The key to turning losses into wins is not luck, but execution. A seasoned trader used the 1800U three-part method to reinvent himself, eventually growing his account to 37,000U. The underlying logic is worth learning for all traders.



The core of the three-part fund allocation is risk isolation. Divide 1800U into three independent accounts or positions of 600U each, and never mix them. The first part is dedicated to short-term trading, with a maximum of two trades per day. Stop immediately after a loss to avoid consecutive losses. The second part focuses on monitoring Bitcoin and Ethereum weekly charts—if there is no bullish alignment, stay in cash. Only when trading volume breaks previous highs and a close confirms the breakout do you open a small position to test the waters. The third part acts as an emergency fund; once a stop-loss is triggered, use it to add to your position, preventing being completely kicked out of the market.

Regarding full-position all-in trading, anyone who has been in the market for 8 years knows how dangerous it is. I’ve seen people go all-in on Bitcoin and get liquidated with just a 10% dip. I’ve also seen traders leverage 20x on futures, getting liquidated after a small fluctuation. Liquidation is like amputation—once the principal is gone, there’s no chance to turn things around.

There is only one standard for entering the market: if the daily chart does not show a bullish alignment, stay in cash and wait. Only when trading volume breaks previous highs and a close confirms the breakout do you dare to open a small initial position. Before entering, write down a "life-and-death promise"—a 5% stop-loss must be cut, and a 10% profit target should immediately move the stop-loss to the breakeven point. When profits reach 30% of the principal, take profits—withdraw half in cash, and set a 10% trailing stop on the remaining position.

Those who can survive in the crypto world until the end are not sprinters, but people who understand how to gradually grow their capital. Opportunities are everywhere every day; controlling emotions, following rules, and making fewer mistakes—this is the real secret to profitability. Survive first, then make money.
