I recently saw a beginner who turned 1,500 yuan into over 50,000 in three months, all without ever getting liquidated. Many people's first reaction would definitely be—this guy is incredibly lucky.

But honestly, luck isn't that big of a factor here. The core is a set of strategies that may look clumsy but are truly sustainable.

The first thing he did left a deep impression on me: he wasn't in a rush to find coins, wasn't leveraging, and wasn't chasing hot topics. Instead, he split his principal into three parts. One part for intraday short-term trading, only one trade per day; another for swing trading, patiently waiting without trying to predict the trend, and once he entered a position, he made sure there was enough room to maneuver; the last part he never touched, which gave him confidence in his mindset. Think about it—few people who bet their entire capital are likely to survive past the second year.

The second point is even more counterintuitive—learn to do nothing. 80% of the crypto market time is spent on volatility and oscillations. Rash operations just rack up fees. The real opportunities come when the trend has already been established. Once you make a profit, immediately take some off the table; this keeps your mindset stable. It may seem slow, but in reality, it’s a faster way to grow.

The most crucial third point? Keep emotions out of trading. Set a stop-loss and stick to it—no bargaining; lock in profits early to reduce risk—no greed; if you lose, don’t add to your position—no sulking. Once the rules are set, follow through responsibly. Let the rules make money, not gut feelings.

Small capital is never the bottleneck; the real danger is wanting to get rich quick. If you're stuck in the vicious cycle of "not selling after making a profit, holding on stubbornly after a loss," what you lack isn't market opportunities but a trading method that allows you to sleep peacefully.
