In three months, I rolled it to 12,000 U, relying not on luck but on executing simple rules to perfection.
Turning 5000 yuan into 50,000 hinges on leveraging contracts to amplify profits, but you must play with a 'tight grip' - these two-step strategies have been proven effective; beginners can avoid 80% of pitfalls by following them.
Step one: Small funds rolling snowball (300U→1100U): Test with 100U, run when you double.
Convert 5000 yuan into 300U (about 2000 yuan), and practice without being greedy. Only take 100U into the market each time, like practicing at a stall; take profits and withdraw when you earn, and cut losses promptly when you lose.
Core rules: Take profit when doubled, cut losses when halved.
Set take-profit lines firmly: Buy long at 100U, and exit immediately at 200U, even if it continues to rise; don't be greedy. Last year, I used this trick with SOL, winning three times in a row to roll from 100U to 800U, with not a single moment of reluctance.
Set stop-loss lines firmly: Cut decisively if it drops to 50U, with a maximum loss of 50U per trade; never hold onto a losing trade. The most common mistake for beginners is to 'wait for a rebound,' resulting in a 100U loss turning into 10U, losing even the chance to break even.
Play a maximum of three rounds: stop after winning three times (100→200→400→800), plus some small profits in between, then withdraw around 1100U. This stage relies on probability; taking profits while you can preserves your capital; greedy people often lose both capital and profits.
Remember: This step is about practicing 'discipline,' not gambling. Only those who can strictly execute stop-loss and take-profit can play bigger games later.
Step two: Combined strategy for steady expansion (starting from 1100U): Use three tricks simultaneously to earn with risk diversification.
After funds reach 1100U, split into three parts to play with a combination of strategies, including both short-term quick profits and long-term foundations, making risks more controllable.
1. Quick in and out 'stall selling flow' (100U): Run when you earn 3%-5%, accumulating small gains.
Monitor 15-minute candlesticks daily, focusing on sudden fluctuations of mainstream coins: For example, if BTC suddenly surges in volume in the afternoon, quickly enter with a small position, making a 3%-5% profit and exiting immediately, like selling in a market for small profits.
Last year, I relied on this trick, averaging 20-50U profit per day; accumulating small gains is much less risky than chasing highs. The key is to be 'quick with hands and legs': if it can't rise, run; don't wait for a pullback; short-term profits come from immediate price differences.
2. Zen-style regular investment 'piggy bank' (15U per week): Treat contracts as fixed-term investments.
Every week, consistently take 15U to open a BTC long position (for example, when it’s 50,000 dollars, expecting to take profit at 100,000 dollars); regardless of short-term fluctuations, hold on; if it drops, consider it 'storing money at a low price' and hold for six months to a year.
This trick is suitable for those who can't keep an eye on the market; last year, a follower invested regularly for 8 months, with BTC rising from 30,000 dollars to 60,000 dollars, and the 15U weekly investment ultimately quadrupled, much better than putting money in a bank. But remember: only invest in mainstream coins like BTC/ETH; investing in altcoins is like throwing money away.
3. Key trend trades 'bite the meat flow' (invest all remaining funds): Bet big when you see a major market trend.
Wait for major signals like the Fed cutting interest rates or Bitcoin breaking through key resistance levels, and concentrate leftover funds to open positions. Set rules in advance.
Profit target: Take half the profit when you double, set a trailing stop for the rest.
Stop-loss bottom line: Maximum loss of 20%, cut immediately when it hits.
This trick requires keeping an eye on the news and technical analysis; beginners should not rush to play, but first practice the first two tricks to gain experience. On the day the Fed ended interest rate hikes last year, I used this trick to open a BTC long position and made 300U in 3 days, equivalent to half a month's earnings from a stall.
Life-saving reminder: These 4 rules are more important than money-making techniques.
Contracts are a double-edged sword; they can amplify gains but also accelerate losses. These four iron rules must be ingrained in your mind.
Single investment should not exceed 1/10 of your principal: Even if you are bullish on the market, the maximum amount for each trade should be 10% of your total funds. With a 5000 yuan principal, the maximum single investment is 500 yuan; don't follow others and go all in.
Always set a stop-loss for every order, and never manually cancel it: Fill in the stop-loss price when opening an order, and it will automatically close when the price hits; don't have the lucky mindset of 'let's wait a bit longer.' I've seen too many people manually cancel their stop-loss, resulting in a 100U loss turning into 0.
A maximum of 3 trades per day, stop when feeling itchy: Exceeding 3 trades will lead to chaotic operations; when feeling itchy, play a game to distract your attention; maintaining your mindset is more important than making one more profit.
Profit can be withdrawn immediately, securing gains: Withdraw 500U to your bank account after earning 1000U, convert it into living expenses or stable investments, and don't keep it all on the exchange. Making money in crypto is fast, but losing is even faster; only what you secure is truly yours.
Making money with contracts relies on being 'harsh on oneself.'
From 5000 to 50,000, the core is not how good the techniques are, but whether you can manage yourself: take profits when you should without being greedy, stop losses without dragging, and know when to withdraw. I've seen too many people who understand the techniques but can't make money; the problem lies in 'emotional trading' - wanting to make back losses when profitable, and wanting to regain capital when losing, ultimately getting deeper into trouble.
Remember: Contracts are tools, not a casino. Repeatedly and consistently execute simple rules, letting discipline become your 'confidence in making money.' It's okay to start slow; making fewer losses is still a gain; steady and steady allows you to survive longer and earn more in the crypto space.
