Many people entering the crypto market struggle with one question: how to achieve stable growth with limited capital? Instead of blindly following the trend, it's better to learn how those who truly survive in the market operate.



A real case worth referencing. A trader started with 1200U, and over four months, rolled it up to 25,000U. Currently, the account has stabilized above 38,000U. The most important thing is that throughout the process, the account never experienced a margin call. This is not a story of luck; there is a complete logical system behind it.

**Step 1: Divide your bullets into three batches**

1200U is not invested all at once but split into three parts, each 400U. Why divide it this way?

One part is for intraday trading. Look for one or two opportunities each day, take profits when targets are hit, and never greedily try to squeeze more. The crypto market operates 24/7, and opportunities are always available; what’s lacking is the discipline to stop.

One part is for medium-term swing trading. After identifying a trend, make a move every ten days or half a month, aiming for large profits rather than frequent daily trades. This tests patience, and short-term noise should be learned to ignore.

One part is for insurance funds. This is the last line of defense and is generally not touched. Most margin call stories happen because of all-in bets; staying alive is more important than anything.

The key position discipline is: no single coin should occupy more than 20% of the total funds. Even if you make a mistake, it won’t cause major damage.

**Step 2: Only take obvious profits, avoid biting into unclear bones**

80% of the crypto market time is sideways consolidation. During this period, reckless trading is just giving away fees to exchanges. The real strategy is: when the market is unclear, lie flat; wait for a clear trend to emerge before acting.

Profit-taking should also follow principles. A practical habit is: whenever profits exceed 20% of the principal, withdraw 30% of the gains. This ensures the safety of the principal while allowing profits to continue circulating in the market. True experts don’t trade every day; they wait for opportunities with high certainty.

The core of this logic boils down to six words: survive, then make money. Many people lose because they are too impatient.

Honestly, I've been using this batch-by-batch approach for a long time, and the key is really to hold back from acting too often. --- From 1200 to 38,000, tripling in four months without liquidation? That takes a really strong mindset, I respect that. --- The trend of lying flat really hit me; my frequent daily trades result in losses that are just ridiculous. --- The insurance fund has saved me several times, and now I truly understand why living is more important than making money. --- Wait, are you saying that as soon as you get a 20% return, you start withdrawing? I've been greedy and wanted to maximize the entire cycle, no wonder I often get caught in a trap.

Basically, it's about holding steady and waiting for the wind to come. My account is just too itchy; I watch the market every day, and as a result, I end up paying a bunch in fees.

Basically, greed harms people. $1,200 can multiply 32 times, but the key is that I haven't gone all-in before. That's the winning mindset.

To be honest, I agree with this logic, but its execution must be backed by strict discipline...
