#数字资产市场动态 I don't have much money on hand. Can the crypto world still carve out a path?

Honestly, here it's not about luck, but about rules and discipline.

A friend started with 1200 USDT, and his mindset was really tense, hands trembling when placing orders. But what was the result? In 3 months, he reached 15,000 USDT, and in 5 months, he surged to 32,000 USDT. Throughout the process, he never got liquidated.

What's the key? These three ironclad rules:

**Divide your funds into three parts, each doing a different job**

500 USDT for day trading: Only watch BTC and ETH, take profits with 3%-5% swings, and execute quickly.

400 USDT for swing trading: Hold for 3-5 days, don't chase highs or bottom-fish, only ride the trend with the most meat in the middle.

300 USDT as a bottom buffer: During extreme market conditions, don't burn through it; keep it as capital for a turnaround.

What's the benefit of this allocation? Even if one direction fails, you still have a way out. Going all-in? That's gambling, and in the end, you'll have to pay it back.

**Wait for signals, not luck. Speak plainly, then sleep**

80% of the time in crypto is boring sideways movement. Frequent trading is just giving money to the exchange.

No signals? Turn off the device and sleep, don’t get itchy. See a signal? Follow it precisely. Profit reaches 15%? Take half off first, so the rest can aim for higher gains. Greedy people have already fallen halfway up the mountain.

**Stop-loss at 2%, take profit at 4%, then reduce positions—no sentimental attachment**

Cut when a single trade loses 2%, don’t think "it will rebound." Too many stories like that.

Profit exceeds 4%? Halve your position, lock in the profits, and only then use others’ money to gamble. If you’re losing, don’t add to the position—that’s not "averaging down," that’s jumping into the abyss.

In short, it’s not about always being right, but about always doing right. Use systems to control your hands, rely on discipline to make money. Only then can you go from being the one cut to the one harvesting.

Small capital? That’s no excuse to lose. The real reason for losing is that gambling instinct in your mind for a big turnaround. From 1200 USDT to 32,000 USDT, the winner is never the market, but rules, patience, and execution.
