Not reaching 1000U and already eager to make a big move? Slow down first. The crypto world has never been a casino, and small fund players need to pay more attention to strategy and rules.

I have seen a novice trader start with 800U, grow to 12,000U in a month, and within two more months, the account approached 500,000U, all without experiencing a margin call. This is not luck, but rather strict adherence to three unshakable disciplines.

**First: Funds must be diversified**

800U should not be put all in at once. Divide it into three parts—300U for short-term trading, focusing on mainstream coins, taking profits at 3%-5%; another 300U for swing trading, holding for a few days when risk opportunities arise; the remaining 200U as a safety net, staying put even in a hot market. Going all-in sounds exciting, but it’s actually a dead end. Keeping a backup plan allows you to go further.

**Second: Only act when the trend is clear**

The market is constantly fluctuating, and reckless trading during this time just prolongs exchange fees. Wait patiently for clear opportunities; once the direction is obvious, enter decisively. When profits reach 12%, take out half of the gains first, and let the rest run. This requires patience—don’t chase highs, don’t be greedy; there’s always another opportunity in the market.

**Third: Use rules to constrain yourself**

The maximum loss per trade should be 2% of the principal. Once reached, cut your losses immediately—no luck-based thinking. When profits reach 4%, reduce your position size by half to lock in gains. Most importantly, never add to a losing position—that’s the most dangerous impulse in human nature. Let rules replace emotions in decision-making; only then can stable profits be achieved.

Small funds should avoid the illusion of a big turnaround overnight. Those who can truly survive in this market rely on method, discipline, and patience—though these go against human nature, as long as you persist, the market will never punish traders who have a strong sense of rules.
