Traders with less than 1,000 USDT, pay attention—don't rush in blindly. I want to share some practical insights with everyone.



Many people think that the crypto world relies on luck and intuition, but that's not the case. This space has its own rules and logic; those who follow the rules can survive longer. I once guided a friend who started with only 800U, and in two months, he reached 18,000U. Now his account is close to 30,000U, and he has never been liquidated during the entire process.

This is not a story of luck but a strategy system I have accumulated over years of trading. Starting with 5,000U, I used the same method to achieve stable trading. Today, I want to share this framework with you.

**First Rule: Divide your money into three parts, never go all-in**

Imagine your account as an army. 300U is the vanguard, used for intraday trading, focusing on BTC and ETH, the most liquid assets, capturing small fluctuations, and taking profits of 3 to 5 points before exiting. This part of the funds has the strongest liquidity, aiming for stable small gains.

Another 300U is the main force, used for swing trading. This portion doesn't need to be rushed; wait for big market signals—such as news about spot ETFs, Federal Reserve policy shifts, or clear technical breakouts—and then heavily invest, holding for 3 to 5 days, letting time work for you.

The remaining 400U is your bottom line and lifeline. No matter how the market moves—whether it surges or hits rock bottom—this money stays untouched. Its existence is insurance, your last chip to turn the tide. Remember: surviving is more important than making money. As long as your account stays alive, you still have a chance.

**Second Rule: Follow the trend, don’t always think about trading**

Most of the time in crypto, the market consolidates and oscillates. Frequent buying and selling will eat up a large portion of your profits in fees. On days without a clear trend, what’s the smartest choice? Turn off the candlestick chart, watch some shows, or sleep. Doing nothing is a hundred times better than reckless trading.

But when a real trend appears—such as BTC regaining a key support level or ETH breaking previous highs—don’t hesitate. Enter decisively and let your funds follow the trend. Once profits reach 15% of your initial capital, withdraw half to lock in gains. The remaining profits can continue to run in the market, but your principal is protected.

**Third Rule: Use rules to control emotions, don’t let emotions dominate your trading**

This might be the most crucial point. Set a stop-loss at 1.5%. When it hits, cut your losses immediately—no luck-based thinking. People are most prone to stupid decisions when losing—adding positions, holding on stubbornly, fantasizing about rebounds—these are signs your account is about to blow up.

When profits exceed 3%, immediately cut your position in half, allowing the remaining gains to run while locking in some results. During losses, absolutely avoid adding positions. Increasing positions while losing only drags you deeper into the pit.

The essence of trading is to let your system and rules command your fingers, not to let emotional swings control your decisions.

**Small capital is not a disadvantage**

Turning 800U into 30,000U is not due to luck or some advanced technical indicator; it’s just four words: no greed, no panic, follow the rules.

If you’re still worried about a few U’s rise or fall, or struggling with how to allocate funds, when to enter, or where to set stop-losses—that’s normal. Small accounts are prone to frequent trading and emotional decisions. But as long as you understand the logic behind these three rules and stick to them, account growth will come naturally.

I've heard the story of going from 800 to 30,000 too many times, but the key is that you can't stick with it, brother.

800U to 30,000U? Sounds good, but I feel like these numbers are just stories in the crypto world... Dividing into three parts is one idea, but in practice, emotional control is the hardest part. There's some truth to it, but no need to mythologize. The key is execution; most people can't even stick to it. This set of logic is sound in theory, but in reality? I see many people forget after reading. A 1.5% stop loss sounds conservative, but for small accounts, slippage can eat up half... Not going all-in is fine, but transaction fees are indeed easy to overlook. No matter how well you explain, in the end, it still depends on whether you can control your hands.

Rolling 800U to 30,000... sounds easy, but actually doing it can really crush your mentality.

800U to 30,000 sounds pretty intense, but I still don't trust these stories. Too many people claim to have the secret, but it's all just a routine to cut leeks.

It sounds quite right, but how many can truly stick to this discipline...

800U multiplied by 40 times? Is that real? I've heard this story too many times. It's always the same story—how everyone claims to know someone who made big money... Anyway, I don't believe it. Dividing into three parts is correct, but persistence is the hardest part; most people simply can't do it.

800U rolls to 30,000, essentially a matter of computing power return ratio. Only by treating limited funds as a mining pool for allocation can ROI be achieved.

800U skyrocketing to 30,000, easy to say, but can it really be replicated? It still seems to depend on the person.

80 to 30,000? Why do I feel like I've heard this story a hundred times... The real difficulty isn't the rules, but execution. Who can stay completely still and follow through?
