#美国核心物价涨幅不及市场预估 Why do small funds always lose when trading cryptocurrencies? 99% of people are asking the wrong question.



They ask, "How to double quickly," but the problem is fundamentally misposed from the start. The real question should be, "How to survive long enough."

I've seen too many people split thirty thousand yuan into thirty parts, daily scanning charts and placing small trades, fantasizing that earning 5% each time will compound into wealth. But what happens? Half of the gains are eaten up by fees, and a few misjudgments quickly deplete the principal. Frequent trading is essentially suicide for small investors.

My approach is completely opposite—rather than making a hundred small trades, it's better to precisely seize one or two big opportunities that can change your fate.

**First Tip: Train Your Patience**

Don’t stare at the K-line charts every day; that can drive you crazy. Instead, look at the monthly and weekly charts to identify key levels that have been repeatedly validated by history. Wait until when? Until you can confidently say, "It’s low here, statistically."

Honestly, such opportunities might only occur once or twice a year. But those one or two times often determine the year's overall gains or losses.

**Second Tip: When Opportunity Knocks, Dare to Go All-In**

Many people fear diversifying risk, but with small capital, what right do you have to diversify? If your capital is already small, spreading it out further is basically suicidal.

At a well-identified level, go all-in. But here’s a bottom line you must never break: set a stop-loss point (for example, 10% below the previous low). Once hit, exit unconditionally. Don’t feel guilty, don’t bottom-fish, don’t add to your position—these are common traps that blow up accounts.

If successful, hold tight; if you fail, accept the loss cleanly.

**Third Tip: Profit Protection Technique**

When you double your investment for the first time, the first thing to do is withdraw all the principal. This way, your account from that moment on operates at "zero cost."

After that? Every time you double, take out half of the profits. Never think about reinvesting that money again; it’s the only line of defense to protect unrealized gains.

**What is the true core?**

Reduce your trading desire and replace it with patience for that once-in-a-lifetime big opportunity. Most of the time, you should do nothing—stay in cash.

High volatility with small funds isn’t a reason to trade frequently; it’s an invitation to wait for a turning point. The more you can endure, the more you can earn. Slow and steady is the fastest route for small funds.

That's right, it's really about patience to make money. I used to be the kind of fool who watched the market every day, and in the end, most of the profit was eaten up by fees.

It's a bit harsh, but it really hits the point. The group of people who watch the market every day, their brains are already blown before their accounts even blow up.

Really? Those who stare at the market every day are just committing suicide. I've seen too many people like that. The key is to hold back; there are only one or two opportunities a year to change your fate.

Damn, this theory is still the same, I’ve tried the stop-loss rule countless times but just can't do it. It’s heartbreaking.

That's so right, frequent trading just means paying transaction fees. I used to watch the market every day too, and ended up losing everything. Really, waiting for that one or two big opportunities is the key; only by holding back can you make a profit.
