I have a friend who used a small amount of starting capital last year and steadily achieved a good amount in just a few months, the key is that he never experienced a liquidation. How did he do it? It's not that he is a genius, but he adhered to a few iron rules. Today, I will share these insights with you; this is my personal opinion, but every word comes from practical observation.

First, the money needs to be used separately, don't 'cook it all together'.

What is the biggest fear for small capital? It's the fear that you might just 'sudden dive in', and then your mindset collapses directly. That little bit of funds cannot withstand any blind charge.

My advice is to forcibly divide it into different purposes, and mentally lock it in well:

One part is used for short-term fluctuations, quick in and out, to earn a bit of pocket money. Remember, it's 'pocket money'; take your profits and don't expect to get rich from this.

Another part is to wait for the right moment to act. Wait until the trend is clearer, then follow in to take advantage of the trend. This part requires patience; don't stare at it every day and scare yourself.

The last part is 'emergency funds.' Even if the King of Heaven comes, don't touch it! It is your trump card and sense of security. As long as this money is still there, you have a chance. Many people haven't lost money because they made a profit, but they lost everything again afterward because they didn't have this 'ballast stone.'

Second, learn to 'zone out'; most of the time, it's not worth your effort.

In this market, 80% of the time is spent in sideways movement, fluctuation, and grinding. If you keep messing around in such a market, the result will basically be that your capital gets reduced with every trade, all eaten up by transaction fees.

The opportunities worth taking might only come once or twice a month. At other times, turn off the software and do what you need to do. Restraining yourself is the highest form of discipline for adults. Wait until that signal is clear, then enter decisively. Moreover, once you're in profit, remember to withdraw some regularly and place it in your safe account. The numbers on the screen are virtual; only what you can spend is real.

Third, admit when you're wrong, and know how to be content when you make a profit.

This is the ultimate test of mentality and discipline, and it is also the biggest dividing line between novices and players.

Set your stop-loss point in advance, and leave when it's triggered. Don't hold any fantasies: 'What if it rebounds immediately?' There are no 'what ifs.' Your capital is too small; one 'what if' could make you exit. Replace luck with rules.

When profits reach expectations, actively reduce your position. Don't always think about selling at the peak; that's something only the gods can do. Take some profits, and your mindset will be as stable as a mountain. Greed is the only reason for profit withdrawal.

The most important point: if you lose, absolutely do not blindly add more money to average down! This is the fastest path to turning a small loss into a big loss. If the direction is wrong, stopping is progress; holding on is a descent into the abyss.

I know, it's tempting to watch stories of others getting rich quickly. But we have little capital and can't afford that kind of thrill. What we pursue is not overnight miracles, but to survive in this market first, then steadily and sustainably grow.

Don't keep using real money to test things; the cost is too high. Calm down and establish your own rules. This market will always have opportunities, but the premise is that you must always be in the game.
