Starting with 2000U, reaching 52,000U in two months, and now the account has exceeded 70,000U—honestly, this is not luck, but simply sticking to three seemingly clumsy yet rock-solid rules.

Friends with less than 2000U capital, forget about getting rich overnight; surviving is the top priority. Last year, I helped a friend start with 1000U, and we avoided liquidation and major drawdowns throughout the process, relying on these 3 points.

**Rule 1: Money must be split up; full position equals gambling your life**

Divide the principal into three parts: 300U for intraday trading (at most 1 order per day, absolutely no greed); 300U for swing opportunities (it's acceptable to wait ten days or half a month without trading); 400U kept in the account as a safety fund (even if losses occur, there's capital to recover). No matter how optimistic the market looks, never go all-in. This is the first line of defense.

**Rule 2: Only trade when the trend is clear; stay in cash when the trend is uncertain**

80% of losses happen during sideways consolidation. When the direction is unclear, it’s better to wait patiently rather than blindly trade. Remember: the market is always there, but once the principal is gone, it’s really gone.

**Rule 3: Embed the rules into your mind; clear your emotions completely**

Cut losses at 2%—no hesitation; take profits at 4% and halve your position immediately to lock in gains; when floating profits exceed 20% of the principal, lock in 30% of the profits right away. The most painful rule: never add to a losing position—this is a trap that 90% of people can’t escape from. Don’t hold on, don’t gamble, don’t hope for a rebound.

How is my friend now? No longer staying up all night watching the screen; just spend 10 minutes a day checking the prices, and the account has already grown to six figures.

To survive in the crypto world, remember this logic: as long as the principal doesn’t die, you can talk about doubling. Diversify, time your entries, and control risks—these may not be exciting, but they help you avoid many years of detours. The fastest way in the crypto space is actually to slow down first.
