Holding just a few thousand USDT and dreaming every day about how many times the next market wave can multiply—I understand that feeling. But honestly, most people’s final result is either getting kicked out by the market or destroying their accounts with their emotions.



A friend once asked me, "How many times can 3000U multiply?" As soon as I heard that, I understood—this guy isn’t lacking trading methods, he’s just too impatient.

I told him: "The opportunity is actually always there; the problem is you keep messing around when there’s no chance." How to put it—when the market is calm, you can’t help but trade frequently; when it’s highly volatile, you start to panic. In the end, your account just becomes an empty shell.

I’ve walked this path myself in the early days. When I had over 20,000U, I kept messing around and ended up with less than a hundred. That period was really tough—watching the account balance shrink day by day, the psychological pressure was intense.

Later, I got fed up with this rollercoaster feeling and set a basic rule for myself: at most two trades per week. If I exceeded that, I would absolutely not trade.

For my first trade, I waited several days, constantly watching the charts. It wasn’t until a key retracement point appeared that I entered with a small position. I caught that trade pretty well—made over a thousand dollars within a few hours.

It was at that moment I suddenly understood a principle: Making money doesn’t rely on "frequent trading," but on "waiting for the right opportunity."

Since then, my principle has been very clear. First, only look at market trends I can understand. Coins I don’t understand? Don’t touch them. Positions I’m not confident in? Don’t trade them. Especially when emotions are high and impulsiveness is easy, I can hold back even the most tempting opportunities.

After sticking to this for a while, my account gradually stabilized, and the gains became quite substantial. But it’s not because I suddenly became an expert; it’s because I finally stopped being led by every market fluctuation.

Back to your question—how to play with 3000U? My answer is: don’t rush. This is not just a cliché. Less trading, precise operations, and strict discipline are more useful than any so-called "exclusive techniques."

The market itself never lacks opportunities; the next wave will always come. But your capital is only one share—if you lose it, it’s gone. So keep a steady mindset, protect your principal, and opportunities will naturally stay.
