I've seen quite a few people jump into the market with just a few hundred bucks, only to either get liquidated and quit, or complain every day that small capital just doesn't work.

Last year, a friend of mine who learned from me started out with only 580 yuan. The first time he placed an order, his hands were shaking like crazy. Three months later? His account steadily grew to 21,000, without ever increasing his leverage or adding a single extra cent.

This isn't luck. If you want to turn things around with small capital, it's never about betting everything on a single trend—it's about engraving "stability" into every single operation. After eight years in this industry, I'm more convinced than ever of one truth—the less capital you have, the less you can afford to rush. Slow is fast, and discipline is the real profit multiplier.

**Capital Allocation: Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket**

The biggest risk with small capital is going all-in. I forced my friend to practice his allocation strategy for a whole month, and it eventually became a habit:

**180 Yuan as the "Quick Blade":** Only touch two mainstream coins, ignore everything else. The goal is simple—make 3%-5% and get out immediately, no matter how promising the trend looks afterward. Why? Because the weirdest things always happen at night—retail investors’ greed and fear both brew in the dead of night.

**200 Yuan as the "Swing Hunter":** Don’t act on a single signal—wait for multiple timeframes to align. For example, only enter if both the 4-hour and 1-hour charts show a bullish structure. Made 12%? Immediately take out 60% of the profit, keep it in your pocket, and set a trailing stop for the rest. Let profits run by themselves, and don’t mess it up with itchy hands.

**200 Yuan as the "Safety Cushion":** This money is the bottom line—no matter what “100x good news” you see, never touch it.
