#大户持仓动态 Small accounts are really prone to crashing, especially when you only have a little over 1000 USDT.

I've seen too many people who just entered the crypto world want to make a quick kill, only to lose their principal in one downturn. No matter how much BTC or other mainstream coins fall, they can't withstand the stress of full position trading.

Last year, I knew a friend whose account only had 600 USDT, and he was trembling just to press the order button. His biggest fear was making a wrong move and losing all his money.

My advice to him was straightforward: "Don't think about quick turnaround; stick to the plan and take it step by step."

And what was the result? His account grew to over 8,000 USDT in a month, then to 30,000 USDT in three months, all without ever liquidating his position.

This isn't luck; it's discipline.

The reason he made it this far is because of these three unbreakable bottom lines:

**Position Segmentation is Life Insurance**

Divide your funds into three parts. The main 600 USDT is dedicated to daily fluctuation trading, focusing only on highly liquid assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, exiting after a 3%-5% move; 200-300 USDT is used for swing trading, only acting on clear signals, holding for 3 to 5 days for stability; the remaining 300+ USDT stays in the account, untouched regardless of market volatility—these are your chips for turning things around.

Observe those accounts that go all-in—when the market is good, their eyes light up; when it dips a little, they panic. Such psychological resilience won't last long. Truly consistent profit-makers always keep some reserve funds ready.

**Most of the Market Time is Frustrating; Don't Get Ripped Off by Platform Fees**

Sideways markets dominate, and frequent trading is just giving exchanges your money. When there's no clear direction, stay honest and patient. Once a signal appears, act decisively.

When your profit hits 12%, take out half—locking in gains is the way to go. Top traders operate on the principle "don't trade unless you're sure, but when you do, go all in," remaining calm and avoiding chasing highs or lows. As your account grows, they steadily take profits without emotional swings.

**Rules Are the Only Things That Protect You**

This is the most critical—limit each loss to 2%, cut losses immediately without bargaining; when profits exceed 4%, reduce half of your position, let the rest run; never double down on a losing position—this is when emotions are most likely to betray you.

You don't need to hit every point perfectly, but you must always stick to your rules. Ultimately, making money is about using strict systems to restrain impulsive tendencies.

Having a small principal isn't the problem; what you fear most is always thinking "this wave will turn around." Turning 1200 USDT into 30,000 USDT never depends on one or two perfect trades, but on consistent discipline, patience, and absolute respect for the rules.

If you were wandering blindly in darkness before, now you have a clear direction and method. The key is whether you're willing to truly follow through.
