Holding a few thousand U, always afraid of missing the market and rushing to place orders?
Brother, listen to this advice: if you want to make money in the crypto world, first learn to "stay calm and not move".
Last week, a friend came to me, clutching 5000 U, saying he was feeling anxious watching the market rise and if he didn’t enter soon, he’d lose big.
I simply asked him: "Did you lose money before because you missed the opportunity, or was it due to reckless actions?"
He was stunned—initially, he lost 800 U down to just over 200 due to frequent trading.
I was the same back then, staring at the market all day, wanting to make ten trades, paying a bunch in fees, and watching my account shrink.
The real turnaround started with setting "limit order rules" for myself: a maximum of two trades per week, and forced to stay out when uncertain.
I waited 4 days for my first trade, only taking action when SOL retraced to the 20-day moving average, and decisively exited with a 1100 U profit after 6 hours.
At that moment, I fully realized: it wasn’t that my skills were poor, but rather that my actions were chaotic, driven by the emotion of "fear of missing out".
Later, each time I decided to trade, I would first observe the major structure for three days, watching the sentiment and volume to see if it could hold, and wrote down my take-profit and stop-loss levels before placing an order.
Ironically, this "slower pace" made my account more stable.
So, when you ask how to play with 5000 U? The answer isn’t to trade more, but to trade less and trade accurately.
Those who chase the highs and lows every day seem to seize many opportunities, but in reality, they are wearing down their principal.
Opportunities will never cease, but your principal is limited.
I managed to survive from just over 200 U to now, not because my predictions were accurate, but because I’ve given up "greed" and "impatience".
The next wave of the market is approaching, brothers with small capital remember: first stabilize your hands, then seize the most reliable opportunity—that’s the most stable logic for making money in the crypto world.
Once alone, stumbling in the dark, now the light is in my hands.
The light is always on, will you follow? @不贪的阿 K
