Today I’m not shouting buy orders—I’m reminding friends with less than 800U capital: if you want to turn things around in crypto, stop and look at these 3 life-saving and money-making rules first. They work better than blindly rushing in.

Last year, I guided a beginner with 500U. From not being able to tell order types apart to earning up to 28,000U in three months—zero liquidation the whole time. It wasn’t luck. It was strict discipline.

1. Split your principal into three parts—keep an exit

For 500–800U, divide it proportionally into three portions:

30%–40% for day trading: only watch BTC and ETH. Take profit when the price moves 3%–5%. Do 1–2 trades per day and stop. Don’t touch altcoins.

30%–40% for swing trading: wait for a 4-hour candlestick breakout of the range, with volume increasing before entering. Hold for 3–5 days, targeting 15%–20% profit.

20%–30% as the “life-saving fund”: you don’t move even in extreme market conditions. Without it, you won’t have a chance to turn things around.

2. Follow trends only—don’t waste time in chop

In crypto, 80% of the time the market is sideways. Frequent trading is basically burning fees.

No signal? Then wait. Take half the profit at 12%. With small capital, stability matters more than greed.

3. Rules come first—control your hands

For every trade, set a stop-loss no more than 3% of your principal; exit on time without hesitation.

If profit exceeds 5%, cut the position in half. For the remainder, set a stop-loss at the entry (cost) price.

Never add to a losing position. Don’t let emotions lead you astray.

The advantage of small capital is flexibility—but what you fear is the “one-shot comeback” gambling mindset. Protect your principal with rules, accumulate profits, and rolling 800U to 20,000U isn’t hard. The key is discipline and patience.

Before, I used to stumble around alone in the dark. Now the light is in my hands.

The light is always on—will you follow it? @加密朵儿
