In the crypto world, many people often see trading as a gamble, but in fact, 'rolling positions' is not betting with one's life, but a way to extend the lifespan of an account.

A young investor, who has proven this with an account curve that steadily increases at 45° for more than a year, with a drawdown never exceeding 8%.

His secret is summed up in one method: preserve the principal, use profits as further ammunition.

1. Survive First, Make Money Later

Immutable principle: never increase a position with unrealized profits.

  • When capital of 5,000 USDT increases to 7,500 USDT, immediately withdraw 5,000 USDT to a safe wallet, leaving only 2,500 USDT – which is the total profit.

  • The principal has 'reached the shore', feeling relaxed, even if losing is just 'playing with profits'.

"Capital is on the shore, heart is underwater – no storm can wash you away."

2. Profit Division – Double Like Cells

Position rolling principle: hold half, withdraw half.

  • 2,500 USDT → 5,000 USDT → withdraw 2,500.

  • 5,000 USDT → 10,000 USDT → withdraw 5,000.

  • And so the cycle repeats, profits grow exponentially.

This is how to 'work with the market', allowing profits to replicate themselves, instead of letting greed bury the account.

3. The Market is the Weather – Strategy is Clothing

Depending on the stage of the market, choose the strategy:

  • Market up (bull run):

    • Leverage ≤ 5x

    • Reinvest when reaching 50% profit

    • Cut losses at the nearest bottom

  • Market sideways:

    • Leverage 1–2x

    • Trade according to the upper/lower bands of Bollinger Bands

  • Market crash day:

    • Buy more whenever the price drops by 5%, total position ≤ 30%

    • When it rebounds by 10%, reduce half of the position to take profit

4. Four 'Vulnerable Points' – Violating Must Be Zero

  1. Do not protect the principal

  2. Ignore the 'profit division' principle

  3. Leverage is controlled by greed

  4. Stop-loss and take-profit based on dreaming

5. Daily Discipline – Checklist for Traders

To avoid 'dying from complacency', K sets up a self-check checklist:

  • Always write down the stop-loss price before opening a position

  • When profit ≥ 50%, it is mandatory to withdraw the principal, anyone who violates must self-punish 100 USDT

  • If leverage exceeds the limit → turn off the machine, run 5 km to clear your mind

Conclusion

K's method of rolling positions seems 'counterintuitive', but it is this inhumanity – not trusting emotions, only trusting discipline – that helps him survive and thrive in the harsh market. In crypto, survival is already a victory, while profit is just a reward for persistence and discipline.
