Many people think they lose because of the market, but that's not true at all.
In trading, a liquidation 99% of the time is not because of the wrong direction, but rather not understanding what rolling positions really means.
I've seen too many such operations:
As soon as the market rises, they are eager to close positions, pocketing a small profit and feeling pleased;
When the market falls, they not only don’t stop loss but also double down, ultimately leading to a complete loss.
Even more ridiculous is that the directional judgment wasn’t wrong, but just because of a 5% fluctuation, they get washed out.
This is not bad luck, but a wrong method.
True rolling positions is not about forcefully increasing the position but relying on profits to roll profits. The difference between experts and ordinary people lies here.
Let me share a thought process I often use:
Assuming the account has $20,000, and I anticipate ETH will strengthen.
Step one, only use 5% of the position to test the waters. If the direction is wrong, immediately stop loss and exit without hurting the principal.
Step two, once the test trade is profitable, use the earned money to continue increasing, rather than touching the original capital. The benefit of doing this is that the principal remains safe while profits can accumulate.
Step three, when the market enters an acceleration phase, I will use part of the floating profit to hedge and lock positions, protecting the paper profit. When the market completely erupts, I will open a tail position to capture the final amplitude.
This rolling position thought process has the core principle that the principal remains unchanged, only allowing profits to roll in the market. Once the market moves in the right direction, account growth is exponential; once the market reverses, only the profits are lost, and the foundation remains intact.
A while ago, I made three rounds of rolling positions in BTC, increasing from $20,000 to nearly $90,000, and my principal was never hurt during the process.
So, it can be said that experts may seem to operate very aggressively, but the logic is extremely simple: protect the principal and use profits to seek returns.
Most people are eliminated by the market for a straightforward reason - they have not mastered the rhythm and have not adhered to discipline.
To make big money, it's not about frequent operations, but rather a set of rolling position methods that can survive long-term.
If you don't want to keep spinning in place, then join me in laying out a strategy to help you emerge from the low point as soon as possible. The current market is a great opportunity for recovery and doubling positions.
