After trading for over two years, I’ve discovered a harsh truth: people with less money are actually the most likely to blow themselves up.

Coming in with a few hundred or a few thousand USDT, all that’s on their mind is three words—All! In! Double!

Last month, I got a request for help. A girl working in design had saved up 80,000 USDT over two years, and now her account was down to just 13,000.

She asked me, “Is there still hope?”

I said yes, but only if you follow my advice.

**First thing: Don’t think about making money, think about surviving.**

I looked at her position screenshots—every trade was high leverage chaos. I told her directly, “Close everything.”

She hesitated, “Isn’t that selling at a loss?”

I said, “You’re bleeding right now—if you don’t stop it, what are you even thinking about?”

**Second thing: Set boundaries for yourself.**

I helped her set three hard rules:

- Split your principal into 10 parts, only use 1 part max per trade
- Lose 5% on a trade? Cut it immediately
- Up 30%? Withdraw half the profit

She thought it was too slow. I told her, “What you need right now isn’t speed, it’s to stop losing.”

**Third thing: Focus on just two assets.**

BTC and SOL, don’t look at anything else.

After BTC stabilized at 86,500, I told her to go long at 86,638 with 10% of her account. She kept asking if it would drop.

I said, “We’re not gambling on direction, just taking high-probability trades.”

Three days later, it pumped to 88,000, netting her 8,000 USDT on that trade.

SOL stabilized at 133, and she caught another wave. Her account went from 13,000 to 60,000 USDT.

She was so excited she cried, “Am I finally turning things around?”

I said, “The day you stopped reckless trading, you were already back on track.”

**The market doesn’t care if your principal is small, it cares if you’re impatient, reckless, or can’t admit mistakes.**

Small funds are actually an advantage—you can take small losses, adjust quickly, and don’t have heavy baggage.

People who turn things around don’t rely on luck—they know when to stay steady.

If you’re getting more chaotic and panicked as you lose—stop and learn to be steady first.
