I only have 1500 USDT, can I really achieve 30x returns? Some have done it.

I've seen many beginners who, just entering the market, want to get rich overnight with a few hundred or a thousand dollars. And the result? Most can't last a month before losing everything.

But I also mentored a student who started with 1500U and managed to grow it to 30,000U in just 5 months, with the account now stable above 45,000U. Throughout the process, there was never a margin call. This is not luck; there is a system behind it.

**Step 1: Divide the money into three parts, the principal must stay alive**

How do I split 1500U?

- 500U for short-term opportunities, take a 3% profit and exit
- 500U for waiting for major trends, only engage in opportunities with over 15% returns
- 500U stay in the account, do not touch even if the market is tempting

Many people quickly exit because they go all-in at the start. Remember a fundamental rule: staying alive is already half the victory.

**Step 2: Only ride the main upward wave, stay in cash during sideways markets**

Most of the market time is spent in non-directional fluctuations. Frequent trading just pays fees. If you can't see clearly, take a break. Don’t force trades out of impatience.

Wait for a breakout, wait for confirmation, then ride the wave. When your account has increased by 25%, immediately take some profits off the table to secure gains, and let the rest continue to grow.

Trade less, observe more. Every time you trade, make it count. This is far better than constant reckless operations.

**Step 3: Replace feelings with discipline**

Three bottom lines:

- Single trade loss should not exceed 2% of the principal; cut quickly when hit, don’t wait;
- Once a 5% unrealized profit is reached, withdraw half to secure the gains, let the rest run;
- If you're trapped, you're trapped. Averaging down is poison for small funds.

You may not always predict the right direction, but as long as you execute properly, making money becomes a math problem.

In essence, the secret to turning small funds into large ones is not gambling but having strict risk control, a calm mindset, and strong execution. If you still lose sleep over a few tens of dollars' rise or fall, and can't understand trends or allocate positions, you'll forever be stuck in the same place.

Turning 1500U into 45,000U is not a legend; it’s a replicable methodology.
