#数字资产市场观察 Can small funds really turn around in the crypto market? The answer is yes, but the premise is that you need to have a method.
I have seen a friend who started with only 800U and in 5 months grew it to 19,000U. Now, his account is close to 30,000U. The key point is that during this time, he never faced a liquidation. It wasn't luck, but rather his effective capital management and strict adherence to trading discipline.
His playing style is actually not complicated, with three core points:
**First, split the principal into three parts to use** 300U is specifically for intraday trading, only dealing with mainstream coins like BTC and ETH, aiming for a fluctuation of 3-5 points before withdrawing. Additionally, 300U is kept for swing trading, only to be used during major events (such as interest rate decisions or policy implementations), holding positions for 3-5 days to capture trends. The remaining 400U should remain untouched as reserves; this amount is your confidence to stand firm in the market. Don't even think about going all in.
**Second, don't keep staring at the market and messing around aimlessly** The market fluctuates back and forth most of the time without clear signals, so it's better to wait. Only enter the market when the trend truly emerges, and when profits reach 15% of the principal, withdraw half of the profits first—this strategy can help stabilize your mindset significantly. A high trading frequency does not mean earning more; it is those who are patient that are the real winners.
**Third, once the rules are set, do not waver** Set the stop loss at 1.5%, and sell when it reaches that point, leaving no room for hesitation. If profits exceed 3%, reduce your position by half and let the remaining part continue to run. The most important thing is: never average down on losses; it is common to dig yourself deeper. You don’t need to always judge the right direction, but you must ensure that you follow the rules every time.
A small principal is not a problem; the problem is that many people always think about making a big turnaround, which ends up getting them into trouble. The market is always there; surviving is the only chance to continue playing.
I also started with a small amount of capital and have come a long way. Now I mainly work on BTC and ETH contracts and spot strategies. If you want to steadily grow from a small amount of capital, the key is to engrave discipline into your bones — you can learn the tricks of the market makers, but you must not compromise your bottom line.

It's easy to say that turning 800U into 30,000, but how many can actually stick to a stop loss of 1.5%?

Making 30,000 from 800U sounds easy... the key is whether one can really stick to a 1.5% stop loss, that's the difficult part.

nah the whole "1.5% stop loss" thing... technically sounds prudent but statistically? most retail still gets liquidated regardless. insufficient validation of actual execution discipline tbh

800U flipped to 30,000, the key is still to stay alive. What I fear the most are those who go all in, and when their mindset collapses, they drop to zero.

To be honest, this trap of split warehouse logic looks a bit familiar to me, I'm just afraid it's survivor bias talking.

From 800U to 30,000, it's really not about luck, it's discipline. I admire those who can resist the urge to mess around.

From 800 to 30,000, the key really is discipline, otherwise I would have been Get Liquidated long ago.
