#大户持仓动态 **How to survive and make money with small capital, trading notes from 1500U to 30,000U**
Having little money is not scary; what is scary is that thirst for a chance to turn things around.
I helped a newbie with an account of 1500U, and he was nervous all day. I asked him what his goal was, and he replied that he wanted to double it. I didn't teach him any technical indicators, just shared three rules for survival. A month later, his account reached 10000U, and after another two months, it surged to 30000U. The entire process didn't blow up even once.
Some say this is luck? Don't be ridiculous, it's all about discipline behind it.
**First tip: Divide your money into three parts, always leave yourself a backup**
1500 is allocated as follows:
Monitor the market for 500 yuan daily — only focus on $BTC and $ETH, the two most liquid options, and take profits on 3%-5% fluctuations. Enter and exit quickly, and don’t be greedy.
Swing trading with 500 units - only enter when there is a real signal, hold positions for 3-5 days to seek stable returns, and do not chase hot trends.
Keep 500 in reserve at the bottom of the box - no matter how crazy the market gets, don't touch it; this is the ammunition depot for a comeback.
What about those who went all in? They were full of confidence when the market was rising, and when it fell, it was a complete mess. The core secret of top traders is just one: always hold a gun outside the market.
**Second Tip: Only follow confirmed trends, don't work for transaction fees**
The market is mostly a grind - sideways trading accounts for 80%, and real opportunities are few and far between. Frequent entries and exits? That's just giving money to the exchange for nothing.
Without a clear signal, just sleep. Once the signal comes, strike hard. When the profit reaches 12%? Immediately take half to secure profits, let the rest run.
During the time when I saw his account double, I observed him steadily earning profits, never once seeing him chase after highs or sell off during lows. The rhythm is like this: most of the time is spent waiting, and once he takes action, it's precise.
**Third Move: Rules are Ironclad, Emotions Cannot Decide Strategies**
Set a 2% stop-loss line for a single trade - get out when it hits, no mercy;
Take profit by cutting your position in half immediately after exceeding 4%—secure half of your profits and let the rest ride the big market.
Never average down when in loss—that is the expressway to liquidation.
You don't need to perfectly time the market every time, but you must adhere to the rules each time. The essence of making money is to use a system to lock down your impulsive trading hands.
From 1500U to 30,000U, there is no luck involved. Only three things are at work: rules, patience, and discipline. Having little money is not a disadvantage; greed is.

Really, the hardest part is executing the stop-loss. When I see a loss, I just want to hold on and wait to break even. If I can't get past this mental hurdle, everything else is pointless.

Discipline is indeed strict, but to be honest, most people forget after reading it, and only a rare few can truly implement it.

You're right, the key is not to be greedy, but the reality is that 99% of people fail at this point.

The stop loss line really is a lifesaver; I only understood it after I went all in and got rekt.

Dividing this move into three parts is indeed brilliant, but there are unfortunately very few people who can execute it.

It's really divided into three parts, which is amazing. It lives much longer than my fren who went all in before.
