In the cryptocurrency world, many people chase highs and lows, but there is one female trader who impresses me greatly—she started with less than a thousand USDT and achieved steady asset growth in just six months. While others are busy chasing hot trends and new concepts, she always adheres to her own "defensive system," often saying: "Small funds should act like special forces, striking accurately and leaving a backup plan."

The core of this system is three simple yet effective rules:

First, layered fund allocation. She clearly divides her money: 35% for day trading, strictly capping profits at 1.8%, and she exits at the point without being greedy; another 35% waits for swing opportunities, and she never enters without a clear signal; the remaining 30% is "strategic reserve funds," which she never uses lightly. Even during market fluctuations, this money serves as her last safety net. Because of this, no matter how fiercely the market drops, she always has capital to counterattack.

Second, she focuses like a sniper. With thousands of tokens in the crypto space, she only zeroes in on two core targets. "With limited money, it must be used on the most certain opportunities," she always says, "Being distracted by too many coins can cause you to miss key signals, which is the most hidden cost for small funds." By thoroughly understanding the volatility patterns of these two targets, she has developed a sharper market instinct than others, rarely missing the rhythm.

Third, she has ingrained discipline into her very bones. Her trading rules are executed almost "mechanically": if a single trade loses 0.7%, she immediately cuts her losses; if profits reach 1.2%, she locks in half of the position's profit right away; she never chases highs out of fear of missing out (FOMO) and will not blindly add to losing positions to break even. These rules are as natural to her as breathing, and they have helped her avoid the majority of emotional trading pitfalls.

Later, she told me that for small funds to grow large, it has never relied on the miracle of "sudden doubling," but rather on steady and careful steps. Every stop loss is tuition, and every profit is building confidence. The essence of this trade is a zero-sum game; the ones who truly laugh last are not the ones who predict the best, but those who make fewer mistakes and can control risks—the "defensive faction."

How to plan funds, how to grasp timing, how to control rhythm, I can slowly share with you, helping you avoid years of detours; sometimes it just takes these few straightforward words.
