Have you ever seen someone turn 1800 into 80,000? This guy did it in three months, and he never blew up a position.

Last year, I met a student who saved up some living expenses and wanted to give it a try, totaling 1800U. At that time, I thought to myself, what can this little capital do? But seeing that he genuinely wanted to learn, I spent some time with him.

Three months later, the account balance turned into 80,000 U. He told me just yesterday that now is the time to cut losses without any hesitation.

His ability to reach today is not due to luck; he has truly engraved a few principles into his mind. These are experiences that I have gained through my own losses. Today, I share them in hopes that they can help even one person.

**Principle One: Never go all-in on a single trade**

Many people come in and bet all their assets in one direction. When it goes up, they are overjoyed; when it goes down, they become emotional. I advised him to divide his principal into three parts: one-third for short-term trades, one-third to catch trends, and the last third to hold as a base asset. During the major drop in May, while others in the group were crying out for help, he was able to observe calmly.

**Principle Two: Don't Be Greedy for the Bones When Eating Meat**

There are actually not many times when the market is truly worth entering. When a trade has made over 20%, it's best to pocket 30% of the profits and let the rest go. Last week, he operated this way during the $ZEC market wave and ended up with a 30% profit without having to stay up all night watching the K-line.

**Principle Three: Set strict rules for yourself, don't get emotional**

The biggest fear in trading is acting on emotions. The rules set for him are very simple: if losses hit 2%, just accept it and exit; if profits reach 4%, reduce a portion of the position first; never add to losing positions to average down. At first, he felt pained to cut losses, but now he is grateful that these rules helped him avoid several crashes.

In simple terms, those who survive in the cryptocurrency world are not necessarily the smartest, but they are definitely the most disciplined. If you keep thinking about making a big turnaround, the market will just send you back home.

Risk control sounds simple, but it really depends on your own persistence and determination. Others' experiences can only serve as references; the trading system that truly suits you must be gradually honed through practical experience.
