With under 2,000 U, learn how not to get wiped out before talking about turning things around.
It may sound harsh, but it can save you a lot of money. I once guided a young woman who turned 1,500 U into 42,000 U in three months without getting wiped out or losing half her capital. It wasn’t luck—she followed three simple rules.
First, never go all in. Split 1,500 into three parts and make short-term swing trades to stay safe. Go all in once and a pullback can knock you out. Keep some in reserve if you want a chance to turn things around.
Second, only trade when the outlook is clear. Don’t get trigger-happy in a sideways market. Most losses come from trading when the direction is unclear. Better to stay out and miss a gain than trade recklessly and lose. Wait for the trend to become clear before entering. There won’t be a good opportunity every day, but your capital can burn every day.
Third, use rules to control your emotions. Set a stop-loss for every trade and cut your losses when it’s hit. When your profit reaches the target, take half off the table. Once you’ve made a certain amount, move the gains into profit. Never add to a losing position—you’ll only dig yourself deeper.
Only when your capital is protected should you think about doubling it. Split your positions, wait for opportunities, and control your pace. It’s not exciting, but it can save you years of detours. In crypto, slow is fast.
