Why do some people make hundreds of times their money annually by rolling, while you can't even protect your principal?
The answer is actually very simple:
They roll the trend, you roll your emotions.
They rely on profits to increase their positions, while you rely on conviction to hold onto your positions.
It's not that you don't know how to roll, but you've been going in the wrong direction from the start.
What is true rolling?
In a nutshell: your principal is idle, while profits are fought for.
For example, if you have 5,000 U, only trade 1,000 on your first trade. If you make 200, use that 200 to roll over your second trade. If the market continues to move, use the profits to roll over your third trade...
As long as there's no reversal in this cycle, your principal remains risk-free.
If the trend does reverse? The most you'll lose is your profits, and your capital won't be hurt at all.
But what do most people do?
They make up for losses, make up for losses again, and then lose again. By the time they realize it, their principal is gone. How can they really roll their positions?
Rolling isn't something you do every day; you should choose to do it.
A truly suitable market for rolling must meet these three criteria:
The trend is strong enough—the market is clearly one-sided, not a volatile market with a false breakout;
Emotions are high enough—there's FOMO in the market, everyone's afraid of missing out, but you can calmly roll;
The currency is strong enough—there's a major player controlling the market, not a scam that's easily driven up and then crashed.
Only if these three criteria are met is it worth investing. If not? Going short is a hundred times safer than rolling.
How do you do it? Here's a practical guide:
Step 1: When the price breaks through the previous high with large volume, enter with a 20% position;
Step 2: When the price rises by +15%, use the profits to add 10% to your position;
Step 3: When the price rises by +30%, roll again;
If there's stagnation or the market falls below the 5-day moving average, take profits and exit without a loss.
The biggest advantage of this strategy is that the greater the increase, the lower the risk.
This is because you always protect your principal and rely solely on profits.
How to take profits? Don't rely solely on luck:
Trailing stop-loss: For every 10% increase, raise your stop-loss by 5% to lock in profits.
Exit in batches: Sell one-third at key levels first, and let the rest take flight. Maintain a steady mindset.
Rolling isn't about betting on the future, but about following the present.
Stop dreaming of getting rich quick with a single trade, and avoid emotional trading.
The ones who truly double their money are those who can maintain a consistent pace and know when to stop.
A sound approach + consistent execution + a good team to lead the way.
This is far superior to working alone!
Those who want to turn things around, and who understand, will naturally find me.
