile coins like SOL, I set wider stop-losses to give them more breathing room. For more stable large-cap coins, I tighten the stops.

Another often overlooked point—don’t let the行情 of a single coin dictate your entire portfolio. I always diversify risk across 3-5 different trading pairs. Even if one coin performs poorly, the overall account fluctuation remains within a manageable range.

In short, steady growth isn’t achieved by one big win, but by accumulating many small wins. When the market signals a clear trend, you’ll have built enough capital and psychological readiness— that’s the real opportunity to double down.
