After being in the crypto world for so long, the most common phrase I hear is "get rich overnight." But reality is often harsh—most people's outcomes after entering are face-slapping.

I have a friend who initially invested only 1000U. In two months, his account grew to 45,000U. During this period, he didn't get liquidated nor experience major drawdowns. How did he do it? Not luck, just these three strategies—seemingly simple but extremely reliable.

**Tip 1: Never fully commit your position; split your funds**

How to allocate 1000U? Here's what he did:
- 300U for day trading, opening at most one order per day
- 300U for swing opportunities, only trading once every ten days or half a month
- 400U as "lifesaver money," so he could still turn things around if he suffered losses

This isn't conservative; it's a structured approach to keep options open. Going all-in, to put it bluntly, is gambling with your life.

**Tip 2: Only trade the easiest markets, avoid the rest**

Why are sideways markets the most dangerous? Because 80% of retail traders lose money here. When the trend is unclear, the smartest move is to stay out of the market.

Many people can't accept this and think that not trading equals loss. Little do they know, sometimes staying out is the best move. Only trade when the trend is crystal clear—that's not being timid, that's professionalism.

Here's a piece of advice: markets don't appear every day, but your life does.

**Tip 3: Stick to rules, clear your emotions**

Set stop-loss at 2%. Just like eating, when you're hungry, eat—no need to be pretentious.

When profits reach 4%, immediately cut half of your position. If your account profit exceeds 20% of your principal, transfer 30% of the profit to your wallet right away.

Most importantly: never add to a losing position. This is the real reason 90% of people can never turn their fortunes around. No gambling, no holding through losses, and definitely no hoping to "pull it back."

How is he now? His account has stabilized above 100,000U. More importantly, he no longer stays up all night watching the charts. He spends 10 minutes each day checking his positions, makes decisions accordingly, then calls it a day. That’s the normal trading life.

**To turn things around, remember this first**

Your principal must survive before you can talk about doubling. Position sizing, waiting for the right moment, controlling your fire—these may sound dull, but they save you three years of detours.

In a rush? The fastest way in crypto has always been—start slow.
