#美SEC促进加密资产创新监管框架 Recently, many friends have asked how to trade contracts with small capital. Today, I'm sharing a three-stage compounding strategy that I've tested live, showing the complete path from 1,000U to 100,000U.



The core principle is simple: capture certainty through structure, don't gamble on the market with emotions.

**Stage One: Foundation Period (1,000U → 4,000U)**

At this stage, focus on one thing—catching the first wave of rebounds in new tokens. Only use 10% of your capital per trade, which means 100U with 10x leverage, and the maximum loss per trade is 10U, allowing for many trial-and-error attempts. Set your target at 20% profit per trade, then exit.

For example, a recent hot new token rebounded 30% within three hours. With 100U capital and 10x leverage, that's a 300U profit, bringing the account to 1,300U. In this stage, only capture the fattest part of the first move, and don't get greedy for subsequent volatility.

**Stage Two: Explosive Growth Period (4,000U → 20,000U)**

Once capital reaches 4,000U, start trading trending mainline coins. Increase your position to 20%, i.e., 800U, but reduce leverage to 5x, tighten stop loss to 5%, and widen take profit to 15%-20%. Once in profit, immediately move the stop loss to breakeven to ensure gains aren't lost.

For example, during the FLX hot trend, it rose 40%, and I only took a portion, earning 3,200U in a single trade, bringing the account to 7,400U. The key at this stage is choosing the right mainline assets and not blindly chasing.

**Stage Three: Defensive Period (20,000U → 100,000U)**

At this scale, risk diversification becomes essential. I allocate 30% to buy BTC spot as an anchor, then split the remaining 14,000U into seven trades, each with 2,000U in ETH perpetuals, reduce leverage to 2x, and set stop loss at 3% and take profit at 5%. If just 4 out of 7 trades succeed, the account will break through 40,000U.

One iron rule here: if total equity drawdown exceeds 15%, immediately cut 60% of positions. Protecting principal is more important than anything else.

**Three Essential Risk Control Rules:**
1. Never allocate more than 10% of your capital to a single trade
2. Only trade when BTC price action is stable
3. Profit = Position Management × Odds × Execution

Compounding is not about gambling on luck. It’s about systematic position control and strict stop-loss discipline. The core is to keep losses small and profits big—let your profits run, but never let losses get out of control.

technically speaking, the risk validation here is... insufficient at best. 10x leverage on new coins? that's not a strategy, that's a deprecated practice waiting for a zero-day liquidation event. the whole "system" hinges on timing execution perfectly—which statistically improbable for retail.

The key to trading contracts with small funds is not to be greedy. What this guy said is correct.

Damn, this position management is actually pretty impressive, but honestly, the initial wave with new coins really depends on luck.

That's right, risk control is the only true key to survival.

100U with 10x leverage? Bro, I need to dig into the on-chain data for this... If you’re giving such detailed info, why isn’t there any address flow evidence?

I have to admit, this methodology is logically sound, especially the iron rule of cutting 60% of your position after a 15% drawdown—it has really saved a lot of people.

It looks good, but the actual execution depends on the people involved.
