#数字资产市场动态 1200 bucks startup capital to 120,000 — My Live Trading Notes



People often ask me: with such a small amount of funds, how can I turn things around in the crypto market? $XRP

Honestly, I have only two key points: the right method and strict discipline.

Last year, I started with just 1200 bucks and managed to grow it to 120,000 in four months — all without using high-leverage futures trading or reckless all-in chasing. It was purely based on a repeatable trading framework. Today, I’ll break down this strategy so everyone can follow it and avoid many pitfalls.

**Step 1: Position Sizing Rules — Staying Alive Is the Most Important**

How did I split the 1200 bucks? Into three equal parts, each 400 bucks.

The first part is for intraday swings — take profit when it rises 3%, don’t be greedy; the second part waits for big trends, only trade when the move exceeds 15% — that’s the meat; the third part is for survival, don’t touch it at all, really. Going all-in with all funds is a death sentence; staying alive is the only way to turn things around. $HNT

**Step 2: Assess the Situation Before Entering**

Most of the time, the market is just oscillating — no clear direction. Don’t be reckless during these times. The right time to act is when a trend emerges or a key level is broken. When you enter and make a 25% profit, take some of the profit off the table first. Let the remaining position run, don’t overtrade.

**Step 3: Ironclad Risk Management — No Exceptions**

This is a lifesaver — if a single loss hits 2% of your principal, cut immediately, no discussion. When you make a 5% profit, close half of your position right away, and let the rest run with a stop-loss to break even. Never add to losing positions to average down — that’s a straight path to liquidation. $SUI

In the market, being conservative is more valuable than being aggressive. When others are screaming as they cut losses, you’re quietly accumulating. Over a year or two, this difference becomes obvious.

In short, mindset and execution are the keys. Starting with 1200 bucks to reach 120,000 can also lead to zero if you lack discipline. If you’re always disturbed by small fluctuations and get flustered when entering trades, the problem isn’t the market — it’s your methodology.

Follow the principle of stability, take it step by step, and you’ll eventually see a different result.

Sounds good, but the key is still execution. Most people fail due to their mindset.

1,200 to 120,000 sounds great, but how many can actually hold onto it? Mindset is one thing; talking is easy, but actually doing it, haha.

It sounds easy, but how many get stopped out at the 2% stop-loss line during execution?

Sounds good, but I bet 99% of the people I've seen die at the mindset hurdle.
