Eight years into trading cryptocurrencies, I finally turned the act of "staying alive" into a true long-term business.

I've experienced margin calls and been a rookie trader, but now I can support myself solely through trading—no luck involved, no all-in bets.

In 2024, my account grew fiftyfold. I also withdrew large sums twice to pay off my house in full. Without these two withdrawals, the figure would be around 85 times.

But I don't tell fairy tales; I only share strategies that can be replicated.

My core principle is simple: small capital must survive first; only then can it accelerate.

**1. Position size isn't about opening—it's about "building"**

Starting with 800U, I only used one-third to open the first trade. The remaining funds are my reserve, untouched. No signals? Don't add to positions. During a dip, don't bottom-fish. Don't stubbornly hold onto losses. The less capital you have, the more you must cherish your life.

**2. Only trade high-confidence setups; during choppy markets, just shut down the software**

Finding entry points is like shooting—if you're not aligned, don't pull the trigger. Break down a complete market cycle into three parts: initiation, pullback, continuation. As for choppy markets? Turn off the software and don't bother.

**3. Profit strategy: keep rolling**

If the first trade earns 100U, that 100U becomes the principal for the next round. Always remember one rule—position size should never exceed 30% of total funds. Set stop-losses in advance; exit immediately when hit. Rolling over depends on discipline, not courage.

**4. When others are going crazy, I withdraw**

I don't catch every move, but I participate in each phase at the right rhythm. Rebuilding a position isn't gambling; it's compounding gradually over time.

This strategy is tailored for small capital. The smaller the principal, the more you must respect the rhythm and position management. I've seen too many people rush into full positions with just a few thousand U, only to lose more the more anxious they get, and eventually their mindset collapses.

Account doubling is just the result; the real goal is simple: make the account balance grow a little each day. Talk is cheap; real trading speaks for itself. The key is the coordination of position control and rhythm—this is the secret to long-term profitability.
