Many people have been in the crypto space for years and still lose money. In fact, the root cause is not poor market conditions but the lack of a scientific trading system. Let's analyze a typical case: someone used a principal of 2000U and achieved 46,000U within three months, without ever getting liquidated. His method isn't complicated; it boils down to three key points.



**Point 1: Diversified Positioning Is the Premise for Survival**

This trader split 2000U into four parts, each 500U, to carry different trading objectives. One part is for intraday trading, focusing on single opportunities, exiting immediately upon reaching the target, never aiming for next-day moves. Another part is for swing trading, only acting once every ten days or half a month, specifically capturing large trend swings. The third part is a core holding, frozen regardless of market ups and downs, serving as an insurance for the entire capital chain.

Compare this with full-position traders: a 20% drop can force liquidation, leaving no chance for profit. The advantage of diversification is that even if one trade fails, the remaining funds can still operate. In the crypto world, staying alive is always the most important, because only then can there be opportunities for doubling.

**Point 2: Not Every Price Fluctuation Is Worth Trading**

80% of the market time is sideways consolidation, during which high-frequency trading only consumes transaction fees and mental energy. The truly professional approach is to wait for clear trend signals before acting. Once you do, fully capitalize on the entire trend’s gains.

Another key detail: take profits promptly. When a single trade yields over 20%, take away 30% of the profit first. This protects the principal and prevents greed from wiping out gains. Professional traders rarely place orders every day; they spend more time waiting and observing.

**Point 3: Use Rules to Suppress Emotions and Achieve Steady Compound Growth**

People who lose money in trading usually don’t lose due to market judgment but due to emotional management. In this case, three strict rules are set: stop-loss fixed at 2%, exit immediately without bargaining; when profits reach 4%, reduce part of the position to lock in gains; absolutely forbid adding to losing positions, as it only increases losses.

These rules sound simple, but executing them requires fighting human nature. When the account is deeply in the red, the urge to add positions to turn it around; when close to profit, the temptation to wait for more gains—these are emotional decisions. A trading account constrained by rules can achieve more stable positive returns.

The crypto space is not short of opportunities to double your money; what’s missing is disciplined people who live long enough to seize those opportunities. Growing from 2000U to 46,000U is essentially the result of compound growth through diversification, timing, and discipline.

It sounds good, but I've seen too many self-proclaimed users of this system still get liquidated... The key is really to know when to stop.

That's quite right, but too many people know this theory, and only a few can actually execute it... The key is human nature; if you don't add to your position, you might really be driven crazy.

That's quite true, but actually implementing this method is still difficult... I tend to be emotional myself, and when I lose, I want to add more to recover quickly.

You're not wrong; the key is still to stay alive. I've seen too many friends go all-in with full positions and lose everything in one wave, with no chance to turn things around. The strategy of dividing into smaller positions is indeed a hard rule; no matter how talented a trader is, they must respect this.

honestly the position sizing part is the only thing here that actually matters... rest of it is just cope for people who can't stick to a plan. seen this exact playbook fail spectacularly when volatility spikes because the math doesn't account for black swan events. but yeah, staying alive beats being right, that's the only real rule

To be honest, I've known about the logic of position splitting for a long time, but executing it is really frustrating. I'm the kind of idiot who, once my account is trapped, just wants to go all-in to turn things around.

Wow, this is what my big brother said: "Being alive is the real winner." I used to go all-in, and a 20% drop would wipe me out, my mentality collapsed. Now I understand, you have to diversify risk like harvesting wool, don't put all your eggs in one basket, wdnmd.

To be honest, hearing 2,000 to 46,000 sounds impressive, but I've seen too many case studies like this, and few have actually been successfully replicated. While splitting positions is correct, the key still lies in having a stop-loss discipline, which most people simply cannot do.
