Sisters who have encountered principal not exceeding 500U ask: how do you trade crypto??
“Don’t rush to place an order. Listen to what happened to Xiao Lin first.”
When Xiao Lin added me, her account only had 480U left. Every time she clicked the place order button, she was afraid that if the money was gone, even her rent would be in jeopardy.
I told her: “With a small principal you need to be even steadier. Follow the rules, and slowly you can build up.”
The first rule is to split the money and keep a backup plan.
Split 480U into three parts:
180U for day trading—focus only on BTC and ETH. If the price moves by 3%, exit immediately. Don’t get greedy.
150U for swing trading—wait for clear signals on the weekly chart before moving. Hold positions no longer than 5 days.
The remaining 150U lock straight into a cold wallet, set a complicated password, and say, “Even if I’m anxious, I won’t touch this money.”
I’ve seen too many people go all-in with several thousand U. When it rises they get overconfident, and when it falls they panic—they never go far. Keeping a bottom card is what gives you confidence.
The second rule is to chase trends only, and never waste energy on random chop.
Most of the time the market just grinds sideways. When Xiao Lin has no signals, she waits in the group chat for analysis and doesn’t do random trades.
When a daily chart issues a golden cross signal, she enters decisively. Once profit hits 10%, she withdraws half to her bank card first.
She sends me screenshots: “Sis, only what you take off the table is really yours. The extra gains are just surprises.” It’s not like some people who always think, “If it goes up a bit more…” and in the end end up with nothing but an empty basket.
The third rule is to stick to the rules and never trade based on emotions.
We agreed: per-trade stop loss must never exceed 1%. Cut at the time—no matter if it rises later, don’t regret it.
If profit exceeds 2%, reduce the position by half first. For the rest, set a trailing stop. If it loses, don’t add more. Even if you feel unwilling, you still hold back.
Once, ETH dropped. She watched the account turn green—down 2%. She clenched her teeth and didn’t average down. Later it kept falling. She said, “Good thing I didn’t follow my emotions.”
After 3 months, Xiao Lin’s account surged to 28,000U. After 8 months, the number broke 59,000U—no liquidation ever.
Now she laughs and says: “Sis, I used to think small principal meant I had no confidence. Now I finally understand—rules are the confidence.”
Actually, is it really “not possible with a small principal” in crypto? What you’re afraid of is rushing to flip the situation and losing your footing.
If you’re also holding a few thousand U with no direction, why not set up these three rules first?
— I already lit the “lamp” early. Now it’s up to you whether you’re willing to follow it steadily and keep going. After all, the money you make slowly is the kind you can truly keep.
