Light positions last longer, heavy positions perform better

1. Heavy positions are not a 'gamble', but a 'calculation'​

Beginners should not view heavy positions as a shortcut; their essence is strategic behavior when probabilities favor you. Without a mature system and directional judgment, heavy positions can easily lead to liquidation. The correct logic: first establish a high win-rate strategy, confirm long-term positive expectations through backtesting, and only increase positions when 'system signals are extremely strong'; certainty and statistical advantage are prerequisites.​

2. When is it worth taking a heavy position?​

1. When the trading system shows a 'golden signal'​

When a certain pattern of the system has a win rate of 70%+, a profit-loss ratio of 1:3+, and has historical validation, high certainty, and controllable losses, positions can be increased.​

2. Confirmation points at the end of a trend​

Key market turning points validated by trading volume and price patterns (such as weekly/daily line break retests, repeated confirmation of support/resistance, and overlapping strong signals at major cycle turning points) allow for position increases.​

3. At the beginning of a large market movement, when volatility is expanding​

When a trend starts and volatility transitions from low to high, it is easy to capture significant wave profits; positions can be increased after confirming trend formation to maximize profits.​

3. How to take heavy positions without being 'severely injured'?​

1. Gradually increase positions instead of going all in​

With a capital of 10,000 U, a golden signal can be gradually increased to 15%-20% in three steps; the logic is to test the signal with a small position, add to the position after the trend meets expectations, and have a fixed stop loss.​

2. Always set a stop loss for heavy positions​

Stop losses should be controlled within a 2%-3% risk of the account; control risk through position calculation to avoid a single loss of 10%-20%.​

3. Profit protection is a priority​

After making a profit, use trailing stops and staggered take profits to lock in profits (for example, close half of the position when profits reach 50%, and set a breakeven stop for the remainder).​

4. The psychological traps of heavy positions​

Emotional heavy positioning (such as going all in to recover after a loss) is the most dangerous. Heavy positions are occasional opportunities; frequent heavy positioning is essentially gambling, and experts need to patiently wait for the best timing.​

5. Heavy positions are a double-edged sword, but require a sheath​

Heavy positions are a bonus for mature traders, not a tool for beginners to turn around their fortunes. Without verified data and stable profit backing, one should first learn to survive with light positions, and then talk about winning with heavy positions.​

The core of trading is 'understanding' rather than 'gambling'. Focus on understanding the market and avoiding traps to ensure consistent profits; the long-term path lies in rational decision-making based on understanding and discipline.
