I'm not a big trading influencer, nor have I ever thought about teaching courses to make money. I'm just someone who has stumbled many times in the crypto world.
Last year, a friend had only 1200U left and wanted to talk about the possibility of turning things around. I gave him three suggestions. He spent 90 days growing his account to over 50,000U, without a single liquidation during that time. Today, I share this set of strategies with you. How much you can learn depends on your own comprehension.
**First Rule: Funds must be divided, like giving yourself insurance**
Split 1200U into three parts, each 400U, operating independently. Use 400U for short-term trades, opening at most two orders per day before stopping. The other 400U is for trend trades, only acting once weekly confirmation is achieved. The last 400U is specifically for managing liquidation risk—if your position gets hit, immediately add to it so you stay in the game. Forget about full position trading; a severed finger can grow back, but a severed head is truly finished.
**Second Rule: Only ride the most profitable market segments, stay put otherwise**
Choppy markets are like a meat grinder; in nine out of ten market moves, you'll get cut. My trading logic is straightforward: if the daily moving averages haven't formed a bullish alignment, stay out and wait; when volume breaks through previous highs and the daily close confirms, get in for the first time; when profits reach 30% of your principal, take half off; use 10% of the remaining for trailing stop-loss.
Remember this—markets operate 24 hours a day. If you miss this ride, there's always another. No need to rush.
**Third Rule: Lock your emotions in a black box, only act on signals**
Before placing an order, write down your stop-loss and take-profit plan: if a 3% loss occurs, automatically cut; when a 10% profit is reached, move your stop-loss to break-even, so everything earned afterward is profit. Shut down your computer promptly at 11 PM every night, regardless of how beautiful the K-line looks. If your sleep quality suffers, just uninstall the app.
Boredom to the point of mechanical action is actually the secret to surviving the longest as a trader.
From 1200U to over 50,000U, it’s not about some divine trade signals, but about making fewer mistakes. The market is always there, but your principal doesn’t often come back. Memorize these three rules first, then study wave patterns, K-line indicators, and other tools. Survive first, then talk about making money. If you can't survive, you're just paying fees in someone else's account.

Whoa, from 1200 to 50,000, zero liquidation in 90 days? That number is a bit outrageous, but splitting funds is indeed a solid approach.
---
The phrase "oscillating market meat grinder" hits home; I've been cut many times before. Now, whenever I see volatility, I just want to run.
---
The key is self-discipline. I failed because I was still watching the charts at 11 PM every night. No sleep, no money.
---
It feels a bit like armchair strategist after the fact, but these three rules are truly the foundation for survival.
---
That last comment about fees being harsh really reveals the truth of the crypto world.
---
I've learned to split funds into three parts; it feels more practical than any technical indicator.
---
Not bad writing, but the numbers from 1200 to 50,000 still seem like they could be a bit more conservative.
---
Setting a 3% stop-loss to automatically cut, sounds simple, but the psychological barrier when actually executing is the hardest part.
---
Wait, can you still have 50,000 USDT by closing the computer at 11 PM every night? Aren't the market movements mostly at night?
---
Waiting in cash is the biggest test of human nature; there's always this anxiety of missing out.

This guy is right, the key is not to be greedy. I used to go all-in with my entire position, but after one spike, I was back to square one. Now I use the split funds method, and indeed, I’ve lasted longer.
---
Honestly, discipline is more valuable than any indicator; but too many people just don’t listen.
---
Over 50,000 US dollars sounds like a lot, but the most important thing is that I haven't blown my account yet—that's real profit.
---
I always feel like this logic can be summed up in one sentence—don’t be stupid.
---
The key question is, can anyone really stick to turning off their computer at 11? I definitely can’t, haha.
---
Splitting funds is brilliant; it’s like giving yourself multiple lives, more reliable than any hedge.
---
Is the 40+ times return in 90 days true, or is it just an example?

That's right, I've really seen too many people go all-in and end up losing everything. Dividing funds is indeed the foundation for survival; without it, you're just gambling.

To be honest, I suffered losses early on in fund splitting, but his logic still makes sense.
