Not long ago, a fan approached me, his tone filled with urgency, and asked right away: 'I only have 2800 U left, can I turn it into 30,000 U in three months?'

When faced with such questions, I never nod or shake my head directly; instead, I throw back a question: 'Do you want to use this money to steadily turn around, or are you gambling for one last shot?'

There was silence on the other end of the line for a few seconds, and finally, a few heavy words came: 'I just want to survive in the crypto world.'

Only then did I relent: 'Okay, but you must adhere to two bottom lines — don't touch emotional trades, and don't bet with your principal.'

There are no shortcuts in training students; the first step must be to build a foundation. I set three iron rules for him: only make small segment profits, don't be greedy for big trends;

Operate a maximum of 3 trades daily to avoid frequent trading errors; single position ≤ 15%, locking in risk.

I also emphasized to him: 'In contracts, staying alive is always more important than making quick money; you need to engrave the word ‘stability’ into your DNA.'

In the first week, he strictly followed the rules and earned 800 U, raising his account balance to 3600 U;

In the second week, his account directly broke 5000 U. But by the third week, he started getting anxious, saying he wanted to increase his position and go for a surge.

I immediately told him to stop trading for two days and write 600 words of psychological review each day — not discussing technical indicators, but writing about the impulses during trading, thoughts of violating rules, and how he managed to restrain himself.

Having trained too many students, I know better than anyone: those who can really flip capital with small funds do not rely on waiting for so-called 'big trends', but on the restraint to decisively exit each time they reach their target.

A month later, his account steadily reached 16,000 U, at which point I finally taught him the 'two-phase medium-term layout + emotional turning point strategy' that I had kept in reserve.

It's not that I'm hiding anything, but most people can't even stick to basic discipline; even if they learned great strategies in advance, they would still be messed up by greed — just like holding a good sword but not learning the basic sword-holding posture, only to injure themselves.

Three months later, he sent me a statement, with a balance of 36,000 U, far exceeding the initial target. I didn't praise him for his luck; I just said a simple truth: 'It’s actually not difficult to turn around with small funds; what’s difficult is to never fall into the same pit again — don’t be greedy, don’t gamble, don’t be impulsive.'

Over the years in the crypto circle, I've seen too many people who couldn't turn around with 5000 U in hand, ultimately failing due to being 'impatient, gambling, and not trusting' these three words: rushing to make quick money, always thinking of taking a big gamble to recover losses, and not believing that discipline is more reliable than luck.

In fact, I never had any 'exclusive secrets'; training students relies on three sentences: build cognition, first understand what money can be made and what pitfalls to avoid;

Discipline safeguards, turning rules into habits, not being swayed by emotions; implementing strategies, upgrading methods step by step based on account conditions, not rushing for quick success.

If you also have around 2000 U in hand, and really want to avoid those pitfalls that can wipe out your principal, and want to make steady and solid trades, pay attention to @趋势猎手老金 . For small funds, flipping capital has always been a byproduct; surviving longer and earning steadily is fundamental.

I only work with people who have strong execution — after all, no matter how good a method is, if it doesn't get implemented, it's just empty talk; being able to maintain discipline is what allows one to go far in the crypto world.
