When I first entered the crypto space, I only had 200U in my pocket. I had high hopes: if I could multiply this little bit by dozens of times, wouldn’t I turn things around? But in the first week, I got liquidated three times, and my account was down to 80U.#美光市值超越Meta跻身全美前十


Later I realized: I hadn’t even learned how to survive, so how could I talk about making money.
First, use small money to practice, don’t think about turning things around.
80U, I split it into four parts, only using 20U each time. If 20U is lost, there’s still the next portion, so I won’t wipe out everything at once. The position is so small that even a liquidation doesn’t hurt; when wrong, cut it off, don’t fantasize about a rebound. When right, don’t be greedy, take a little profit first. Practice the feeling of “exiting a trade alive.”#法国VS挪威
Second, if you get liquidated, so be it—don’t rush to get revenge.
Liquidations on small capital are normal. Treat it as tuition, but don’t think “I’ll win it back on the next trade.” The more anxious you are, the easier it is to get liquidated consecutively—I’ve learned that lesson the hard way.
Third, rhythm is more important than profit.
Going from 80U to 200U wasn’t about hitting one big win, but slowly pushing forward trade by trade. Only trade setups you understand; don’t chase or hold onto losing positions; take profits when earned. Gradually you’ll find that the account grows not by luck, but by having a method.
Fourth, when you have more money, you need to be even more careful.
When the account reaches a few hundred U, it’s easy to get cocky. You think with a bigger principal you can go all in on a big one, but actually the opposite is true: the more money you have, the more you need to diversify your position. Only risk a small part on each trade, so if wrong, it doesn’t hurt your foundation.
Fifth, in the end, it comes down to execution.
At this stage, the key is no longer whether you dare to take a trade. It’s about whether you hesitate when you should cut losses, whether you get greedy when you should take profits, whether you get itchy hands when you should stay out. The market doesn’t reward impulsiveness; it only rewards those who follow the rules.
One final truth: whether it’s small capital or large capital, it’s the same at its core. You’re not betting on the market; you’re training yourself not to be eliminated by the market. Only those who can survive have the right to talk about turning things around.

The last sentence punctures the illusion—many people think what they’re missing is capital, but in reality what they’re missing is the discipline to not get “washed out.” Following the rules is a hundred times harder than betting on the market’s direction.

Went liquidated three times, and only 80U was left—so real. I started with 500U and turned it into 50U within three days; I almost quit crypto. Splitting positions really saved me—I’m still using it now.

Seeing the climb from 80U back to 200U gave me goosebumps. It's not about how much I earned, but finally not messing around with reckless trades. #FrancevsNorway
