Many beginners' first question when entering the crypto space is: I only have about 1500 yuan in capital, can I make money?

Honestly, yes. But the prerequisite is that you understand the rules.

The crypto world is not a casino. Betting with small funds is not a dream; it's asking for death. What you lack is not a big market trend, but a way to survive.

I have a complete novice under my wing, starting with 1200 yuan, growing to 25,000 in 4 months, and now the account is over 38,000. Not once has the position been liquidated. Someone says this is luck? Turning around with 1200 yuan relying on luck? Ridiculous. The real factor that determines win or lose is strategy, not fate.

**First Tip: Capital Segmentation, Not Dividing Means Waiting to Die**

The biggest pitfall of small funds is one word—full.

People trading with full positions, when a market move is unfavorable, just go into a daze.

The correct approach is to split the money into three parts:

**Intraday Tactical Position**: Small position, focus on short-term opportunities, enter and exit each trade, never greedy.

**Swing Position**: Wait until a big trend truly arrives before acting. This kind of position needs to be held for possibly months.

**Insurance Reserve**: Never touch this part. This is your last capital to turn things around.

Is it possible to grow from zero to 30,000? It depends on whether you can survive to see that day. 90% of those who blow up are not because the market is bad, but because they put everything in on the first trade and lost everything in one wave.

**Second Tip: Don't Fight the Fluctuations, Only Eat the Trend's Meat**

80% of the time in crypto is spent in consolidation. Consolidation is specifically designed to harvest impatient traders.

If there's no opportunity, wait. If the trend is unclear, endure.

Once the direction is clear, enter when it's right, and exit at the target.

My principle is simple: when the account earns more than 20% of the principal, immediately take out 30% to lock in profits.

Big accounts share a common trait—most of the time they look like dead bodies, but once they act, they can ride three years of market trends.

**Third Tip: Speak with Rules, Don't Let Emotions Cause Trouble**

I never rely on intuition; I follow rules strictly:

Cut losses at 2%, no exceptions.

Take profit at 4%, reduce positions to lock in gains, and preserve some capital.

Never add to a losing position—that's the bottom line.

You don't need to always predict the right direction, but you must always execute correctly. Experts are not error-free; they are those who cut losses when mistakes happen, preventing a single error from becoming a fatal blow.

Having little capital is never the problem. The real issue is that too many people are still dreaming of overnight riches.
