In the treacherous world of cryptocurrency, Liang Xi's name is a household name. A post-2000s trader, he emerged like a dark horse. Using only 10,000 yuan in capital, he shorted the market and, amidst the turbulent market crash, amassed a 10 million yuan fortune, instantly becoming a legend and creating a wealth story almost beyond belief. Everyone wondered: how could Liang Xi, a short seller, achieve such a bonanza? The secret lay in his masterful "rolling" strategy.
Looking back at the cryptocurrency world, there's a legendary figure named Tony. With just 50,000 yuan in capital, he leveraged his unique "rolling strategy" to grow his funds to 20 million yuan in just one year. His method is considered a classic within the cryptocurrency world. So, what exactly is this magical "weapon"? Simply put, rolling involves using small amounts of money, like $10, to continuously test market trends, betting on only one direction, either a firm long position or a decisive short position. The key is to use high leverage, such as 100x, to boldly bet on a unilateral surge or plunge. After generating profits, the investor avoids blindly aggressive moves, instead adding only a portion of the profits and using appropriate leverage to allow the profits to snowball. However, it's important to understand that rolling is not simply gambling; it requires a combination of strict discipline, precise market analysis, and exceptional risk management.
For a tangible example, consider how $300 can magically grow into tens of thousands of dollars. Starting with $300 in principal, each trade uses just $10, with 100x leverage. A golden rule: stick to one direction, regardless of price fluctuations. If you make 20 consecutive mistakes, stop immediately and never get carried away. Imagine a lucky 1% profit on the 20th trade—that $10 instantly becomes $20. Secure the $10 profit and continue trading with the remaining $20. Another 1% profit would turn the $20 into $40. With just a 2% cumulative market fluctuation, the principal has miraculously quadrupled. If you're incredibly lucky and Bitcoin experiences a 10% surge or plunge in a single month, that $300 profit could literally multiply into thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. Of course, that assumes you don't get easily thrown off the train during these complex and volatile market conditions. Tony also has an exclusive secret when using the rolling position strategy. He only uses 70% of the profit each time to increase the position. The leverage gradually increases with the profit, up to 30 times. He never blindly takes all-in risks.
When rolling in the cryptocurrency market, certain crucial principles are more crucial than trading technique. First, set a target profit target. Once you reach a set profit target, such as $5,000 or $10,000, you must withdraw your funds decisively. Remember, in the cryptocurrency world, greed often leads to a margin call. Liang Xi set strict rules for herself to combat human weakness: a single loss must never exceed 2% of your principal; after a 30% profit, withdraw half immediately; and if you suffer three consecutive losses, shut down your account and never trade again. Once your principal has accumulated to a certain level through rolling, perhaps tens of thousands of dollars, you must wait patiently. What are you waiting for? Waiting for a major trend, such as Bitcoin breaking through a key level. These opportunities only come once or twice a year. Once you do, take out another $500 and start the "10-dollar trial and error" cycle again. If you can't survive a false breakout, you risk being ruthlessly eliminated by the market.
So why do so many people who trade futures in the cryptocurrency market constantly face the fate of being liquidated? Three key issues are to blame. First, they're obsessed with placing orders without regard for market trends, repeatedly being exploited in volatile markets and losing everything in commissions alone. Second, they're obsessed with fantasies of overnight gains, unwilling to wait for guaranteed opportunities and ultimately wasting their capital in worthless, volatile markets. Third, they're obsessed with losing control. They initially planned a 5% stop-loss, but when the price drops to 10%, they cling to the illusion that they can still recover their investment, ultimately being completely crushed by the market.
Liang Xi and Tony, on the other hand, were able to survive the brutal cryptocurrency world and achieve astonishing results because they wrote their trading plans into strict, "machine-like" rules. For example, "If the previous high is broken + trading volume increases 1.5 times → open a 3% position." If the conditions weren't met, they would simply shut down their computers and go to sleep, without hesitation.
Honestly, rolling in the cryptocurrency market is like walking on a knife's edge, carrying an extremely high risk. It's only suitable for "sniper" investors with ironclad discipline, a willingness to thoroughly research the market, and the ability to endure months or even longer without trading. If you're impulsive and hope to get rich overnight through rolling, you'll likely be wiped out. The core formula for rolling can be summarized as: cautious trial and error with small amounts of money + reasonable reinvestment of profits + strict adherence to target profit-taking targets + staying put if no suitable opportunity presents itself. Finally, remember that behind all seemingly rosy stories of "10,000 turning 10 million" in the cryptocurrency market lie the tragic experiences of countless others who lost everything. If you truly want to try rolling, be sure to practice at least 100 times in a demo trading system to familiarize yourself with the trading process and risks. And always keep 50% of your principal in the OTC market; this is your ultimate trump card for a future comeback. After all, in the cryptocurrency world, no one is forever invincible; only those who survive have the right to tell their own stories. Behind Liang Xi's ability to earn 30 million, there is the bitter lesson of his 5 million liquidation.#加密市场回调 #凉兮
