1000U turns into 300,000U, I rely on these 8 iron rules!

Small capital survival rules: catch 1 wave daily, never full position, with a principal <10,000, making 1 big move per day is enough!
1. Reject high-frequency trading: more than 3 trades a day will definitely lose control. In the 2024 ETH waterfall market, I only used 5% of my position to short, and in 3 hours, I earned 30 times the profit.
2. Good news realization becomes bad news: major positive news is a warning to sell the top. If you haven't sold that day, expect to sell at the next day's gap up. Beware of “news turning into a scythe.”
3. News + holiday pre-positioning: reduce positions on the 10th of each month when US CPI data is released, clear contracts 48 hours before Chinese New Year and Thanksgiving. In 2023, the FTX crash taught us that full positions have over 90% liquidation rate.
4. Medium to long-term light position guerrilla tactics: use 5% of your capital to trade, set stop-loss 5% below support, take partial profits at 50% unrealized gains. My BTC dollar-cost averaging uses only 3% of my capital but outperforms 90% of heavy traders annually.
5. Short-term core: fast, accurate, ruthless + cash reserve philosophy. The best entry point is 15-minute K-line + KDJ golden cross. Short when RSI >70, long when RSI <30. Staying in cash during sideways periods is top discipline.
6. Master volatility patterns: slow rise, quick fall; a slow rally that breaks previous lows is a short opportunity; a sharp drop with a rebound that doesn't surpass previous highs. In January 2025, SOL 1-hour plunged 40%, with only an 18-minute rebound.
7. Prioritize stop-loss: cut immediately if the direction is wrong. Fixed stop-loss at 3%, after a 50% unrealized profit, a 20% pullback must be sold. In 2024, I held ADA long positions against the trend, losing half a year's profit.
8. Technical core: 15-minute chart + KDJ. Golden cross + volume breakout can be heavy positions. MACD divergence + shrinking volume means immediate exit.
Discipline + position control + take profit & stop-loss + rhythm observation are the secrets to small funds turning around! Don’t be greedy, follow the iron rules, and turning the tide is not a dream!
