In the crypto market, going from 3,000 U to 30,000 U isn’t really any kind of myth. The core is just one thing: make fewer mistakes, and first keep your account alive.

Not long ago, a follower found me. At the time, their account only had 3,000 U left. After consecutive losses, their rhythm was completely thrown off—they were thinking every day about trying to turn it around with the next trade.

I didn’t tell him any complicated system. I only told him to split his funds into three parts first, because with small capital, the most dangerous stage is often when you’re急着做大—trying to make things bigger too fast. In the end, one bad trade can wipe you out.

First, use 1,000 U for short-term trading: at most two trades per day. If your stop-loss is triggered, you must exit immediately. Don’t hold through losses, and don’t add on repeatedly in a row. Most importantly, break the habit of making frequent trades.

Second, use another 1,000 U to wait only for the trend. If the daily or weekly direction isn’t clearly defined, keep it idle. Only after the structure is confirmed do you act. Better to miss a move than to keep burning capital back and forth in a choppy range.

Finally, keep the last 1,000 U untouched at all times, as a safety cushion for the account. When you make consecutive mistakes or run into a drawdown, you at least have the confidence and room to readjust.

At the time, I only said one line to him: you can slowly make money. But once your account gets liquidated out of the game, no matter how good the market later is, it has nothing to do with you.

The rules afterward are also simple: don’t trade when the trend isn’t clear; only enter after a breakout with confirmed volume. Before every trade, write down in advance the maximum you can afford to lose, and at what profit level you begin reducing your position.

For example, if losses reach the planned point, exit directly. If profits reach the target, take some off first, then move the protection level up. Let the rest ride on the market itself.

After he repeated this routine, the number of trades gradually decreased. And surprisingly, his account went from 3,000 U to 30,000 U step by step.

The crypto market never lacks opportunities. What’s truly scarce is the willingness to wait, the ability to hold your position, and the courage to stop when you’ve made a mistake.

One trade’s profit doesn’t open up a long-term gap. Who can make fewer mistakes, and who can keep staying in the market—waiting for the real move that belongs to them.
