#比特币与黄金战争 Why do small funds always get liquidated when entering the market? These 3 fundamental rules helped me watch my students grow from 700U to 32,000U.



$BTC $ETH

To be blunt—newcomers in the crypto world lose the fastest because they have no rules.

What is the biggest taboo when your account is small? Greed. Going all-in on one trade, aiming to double your money or get wiped out—there's no middle ground.

I have a real case. Last year, a buddy started with 700U, his fingers trembling, afraid that one wrong move would wipe him out. I told him: "Play by the rules, and in three months, you'll see a change."

And what happened?
Three months—account grew to 18,000U
Five months—shot up to 32,000U
The entire process had zero liquidations.

This is not luck; it's an iron law.

**Step 1: Divide your funds into three parts, always leave yourself an exit**

700U isn't just one sum; it's three parts:
- 250U for intraday trading, focusing only on BTC and ETH fluctuations, exit after a 2%-4% gain, and save the rest for the next opportunity
- 220U for swing trading, wait for clear signals on the chart before entering, hold for 2-4 days, aiming for stability
- 230U as a reserve fund, never touch in extreme market conditions

Have you seen someone go all-in on a single trade? When it rises, they get overconfident; when it drops, they panic. Traders who survive always leave themselves a backup plan.

**Step 2: Only trade when there are signals, stay still otherwise**

The market spends 80% of the time grinding on traders. Don't trade during these times. When a signal appears, jump in immediately.

Take profits of 15% and withdraw half—really, cash out first. Let the rest run on its own.

When I watched him double his account, what stood out wasn't his quick order execution but his ability to "sit still." No chasing highs, no greed—just steady rhythm.

**Step 3: Rules are more important than feelings; emotions must be eliminated**

Set a 1% stop-loss and exit immediately—no hesitation.
When profits exceed 3%, cut your position in half and let the market handle the rest.
Never add to a losing position—that's the easiest way to get burned.

You don't have to perfectly buy the bottom every time, but you must follow the rules every time. Making money, frankly, is about using a system to bind your restless hands.

Remember: Small capital isn't scary; what's scary is thinking you can turn things around in one shot.

Starting from 700U to 32,000U, it's always about discipline, patience, and a reusable system.

I truly understand the importance of being able to sit still; it's really that simple.

That's right, small funds are the easiest to get reckless with—buying all in when prices rise and panicking when they fall. Turning 700U into 32,000 sounds great, but how many people can stick to this strategy...

Sounds reliable, but how many people can really stick to dividing into three parts... Most still just go all in when they get itchy.

To be honest, this allocation logic is really solid, but I'm afraid most people will just listen and forget. When it comes to actually trading, they still go all-in with full positions.

You're trying to harvest the little guys again. It sounds good, but most real cases are survivor bias.
