#数字资产市场动态 has been involved in digital asset trading for several years, and increasingly perceives a pattern: the principal size is not the decisive factor; psychological resilience is.
Those beginners who jump into the market with a few hundred or a few thousand dollars often have only one obsession in mind — a quick gamble, to multiply their gains and achieve a reversal of fortune. What’s the reality? Funds don’t double, but the account crashes.
At the beginning of the month, a girl working in design asked me for advice. She was very honest: "I saved my two years’ worth of salary as principal, 80,000 USDT. Last month, I lost so much on futures trading that I only have 13,000 left. I don’t understand technical analysis, so I want to ask — is there still hope?"
My answer is yes, but only if you strictly follow the plan.
**Phase One: Stop the Bleeding and Clear Positions**
I asked her to provide a screenshot of her account. The result was obvious — high leverage, confused direction, some positions still in reverse. My instructions were straightforward: "Close everything, no matter how much floating loss there is. Clearing positions is the first step in stopping the bleeding."
**Phase Two: Rebuild the Trading System**
The remaining 13,000 USDT was divided into 10 parts, each time only using one part to enter the market; when a single position’s loss reaches 5%, stop loss immediately; when floating profit exceeds 30%, close half to realize gains and transfer to wallet. She was a bit anxious: "How long will it take to get back to 80,000?" I told her: "What you need now isn’t speed, but to avoid continuing pointless losses."
**Phase Three: Focus on Core Assets**
I told her to focus only on $BTC and $SOL. At that time, $BTC was stabilizing around 86,500, with small bullish candles on the 4-hour chart, volume gradually increasing. I asked her to place a buy order at 86,638 with 10% of her position. She nervously asked: "Will it keep falling?" I replied: "We’re not betting on the rise or fall; we’re waiting for a more favorable probability moment."
Three days later, $BTC surged past 88,000, with floating gains close to 8,000 USDT. When closing the position, she sent me a voice message: "I feel like my thinking has become clearer."
That same week, $SOL built a strong support at 133. Its chart performance was more stable than the overall market. I replicated a similar position layout and set stop-loss. Yesterday, $SOL rose to 136, and she secured steady profits again.
Last night, she sent a screenshot — her 13,000 USDT account had grown to over 60,000 USDT. Achieving multiple times growth within a month. Trembling, she asked: "Am I finally out of the pit?"
I told her: "You’ve been out of the pit for a while. The moment you decided to stop blindly operating, you already completed the transformation."
**Core Insight**
The market doesn’t care about the size of your principal; it fears impulsiveness, unwillingness to admit mistakes, and lack of patience. Conversely, small funds actually hold an advantage — they allow repeated trial and error with small units, gradually integrating correct methods into habits.
For friends who want to steadily accumulate profits and carefully avoid traps, there’s no need to explore blindly alone in the crypto world. By controlling the rhythm, establishing a system, and using scientific logic to profit steadily, this path is achievable.
