#密码资产动态追踪 Many people spend a year or two in the crypto world, only to see their accounts shrink— the core issue isn't luck, but that they never got the right approach from the start.



I've seen someone start with $1,200, and in three months, grow it to $36,000 without ever getting liquidated. His method may seem counterintuitive, but this is the common secret among traders who last long and succeed.

**First Threshold: Position Sizing Strategy, the Foundation for Survival**

Divide your funds into three parts, each $400, doing completely different things. One part is for day trading, with a short-term perspective—focus on one opportunity per day, exit once the target is reached, and avoid greedily aiming for more points. The second part is for swing trading, with a longer cycle of ten days to half a month, waiting for a clear trend to form before taking action, capturing the core swing gains. The third part is the core holding, unaffected by market fluctuations—used as emergency insurance.

It's common to see the opposite—going all-in at the start, then getting liquidated during a sudden market drop. If you can't even survive, how can you talk about profit? The logic in crypto is brutal: survive first, then the next opportunity may come.

**Second Threshold: Timing is Key to Making Money, Don't Waste in Volatility**

Most of the time, the market just consolidates, with 80% of trading days showing no clear trend. Frequent trading during this period only results in losing fees and slippage on each trade. True profit opportunities are rare. Wait until a clear upward or downward trend appears, then act decisively—that's the correct rhythm.

Once you catch the trend, don't be greedy. Take out 30% of profits once they exceed 20%, to secure gains and leave room for further growth. This isn't greed—it's about knowing when to take profits. Experienced traders don't trade every day; they wait—either observing or, once they act, they aim to capture the entire trend's gains.

**Third Threshold: Use Rules to Control Emotions, Don't Let Feelings Drive Your Trades**

Emotional control is the most fragile part of trading. Before each trade, write down three ironclad rules: set a stop-loss at 2%, exit unconditionally when the trigger point is hit—no hesitation; take half of your position once profits reach 4%, to lock in gains while maintaining the chance to earn more; never add to a position, as doing so increases the risk of getting trapped, potentially leading to deep losses.

Controlling your emotions naturally results in positive market feedback—funds grow steadily according to your rules, not fluctuating wildly with your mood.

Opportunities in crypto are never scarce. What's missing? It's the ability to survive until those opportunities arrive. Are you willing to set such rules for yourself?

The concept of position splitting does make some sense, but brother, 1200U turning into 36,000 in three months... That number sounds a bit unbelievable. What kind of market conditions would it take to soar like that?

The explanation about position splitting is quite accurate, but there aren't many people who can actually execute it properly; most still can't get past the mindset hurdle.

Sub-accounts have indeed saved me; otherwise, I would have been in jail long ago, haha.

To be honest, I've heard of this concept of position splitting a long time ago, but only a few actually implement it. Most people are still accustomed to greed.

ngl the 1200U to 36K story hits different when you've been liquidated before... position sizing really IS everything, not trying to be that guy but 2022 taught me this the hard way

Oh, you're right... I'm just worried that even if I know, I won't be able to follow through. It feels like these three iron laws need to be read over and over again.

1200U three months to reach 36K, this number is indeed tempting, but I feel the guy in the story is truly one in a million. I've tried the position splitting strategy, but the execution is just too difficult, and it's really easy to get itchy during volatility. --- There's nothing wrong with what you said, but the problem is that 99% of people simply can't stick to "not adding to their position," and I am the opposite example. --- It's correct to read, but I guess less than one in ten who follow through will survive. It seems that the hardest part in the crypto world is never the methodology, but the sense of loneliness. --- The key is still mindset. Even the best strategy must be held back when the market plunges; this is much more difficult than making money itself. --- I get the logic of position splitting; every time a big market wave comes, you want to go all-in to chase it, but... anyway, it's just paying tuition. --- The bottom position setup is quite interesting, essentially leaving yourself a backup, so you won't be completely out with a full gamble. --- It looks simple, but in practice, it's a different story. Most people are not lacking in the theory, but fail in execution halfway through.
