Many people enter this market with dreams of overnight riches, but I have to be honest—making money isn't wrong, as long as you don't gamble recklessly.

I started with just a few thousand yuan, not a big shot, just a retail trader making a living through trading. Now, my account has accumulated over fifty million. Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter; the key point is that all of this was built up step by step.

I never care about how much I can make in one move, only whether the opportunity is worth taking.

Growing a small capital into a large one actually involves three stages, and today I will break down this entire process.

**Stage One: Practice with small amounts, focus on survival.**

Start with 1,000 yuan, build positions in 5 trades, 200 yuan each time. What's the benefit of this approach? Every trade has a clear stop-loss and take-profit level. No chasing rallies, no killing dips, no stubbornly holding onto losses, and no betting against the trend. Only take opportunities you understand. The most important KPI at this stage is—don't lose money. Keep this line intact, and only then is a turnaround possible.

**Stage Two: The account begins to grow, and strategies are adjusted accordingly.**

When the principal reaches 10,000 yuan, I control each position to about a quarter of the total funds. At this point, if the market moves strongly in your favor, add to your positions gradually, only capturing the most profitable part of the trend—don't chase the initial and final fluctuations. Most people get stuck here, seeing the right direction but holding on too heavy, and when the opposite trend hits, they get wiped out.

**Stage Three: The true logic of making money.**

After the account surpasses 200,000 yuan, I develop a habit—withdraw a portion of profits every week. Not because I fear losses, but to prevent myself from getting reckless. As the account gets bigger, it's easy to get carried away, and once you lose control, you can wipe out everything in one shot. Stability is the most profitable approach.

Why do so many people blow up in this market? Ultimately, it boils down to three root problems: terrible position management, stubbornly holding through stops, and having the right direction but losing composure.

A friend of mine who exchanges ideas with me started with 900 yuan and grew it to 18,000. Just a few days ago, he withdrew the funds and excitedly spent two hours sharing his journey with me late into the night. Watching him go from zero to where he is now is quite healing.

In this circle, making money doesn't require a gambler's mentality. With rhythm, control, and the right method, small money can really grow into big money. I used to be lost in the crypto waves, but now, those who can steady the ship are actually those who understand how to take profits and cut losses.

I've already paved this path. If you want to try, the approach is right here.
