The principal below 1000U, take a break first, there are a few truths you need to know:
The crypto world is not about gambling your guts, it's about rules. I mentored a newcomer, starting with 800U, reaching 18kU in a month, now close to 30k, and never blew up the account. It's not luck, but three strict rules that kept the account safe.
First rule: Funds must be divided into three parts;
Don't go all-in. 300U for day trading, only focus on mainstream coins, make 3% from small fluctuations and then exit; 300U for swing trading, wait for major trends (ETFs, macro events), hold for 3-5 days; the remaining 400U as a safety net, do not trade in any market condition. Preserve the principal to have the next opportunity.
Second rule: Only follow major trends, avoid sideways markets;
90% of market movements are just time-consuming. If there's no trend, stay out of the market, scrolling your phone is better than random trading. Wait for a clear direction before entering, take profit at 15%, and lock in gains. Real profit is only when the money is in your pocket.
Third rule: Rules override emotions;
Stop-loss at 1.5% must be executed, no fantasies; take profit at 3% and reduce position, lock in profits; never add to a losing position. Admit mistakes, don't try to fix with emotions. Ultimately, small capital's turnaround depends not on getting rich overnight, but on "not dying." Those who survive are qualified to wait for big market moves. Whether 800U can turn into 30kU doesn't depend on whether you dare to gamble, but on whether you can control yourself. $BTC
