Recently mentored a beginner. He entered the market with 2,400U and grew it to 97,000U in two months. Now his account has expanded to over 170,000U. Throughout the process, he never experienced a liquidation.



Some might say it's luck. But I want to say, luck can't favor the same person for two consecutive months. There's a system behind this. Back then, I relied on this logic to grow from just over 7,000U to achieving true financial freedom.

**First Layer: Full Positioning Is Suicide**

Funds must be separated. Staying alive is always the top priority.

I told him to split the 2,000U directly into three parts:
- 700U dedicated to day trading. At most one order per day, withdraw at the set time, don’t fight the trend.
- 700U for swing trading. Stay inactive for ten days or half a month; when you trade, aim for big profits.
- 600U as a safety net. Don’t touch this part. It’s reserved for turning things around.

Many people go all-in immediately, but instead of being killed by the market, they block all their escape routes. Remember: surviving is the qualification to talk about profit.

**Second Layer: Don’t Fool Around, Only Eat the "Thick Meat"**

80% of the time in crypto is sideways. If you keep entering and exiting daily, you're just giving money to the market.

During sideways periods, I do only one thing: do nothing. Wait for the trend to truly emerge before acting. Another strict rule: if the account profit exceeds 20% of the principal, withdraw 30% immediately. Experts aren’t profitable every day; they accumulate strength and strike when the market is ripe.

**Third Layer: Trade Like a Machine, Don’t Mix in Emotions**

Many people can’t change this even if they try.

Stop-loss at 2%, must cut. Take profit at 4%, reduce position first. Never add to a losing position. All rules are pre-set; when the market arrives, follow the process. Don’t overthink.

Emotions are the biggest enemy of retail traders. The real way to make money is: let the money run itself, you just press the buttons. Having less capital isn’t scary; what’s scary is always trying to eat the whole pie at once.

Growing 2,400U into over 170,000U isn’t due to some magic operation. It’s all about this system: lock in the risk, let profits run. In simple terms, it’s a dumb method.

If you still can’t sleep over a few hundred U’s fluctuation, or don’t know when to enter, exit, or reduce positions, we can talk. How to split positions, read trends, grasp the right timing—I can explain all this in detail. One person alone can’t do it all; a good team guiding you is always better than blindly exploring on your own. I’m always here.

It sounds ideal, but in real trading, who can really stick to it?

That's right, the method of splitting positions is crucial for keeping oneself alive.

Another story of going from 2,400 to 170,000. Basically, it's about surviving without greed. I truly understand this.

The split position strategy is indeed powerful, but going from 2,400 to 170,000 still requires catching the right opportunity.
