#数字资产市场动态 Beginner's Must-Read: Learn to Survive with 10 Dollars, Then Talk About Doubling Your Account

Many people enter the market wanting to make big money, only to see their accounts wiped out in a month. Actually, there's a smarter way to survive — start with the smallest units, use discipline to turn small money into big money.

**Starting Strategy: Try with 10U**

Divide into two parts: 5U as your trading capital, and the other 5U kept aside as your "life-saving fund." Use this 5U as margin to open a position with 100x leverage, which is about 0.3 ETH. Sounds conservative? But this is exactly why most people can't last beyond the second week — they lack the patience for it.

Set a stop-loss at 20%. Once the trend reverses, cut your losses and treat it as tuition; set a take-profit at 100%. When the trend is right, double up and take profits. If you get liquidated? Don't panic — you still have that 5U to keep fighting. This is the correct way for small funds to operate.

**The First Critical Point: Take Profits When Floating Gains Exceed 50%**

Don’t be greedy. When floating gains exceed 50%, your mindset is most vulnerable to collapse. Take the profits directly, then start the next trade. Do this three times, and your 10U can grow to 80U. It sounds slow, but compared to the all-in gamble, this is how to stay alive and make money.

**The Rhythm of Capital Growth**

10U to 20U (use the remaining 5U to try again) → 20U to 40U (roll over 10U) → 40U to 80U (continue cycling 20U). Doing this three times in a row relies not on luck, but on execution.

When you reach 80U, change your approach. Only move 10U each time, and spread out the rest. You can afford to make up to eight mistakes before the account is wiped out. This tolerance for errors allows you to go further. Reaching 200U in a month is entirely reasonable.

**After 200U, Speed Up, But Don't Lose Your Mind**

Divide into ten positions, each 20U. No matter the rise or fall, you can handle it. There’s buffer both ways, preventing a collapse from one or two losses. The focus now is on steady gains, not reckless rushing.

When your account hits around 1000U, upgrade each position to 50U. This stage tests your discipline — as the money grows, your mind tends to become restless. You’ve seen the volatility of coins like $XMR, $FHE, and others, and you know what a pullback looks like. The more you advance, the slower you should go, and the less you should be fully invested.

**Critical Point: The 1000U Watershed**

Before 1000U, it’s all about one word: Discipline. Use position sizing, set stop-losses and take-profits, and operate like a machine. No compromises, no gambling on luck — just discipline.

After 1000U, you can consider full position sizing, but even then, adjust your positions dynamically based on market volatility. This isn’t a reason to risk your life — it’s just that with a larger principal, you can withstand bigger swings.

The whole process generally takes 1 to 2 months to grow from 10U to 1000U, provided you truly practice discipline. Don’t mess around, don’t stubbornly hold through losses, admit mistakes. Those who stubbornly hold are ultimately counting down to liquidation.

**Small Funds Fear Most: Going All-In and Getting Liquidated**

Full position liquidation means the game is over. Don’t rush to go all-in. You can’t control the market rhythm, but you can develop patience. Wait when needed, cut losses when necessary — emotions are poison in trading.

The real advantage of small funds isn’t making quick money, but having enough time to iterate and execute with discipline. Doubling your account isn’t a dream — as long as you don’t mess up.
