Lele's account story begins with despair.

Three months ago, when he came to me, he only had 1,500 yuan left in his account. That feeling of being hopeless could be heard in his tone. He asked me: "Is there no chance to turn things around?"

I didn't give him any magical indicators or recommend any skyrocketing coins, I only shared three ironclad rules. Just these three, and he followed them exactly, without a single misstep, and his account climbed from 1,500 to 15,000. Not a get-rich-quick overnight thing, but a steady upward climb.

**Rule 1: Separate your funds.**

Divide the 1,500U into three parts. For short-term trades, chase small waves; for the big trend, wait for weekly confirmation before acting. Also, leave the last part as a safety net for survival.

**Rule 2: Never fully commit your position.**

Full position sounds tough, but it's actually gambling. If your judgment is wrong once, your account is wiped out with no chance to recover.

**Rule 3: Trade only within the trend.**

If you can't see clearly, stay out of the market. Wait until the trend emerges before making a move. It's better to skip uncertain market conditions than to force a trade.

How exactly does he operate?

His short-term trades are limited to a maximum of two orders per day. Cut losses at 4%, no re-adding. If he gains 8%, immediately move the stop-loss to break-even, and let the market decide the rest.

Long-term is even simpler—if the weekly chart shows no signs of strength, do nothing. Once volume breaks out and confirms, enter the market accordingly. When earning 20%, take out half of the profit, and use an 8% trailing stop-loss to protect the rest.

These three rules may sound dull and unflashy, but they share a core principle: keep you alive.

There are opportunities in the crypto world every day, but if your principal is gone, no matter how many opportunities there are, they don't matter to you. No matter how Bitcoin rises or Ethereum moves, if your account has no money, it's all empty talk.

Profitable traders in the crypto space are never the most aggressive ones, but those who can endure until the end and stay alive.

If you're currently at the bottom, don't try to turn things around in one shot. First, use these three rules to save yourself. Once you're alive, money will come naturally.
