#数字资产市场动态 Honestly speaking: If you want to survive in the crypto world with a small amount of money, it's not about how much you can earn, but how long you can last.$BTC $ETH

I know a guy who started with only 500U last year and turned it into 28,000U in three months, all without a single liquidation. He's not a chosen one, just someone with a bit more patience and discipline than others. Here are three real and effective tips for those with a principal below 800U:

**First Tip: Divide your money into three parts to keep yourself alive**

For the 500-800U range, you must split it like this:

Day trading accounts for 30%-40%, only trade BTC and ETH, exit when you see 3%-5% volatility, make no more than two trades a day, then stop. Avoid altcoins altogether.

Swing trading accounts for 30%-40%, wait until the 4-hour K-line truly breaks out of the range with volume, then enter, holding for 3 to 5 days. The goal is to earn 15%-20% and then exit.

The remaining 20%-30% should be locked up as your life-saving fund, which you must not touch no matter how chaotic the market gets. With this foundation, there's a chance to turn things around.

**Second Tip: Don't fight sideways markets, learn to follow the trend**

What do 80% of the crypto market's time look like? Sideways. Frequent trading just gives transaction fees to the exchange. If there's no signal, just stay put.

Wait for real opportunities to act. If you've already gained 12%, lock in half of the profit. Small amounts seek stability, not the thrill of a full gamble.

**Third Tip: Treat discipline as your lifeline, never let emotions control you**

Single trade stop-loss should not exceed 3% of your principal. When the price hits the stop level, get out immediately—no bargaining.

If a single position gains more than 5%, cut half of the position right away. The remaining position should have a stop-loss set at the cost basis, so even in the worst case, you break even.

Most importantly: when your account is losing money, absolutely do not add to your position. This is gambling psychology acting up. Playing like this will always end badly.

Ultimately, the advantage of small capital is flexibility—you can change strategies quickly. The biggest danger is the gambler mentality of "I need a big turnaround." Follow the rules to protect your principal and gradually accumulate profits. Turning 800U into 20,000U isn't that hard. It just tests your patience and whether you can truly stick to discipline.
