Playing contracts with 2000 USDT, still wanting to achieve a million? Don’t laugh, some people have really done it.
Last year, a young guy who had just entered the circle complained to me that he only had 2000 USDT and didn’t dare to trade, didn’t dare to go heavy, fearing he would return to square one overnight.
I told him: Don’t think about getting rich overnight; learn to survive first before you have the right to turn things around.
He divides the money into three parts.
A low-leverage position in trending coins, like Ethereum or BTC, which have strong support from a big cycle, slowly ambushing with 3-5 times leverage, not moving, waiting for the big cycle to reap.
One part is a tactical position, specifically targeting moments of emotional collapse, such as the second lowest point after a sharp decline; at this time, the market is the most panicked, and stop-loss orders are the densest, making it the best time to pick up chips.
There’s another part that he never touches, which he calls the ‘revival coin’ kept for recovering after a liquidation. This is not superstition; it’s a trump card for position management—you don’t have this trump card, and your mindset will blow up quickly.
He is very particular about stop-loss, not the kind that just sets a technical level casually. He watches the clearing heat map of the exchange, hiding the stop-loss in a place that the main force can't reach, allowing himself to avoid countless sweeps.
When he makes a profit, every time it exceeds 50% of his principal, he immediately withdraws 30% of the profit and converts it to stablecoins, keeping the remaining 70% for compound interest. This trick is particularly important in the crypto circle; it’s not just about ‘locking in profits’ but also about preventing himself from getting carried away emotionally.
He is very picky about the time he watches the market. The liquidity trap from 2-5 AM is when European and American institutions change shifts, often with opportunities for false breakouts and false spikes; there are also significant data releases half an hour before, like CPI and non-farm payrolls, during which the market often makes the largest intraday fluctuations in one go. Other times? He turns off his phone and sleeps, saying he doesn’t want to die from ‘itchy hands syndrome.’
The most ruthless move is ‘reverse hedging.’ When the entire network is making high-leverage long positions on a certain coin, he opens a 0.5x reverse position on Bybit, like planting a landmine, waiting for others to step on it. This is a way to earn ‘fuel for long liquidation,’ very stable.
Three months later, 2000 USDT turned into 190,000 USDT.
It’s not luck, it’s a combination of method, rhythm, and position that supports it.
Most people die in the market, not because the market is bad, but because they lack methods and discipline. The market never loses; it only gives money to those who execute properly.
