Don't say there's no opportunity for small capital anymore. I started with 900U, and now my account is stable at five figures. This is not luck, but rather understanding a harsh reality: with limited funds, you have to use discipline to create room for survival.

**Diversification is the first line of defense**

My setup is simple: 50% for short-term trading, only dealing with mainstream assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, taking profits at 3% and then exiting regardless of how the market moves afterward; 30% for swing trading, entering only when the daily chart clearly breaks out with increased volume, usually closing within 5 days; the remaining 20% stays idle, unaffected even in extreme market conditions.

Look at those who go all-in with a single position—just one spike can wipe them out. Those who diversify can withstand several pullbacks and still survive. That’s the difference.

**Only participate in worthwhile markets**

Honestly, most of the time the market is just noise and volatility. Truly profitable opportunities are rare. I only take action in two situations: when the 15-minute K-line shows continuous upward movement and the daily MACD shows a golden cross—that’s a confirmed breakout. During sideways markets, even if I feel itchy, I stay in cash and wait, because trying to be smart at that time only leads to losses.

Once I reach a 10% profit, I withdraw 150% of that amount to lock in gains, protecting both the principal and part of the profits. The remaining positions are set with trailing stops to let profits run while safeguarding against significant reversals.

**Stop-loss is essential for survival**

This is the most critical point: if a single trade loses 1.5%, I must cut it. This is not a suggestion; it’s a command to stay alive. Many people get wiped out because they "hold on," but never adding to losing positions is my strictest rule—adding to losing trades is like digging your own grave.

When I make a 5% profit, I first cut half of the position, and set a 3% trailing stop on the remaining. This way, I participate in further upside while controlling risk.

**The core logic for small capital is actually very simple**

The process of growing from 900U to 50,000U is not about overnight riches. It’s about capturing 2 to 3 promising opportunities each month, step by step. When the account profits exceed 30%, I withdraw 20% to lock in gains, so even if the market turns later, I’ve already made money.

Consistent review and reflection are key—never make the same mistake twice. It may seem boring, but this boring discipline is what builds the profits.

The market never rewards effort alone; it rewards discipline. When you stop obsessing over whether it will go up or down tomorrow and focus instead on how much you can eat in this wave, your account will start giving you positive feedback.

In short, just stay alive and gradually get richer.
