Friends with limited capital, I need to be honest with you. #美联储回购协议计划 $BTC


The crypto world isn't a place for guessing games; it's about brains and rhythm.

The tighter the funds, the more stability you need. I once personally coached a newcomer whose account only had $800. He was trembling when placing orders, afraid that one mistake would wipe out his principal.

My advice to him was simple: "Follow the rules, and you'll gradually succeed."

Four months later, his account grew to over $19,000; two months after that, it shot up to $28,000. Throughout the process, he never got liquidated once.

Some say it's luck? Don't be ridiculous. It's all about strict discipline.

Here are three rules that saved his small account:

**First: Divide your money into three parts, leave a backup**

$300 for intraday quick trades, focusing only on short-term fluctuations of Bitcoin and Ethereum, taking profits at 2%-4%;

$250 for swing trading, waiting for clear opportunities before acting, holding positions for 2-4 days;

The remaining $250 must be held firmly, no matter how crazy the market gets—this is the capital for a turnaround. Have you seen those who put all their assets in at once? Making a little profit and getting cocky, then crashing when prices fall—such accounts don't last long. Truly profitable traders are willing to keep some funds on the sidelines.

**Second: Follow the trend, don't mess around during sideways markets**

Eighty percent of the market time is boring sideways movement. Frequent trading just adds fees to the exchange.

If there's no opportunity, sit tight. When signals appear, act decisively.

Take half of your profits at 12%, and let the rest run. The best traders operate on the principle: "Stay still, but when you move, move hard."

**Third: Write your rules in stone, don't let emotions control you**

Set a maximum loss per trade at 1.2%; cut at that point, no negotiations.

When profits exceed 2.5%, cut your position in half immediately; let the remaining half follow the trend.

Never add to a losing position—don't let emotions drown you. You don't have to predict every market move perfectly, but you must always stick to your rules.

The secret to making money is relying on a system that suppresses the desire to act recklessly.

Remember, small capital isn't scary; what’s really dangerous is the mindset of "turning it all around in one shot." Growing from $800 to $28,000 isn't about luck—it's about rules, patience, and discipline.

Once, I was blindly wandering in darkness. Now, I have a lamp in my hand.

The light is always on—are you coming or not?

Sounds nice, but why didn't I seize the opportunity... Now I'm fully invested and stuck, waiting to break even.

To be honest, I've been using this three-part logic for a while now, but it's a bit tough... The sideways trading period really can wear you down.

The consultation records show that this risk management framework indeed performs robustly in clinical practice—positioning, stop-loss discipline, and emotional isolation—all of which cover the prevention of complications for small accounts. However, regular reviews are necessary, as the risks of sideways market wear and exchange fees are easily overlooked. It is recommended to add liquidity indicator monitoring.
