If you have less than 2000U in your account, don't rush to place an order, let me say a few words.

The crypto market is not a place for speed, but more like a marathon that tests endurance. When the capital is small, one must be more stable; getting anxious will only lead to a faster demise. I met a friend last year who had an account with 1200U. When he first entered the market, he was extremely nervous every time he opened a position, fearing that one mistake would wipe him out.

Later, he took the advice and strictly followed the rules. After three months, the account broke 15,000 U, and after five months, it directly surged to 32,000 U, without a single liquidation during that period. Some say it was just good luck? Absolutely not; it was all about ironclad execution.

The following three principles helped him move from four digits to five digits:

**First, funds should be diversified, don't all in**

Divide the money into three parts: half for short-term trading, specifically focusing on mainstream coins like BTC and ETH, and take profits when there is a fluctuation of 3%-5%; thirty percent for swing trading, entering when opportunities arise and holding positions for 3 to 5 days, aiming for stability; the remaining twenty percent as reserve funds, which should not be touched regardless of how crazy the market gets, as this is your trump card.

I have seen too many people go all in with thousands of U, forgetting themselves when it rises and losing their minds when it falls. Those who can truly go far all understand the importance of leaving themselves an escape route.

**Second, only follow the trend, do not engage in consolidation**

The market has been mostly ranging, and frequent trading during this time is just giving money to the platform. Wait for clear signals; act decisively when there are signals. Withdraw half of the profit at 15%, securing profits is the hard truth.

The rhythm of a master is: if not taking action, then it is fine; when taking action, it must be with certainty. Watching him steadily make money, never chasing highs or selling lows, makes one understand what it means to be patient.

**Third, rules are above all, don't let emotions take control**

A single stop loss should not exceed 2% of the principal; exit once it reaches that point. If profits exceed 4%, first reduce the position by half, allowing the remaining profit to run on its own. Never add to a losing position; don't expect to recover by averaging down.

You don't need to judge the right direction every time, but you must adhere to the rules every time. Making money relies on the system, not on feelings.

In the end, having a small principal is not scary; what is scary is always thinking about making a big turnaround. Turning 1200U into 32,000U relies not on luck, but on rules, patience, and self-discipline.

In the past, a person would move forward in the dark, but now the streetlights are here. The light keeps shining, whether to walk or not is up to you.
