I only have 1000U in hand, so I don’t recommend getting too excited. Because in this market, the easiest thing to be fooled by isn’t the trend—it’s your own imagination.
When I first entered the market, I thought: “I’ll just use 1000U to practice.”
When I suddenly saw the coin pump up, I immediately changed my mind: “If I don’t get on this one, there won’t be another chance later.” So I poured all 1000U in. When it went up a bit, I started adding; when it dipped, I started holding on; and as it kept falling, I kept thinking, “I’ve already lost so much—wait a little longer.”
In the end, it wasn’t the market that took the money away. It was me, step by step, blocking off my own retreat.
So with small capital, I prefer a rather “dumb” method: split the 1000U and use it.
Whether it’s into ten parts or more doesn’t matter. The key isn’t the number—it’s to make sure one decision doesn’t consume all your chips. Take out a small portion to test your judgment. If your direction is wrong, stop. If the direction plays out, then consider the next step. The rest of the money should be kept calmly aside—don’t assume that leaving it idle is a waste. This is actually quite against human nature.
Because you’ll see other people double their money in one night, while your account hardly moves. But I’d rather have my account move slowly than experience that kind of “this trade must win” state. Once you start thinking a particular trade must win, the position size you hold is usually already beyond what you can realistically bear.
As for leverage, don’t spend every day staring at that X to study it. Same multiplier, different position sizes—your actual ability to withstand volatility is completely different. What you really need to calculate is this: if this trade is wrong, how much am I willing to pay?
The biggest advantage of 1000U isn’t that the money is abundant. It’s that you still have the chance to make many small mistakes. Don’t waste all of those chances on the very first attempt. @星哥带单 $CATI
