If you're still chasing 'explosive profits' and 'doubling overnight', this article might not be for you. But if you've experienced liquidation, consecutive losses, and emotional breakdown, then we might be on the same path.
I was once a typical case of 'heavy position loss'.
I went all in with 8000 U into altcoins, ended up losing three rounds; not only did I lose my principal, but I also owed a friend 30,000 U. During that time, I was anxious before the market opened, chasing prices during trading, and regretting afterward, losing all nine trades, with no wins.
Until one day, a senior threw me a line:
'Technique isn't important, position control is the core of trading.'
It sounds cliché, but I really started to change my strategy from that day on, shifting from aggressive to the most basic, unremarkable—rolling positions.
What is a rolling position strategy?
In simple terms, it means using small positions to seize certain opportunities within trends, relying on accumulated profits to grow the principal.
No mysticism, no faith-based trades, no 'this time for sure'.
The core rules are simple, but I still adhere to them:
Single position not exceeding 15% of total capital.
Even with 90% confidence, don't go heavy; even if you're wrong, you can still survive.
Only trade in the middle of trends, don't bet on tops or bottoms.
If you can capture the profits in the middle segment, that's already enough.
Only add to profitable positions, never average down on losing ones.
Add after a rise, cut immediately after a drop, never engage in 'praying trades'.
Misaligned layout, a wave of trends with double positions.
One set for short-term waves, another for long-term holding; maximizing returns when the direction is right.
Always execute stop-losses without hesitation.
There's no 'let's wait a bit longer'; if you're wrong, you're wrong—trading isn't like dating.
How slow is the return?
Started with 2300 U, and rolled it to 23,000 in nearly a month.
In the second phase, I continued to roll with profits, reaching 74,000 in less than two months.
After stabilizing the pace in the third phase, I reached over 200,000.
In six months, total earnings exceeded 60 times, without once fully investing or holding onto losing positions.
Now many people ask me: 'Do you have any special trading methods?'
I said, no.
I just took the 'position control' to the extreme, treating 'certainty in the market' as the only goal.
Those who earn money through passion often end up giving it back.
The seemingly conservative strategy of 'rolling positions' is actually the most stable accumulation method.
Truly skilled players all start from 'survival first'.
Survive first, then talk about doubling.
