Hello everyone, I'm your old friend, a seasoned driver in the crypto world with many years of experience.
Today we won't talk about K-line mysticism or the hidden opportunities in sectors; let's just discuss how small funds can survive and still maintain dignity.
Late last night, a WeChat message popped up.
He is the shy boy who asked me six months ago, 'Brother, I only have 800U, I'm afraid I'll lose it all tomorrow.'
He sent a screenshot showing the account balance: 30217U.
Postscript: 'I raised 10,000U and bought my mom an iPhone. She said this phone is light and doesn't weigh down her hand.'
I stared at that sentence, suddenly feeling a bit of a stir.
Half a year ago, he had 800U in his pocket, like holding his entire life’s fortune, asking if I could give him a few pointers.
I replied to him with three sentences of 'human words' that I also summarized from my own stumbles.
Money is divided into three parts, only follow the trend, don't owe hands.
The first part is called 'meal money'.
Take 300U, only do day trades with BTC/ETH for certain fluctuations.
Remember, 2%-4% is like ordering takeout, just pick it up at the door and don’t fall in love with the market.
He tried for the first time, ETH chewed through 36U, netting 33U after fees; he said, 'It turns out earning U is easier than delivering takeout, and I don’t have to climb stairs.'
The second part is called 'opportunity money'.
Wait for a golden cross or death cross above 4 hours for 250U, if there’s no signal, turn off the phone and sleep.
In June, XRP was as lazy as a dog, he asked me, 'Should I advance a bit?'
I retorted, 'Why go in during a sideways market? Are you donating WIFI expenses to the exchange?'
He held back.
In July, it broke 0.51, he followed up at 0.512, cut in half at 0.58, sold everything at 0.62, a single trade +21%.
That day he told me, 'It turns out patience is the best leverage.'
The third part is called 'lifesaving money'.
Finally 250U, absolutely don’t move, that’s your last pair of underwear left at the poker table.
In August, there was a fake breakout of BTC, his short position got swept, losing 9.6U, which is less than 1.2% of the principal.
He immediately turned off the phone, and the next day continued to follow the signals.
Later that trade made back more, he said, 'Losses should be clear and transparent, gains should be justified and confident.'
In half a year, 800U turned into 30,000U, zero liquidation, zero borrowing, zero confusion.
He said the most satisfying thing isn’t the number, but the moment when the U is withdrawn and becomes a new phone in mom's hands, light yet heavy enough to suppress all rumors.
I know many people wonder what 800U can do?
It’s better to go all in, better to rush for a shitcoin, better to gamble for 'financial freedom.'
But I want to say: this world rewards not just bravery, but those who are brave and disciplined.
The core of small funds is not getting rich quickly, but learning how to survive and become rich.
If you have ever stared blankly at the K-line in the middle of the night, holding only a few hundred or a few thousand U.
Try putting these nine words on the screen:
Diversify, follow the trend, don't owe hands.
The market is always there, opportunities are always available, but those who survive until today next year must understand the ruthless saying 'divide money before making money.'
I am trend catcher Old K, here to share only trading logic that lets you sleep well.
