Recently, a friend came to me with only 800 USDT left in hand, hoping to turn things around in the crypto world. I didn't recommend any specific coins to him; instead, I said three sentences. Ninety days later, his account grew from 800U to 80,000U, without a single liquidation in between. Today, I want to share this approach with you. How much you can understand depends on yourself.



**First Trick: Divide Funds, Learn Self-Discipline and Letting Go**

Split the money into three parts, each serving its purpose. With 800U, 400U per part is the baseline, and keep 200U as an emergency fund.

Quick Short-term Blade: 300U for intraday trading, at most two trades a day. Once done, stop—no greed. Trend Cannon: 300U dedicated to catching major upward waves. If the weekly chart isn’t showing a bullish setup, stay out and sleep in cash; this portion of money isn’t meant to be wasted. Lifesaver Fund: 200U is your life vest. When the market dips sharply and your position gets liquidated, top up immediately to ensure you're still sitting at the trading table.

Don’t even think about full-margin trading. Once liquidated, it’s game over—your head is gone, and if your brain drops out, that’s the end.

**Second Trick: Only Ride the Fattest Part of the Market, Shrink Into a Turtle Otherwise**

Choppy markets are like a meat grinder—nine out of ten times, they cut the leeks (stop losses). My signals are very simple and straightforward.

If the daily moving averages aren’t forming a bullish order? Stay out of the market. Break above previous highs with increased volume and confirm with daily close? That’s your first entry signal. Once the market gains 30%, immediately take half of the profit off the table for safety, and set a trailing stop at 10% to follow the remaining position.

Never try to catch every move. There’s always another train. Just learn to hitch a ride.

**Third Trick: Lock Emotions in an Iron Cage, Execute Mechanically**

Write your “life or death” plan before entering the market—follow it strictly, no discussion.

Cut losses automatically at 3%, trigger stop-loss without debate. When profits reach 10%, immediately move your stop to break-even; the remaining gains are market gifts—trust and take them. Shut down your computer at 11 PM sharp every night. No matter how beautiful the candlesticks look, don’t watch; sleep quality is more valuable than market charts. If you still want to monitor the market, uninstall the app.

Be so mechanical that you feel bored. Only then can you survive long

Wow, 800U to 80,000U? This data is outrageous... But I believe in the segmented funding approach. Going all-in is truly a suicidal strategy; I've seen too many people wipe out after a single all-in move.

This segmentation method sounds good, but I'm worried that during execution, I'll end up going all-in with the entire position again.

Damn, isn't this a living example of strictly enforcing discipline? Relying on luck from 800 to 80,000 is really not the point. I've known this position-splitting strategy for a long time, but the real question is, how many people can truly endure without moving... I have to admit that a 3% stop-loss is difficult for most people; when emotions come, everything is ruined. The concept of a life-saving treasury is brilliant. Many people end up losing everything because they don't have this lifeline. Looking at theory alone is useless; the key is whether you can watch the K-line in the middle of the night without getting nervous. I think the most ruthless move is to turn off the computer at 11 o'clock. Many night owls get wiped out because they can't stick to this line.

800 to 80,000 sounds pretty unbelievable, but the last sentence was spot on... surviving is what qualifies you to get rich --- I've been using segmented position holding for a long time, but executing it is just too painful haha --- The key is that I just can't stick to turning off the computer at 11 o'clock --- Cut at 3%? Sometimes it just crashes after a pullback, feels a bit aggressive --- It's "only eating the most profitable segment" again. Who can predict this phase of the market in advance --- Nut, how many times have you explained this routine? The problem is that knowing and doing are two different things --- There’s something there, but I just don’t believe anyone can mechanically execute the entire cycle --- I accept the logic of the life-saving vault, but the rest is still too idealistic --- 800 to 80,000… this must be the legendary "friend" --- Setting a stop loss at 3%—are you really brave enough? I feel like I would still hold through it at that time

It's the same theory again, but the key is whether you can really keep your hand from trembling.

This guy is basically saying: Don't think about going all-in at once; diversification is the key. Damn, it's that "cut at 3%" argument again. It's easy to say, but really hard to do. Only if you haven't been liquidated can you say you're lucky. This market can change at any moment; who can guarantee? Uninstall the mobile app? Ha, that's a terrible suggestion. I only lost so much because I was constantly watching the market. Sleeping with an empty position is indeed refreshing, but I can't resist opening new trades out of boredom. This kind of thinking is just for listening; they won't reveal the real secrets to making money. Going from 800 to 80,000, I’d really like to know which coins he chose. Mechanical execution sounds cold-blooded, but it's definitely smarter than relying on gut feelings.

800 to 80,000? That number sounds a bit crazy, but there's nothing wrong with segmented funding. All-in players have indeed been wiped out. Mechanical execution is brilliant; emotions are the biggest enemy of making money. I now just leave my phone in the drawer and go to sleep at 11 o'clock. Watching fewer candlesticks means losing less. I agree with a 3% stop-loss; many people greedily hold on to that 3%, only to lose 30% in the end.
