People who can go far in the crypto world are never the most aggressive ones; instead, they are the most disciplined.

A friend started with only $1,500 and, after three months, reached $100,000. Throughout the process, he never over-leveraged or chased high prices recklessly. In simple terms, he took it step by step, gradually absorbing the market movements. Behind this steady growth is not luck but a clear trading framework.

**Why Small Capital Is Prone to Crashes**

Those starting with low capital are most likely to fall into a strange cycle—the less capital they have, the more they want to quickly turn things around. The more they chase quick gains, the easier they are to make reckless moves. The market feeds on this. It first gives impatient traders small sweet spots, letting them taste a couple of profits, then at a turning point, it takes everything—principal and profits—away.

That fan was initially like this too. But then he found the key—two words: **Pace**.

**Four-Step Steady Growth Framework**

How to allocate $1,500? Divide it into three parts: only use one-third for the first entry. Keep the rest idle; don’t touch it without a clear signal. No averaging down, no bottom fishing, no stubborn holding. This is called position discipline.

How to choose the market? Avoid choppy markets—they are like meat grinders. Wait until the trend is clear before acting. Don’t try to eat a whole trend in one bite; break it into small waves. The probability of making money is much more important than chasing excitement.

How to use profits? After the first trade makes money, use "principal plus profits" to open the next position. This way, the position gradually enlarges, but the risk remains within controllable limits. Money is made by rolling it over, not by gambling.

When to exit? Exit when you see a take-profit signal—don’t be greedy. When others are still chasing highs, you’ve already secured your gains; when others are crying over margin calls, you’ve already locked in your profits. Doubling your money is just the result; being steady + precise + ruthless is the core.

**What Does Trading Depend On**

An interesting phenomenon: the most frequent traders often have the messiest trades. Accounts with small capital cannot withstand high-frequency fluctuations. Once losses start to grow, their mindset collapses. The more they try to make up for losses, the more they mess up, falling into a vicious cycle.

But the truth is—trading is never about bravado; it’s about rhythm. Master the rhythm, and profits will come naturally. For small funds to survive long-term, the first lesson is to learn "not to die recklessly." Because the most valuable skill isn’t a couple of big reversals, but mastering position sizing, precise entry points, and rhythm control—these fundamentals.

Winning consistently is the rarest thing in the crypto world.
