Journey of Turning a Few Thousand U into 1 Million — The Story I Have Experienced Myself

Abstract generation in progress

Many people ask me: “If I have a few thousand U, how can I reach 1 million?” Actually, it’s not just empty theory — it’s the path I have taken step by step, from a modest 1000U to my current capital. Starting from Small Numbers but with Determination Back then, I only had 22 million VND, which I exchanged for 1000U. That was all my assets, but I didn’t jump into the market like a gambler risking everything. I set aside 200U to test my strategy: Choose coins with high volatility and liquidity, such as SOL which was constantly fluctuating at that time. Take profits when winning, cut losses immediately if losing 50U. After three consecutive wins, my account grew to over 1500U, and for the first time, I saw the light at the end of the tunnel. Psychology: The Most Difficult Puzzle but the Key to Success or Failure Once, I earned over 1200U from ADA, so excited I wanted to place more orders that night. But I forced myself to rest for 24 hours. The next morning, I looked at the market — a sharp correction caused those with FOMO to burn their accounts. Just one “stop at the right moment,” I avoided a crash that could have brought me back to 0. When Capital Grows: Applying the “Three-Part Strategy” When the account reached several thousand, I started using a clear strategy instead of trading emotionally: • 30% of capital: Quick trades, quick wins Aim for 3–5%, withdraw when profitable. Don’t expect too much, just find clear entry points. • 40% of capital: DCA into BTC and top coins Follow the trend, avoid buying at the peak, accumulate during market corrections. • 30% of remaining capital: For major events ETFs, FOMC rate meetings, CPI data — times of extreme market volatility. This is when opportunities and risks both double or triple. Before Each Trade: Clearly Note Take Profit and Stop Loss It sounds simple but 90% of folks don’t do it. I always note in my records: Entry Price Take Profit Price Stop Loss Price To prevent having profits turn into losses due to blind faith. Most losers are not because they don’t know how to trade — but because they have no plan. 4 Iron Rules That Saved Me from Account Burning Over the years, I’ve never broken these 4 principles:

  1. Never go all-in Even if you’re confident, never put all your capital.
  2. Always set a stop loss for every order No SL is suicide.
  3. Max 3 trades per day Exceeding this number, emotions will control you.
  4. Profit must be withdrawn regularly Last week, I withdrew 50,000U to a savings account — much safer than leaving everything on the exchange. From 1000U to Today: The Secret Lies in Two Words Discipline & Decisiveness. Discipline to avoid repeating old mistakes Decisiveness to not miss clear opportunities The market does not reward greed or hesitation. But it pays very generously to those who follow the right method. If you start with a few hundred or a few thousand U — remember: the important thing is not how much money you have, but how much discipline you have.
