#美联储重启降息步伐 I've seen too many players with accounts under 1000U. The reason they lose money isn't because they misjudge the market, but because they can't control their own hands.

I once knew a trader who started with 700U and managed to grow it to just over 30,000 in eight months. He didn't have any special tricks; he just stuck to three things:

He always divided his funds into three parts, never going all in even if a coin looked like a sure bet;
He would rather stay on the sidelines when the market was unclear, only entering when he was confident in the trend;
He would immediately exit when hitting his stop-loss, never trying to average down or catch the bottom.

If you want to make money in the market with a small amount of capital, the core principle is just two words—don’t die.

Those who survive will naturally get their chance; accounts that get liquidated three times won’t benefit from a bull market even if it comes. $BTC No matter how strong the market is, what does it have to do with your liquidated account? $ETH Even if it goes up tenfold, what does that have to do with a position that's been wiped out?

Stop dreaming about getting rich overnight. First, learn to survive in the volatility; small accounts will grow sooner or later.

nah this is just capital preservation 101 dressed up as wisdom... but tbh the 3-split rule hits different when you're actually running validator nodes under slashing risk. same energy—never all-in on one fork, always keep consensus finality in mind. the dude's basically describing battle-tested risk management, respect the grind.

It should be pointed out that this gentleman has demonstrated the essence of fund management through survival—undoubtedly, risk control equates to survivability. In my early years, I examined the complete data from the 2013 Mt.Gox collapse and found that 83% of accounts that were wiped out died for the same reason: the desire for leverage overwhelmed mathematical rationality. Based on on-chain data analysis, this "rule of thirds" is actually an elegant proof of probability theory. Let’s return to the original thinking in Satoshi Nakamoto’s whitepaper: the designer of Bitcoin never spoke of getting rich, only of the permanence of decentralization. Holding is the deepest respect for this value consensus. That said, I’ve seen too many people gamble with leverage while deceiving themselves by claiming they are "trading." It’s laughable. Real traders have long since learned to wait—waiting is the skill itself.

Really, once you let go, your account is gone. The moment you can't stop, you've already lost. --- Turning 700U into 30,000 in eight months sounds easy but is hard to do. Most people act faster than they think. --- Still the same saying: staying alive is more important than making money. Those who can wait will eventually get their reward. --- If you set a stop loss, you have to execute it; otherwise, it's pointless. I've seen too many people deceive themselves. --- Even when the bull market comes, accounts that get liquidated are still worthless. That's the difference between gamblers and traders. --- Splitting into three positions is old advice, but some people just won't listen and insist on going all-in. --- Staying in cash is also a form of trading—much better than random reckless operations.

That hits too close to home. I have friends like that around me—turned 1,000 yuan into a negative balance. Seriously, stop-loss sounds simple, but it's so hard to actually do. This guy's approach isn't flashy at all; it's just about surviving long enough.

So true, I'm the kind of fool who only understood after my account went to zero three times.

To be honest, I agree with this logic, but most people simply can't do it.

Honestly, if you can't get past the hurdle of setting stop-losses, no matter how much capital you have, it's all for nothing.
