In the crypto world, using small capital to achieve big returns, the most taboo thing is to seek quick profits. Stable, replicable, high-probability trading logic is the core secret to position rolling.

Ultimately, there are three indispensable elements: enough patience, extreme certainty, and strict position management. Missing any one of these can easily lead to pitfalls.

I have seen many cases of failed position rolling, and the problem is often not about not understanding candlestick charts or not grasping the trend of the coin, but falling into two deadly traps. One type of person gets restless with slight price fluctuations, chasing trades randomly and opening positions blindly, completely deviating from the trading plan. The other, more dangerous type—when their mind is hot, they go all-in on a coin, and as a result, a black swan event or a stop-loss mistake can wipe out their account directly.

I personally only operate on high-certainty opportunities: the first large bullish candle after a mainstream coin trend reversal, a coin breaking through a key resistance level with continuous volume expansion, or a start signal after a long-term sideways accumulation. For other market conditions, I prefer to observe patiently.

Regarding position size and stop-loss, this is an absolute bottom line. Suppose you have a capital of 50,000, and you only use 10% for a single position, which is 5,000 yuan. The stop-loss for each trade should be strictly controlled within about 2% of the account net value—that is, around 100 yuan. This approach has a very high fault tolerance; even five mistakes won't damage your core capital.

But once you catch a trend, doubling a 5,000 yuan position to 10,000 is very normal, and leveraging the trend to roll over to 20,000 or 30,000 is also common. As long as you successfully roll over for three or four cycles, breaking through 1 million in capital is not a pipe dream.

A trader I know used this methodology and grew from 8,000 yuan to 630,000 yuan in 7 months. This is definitely not about talent; it’s purely the result of strictly following trading rules.

For friends who want to master contract trading logic and break free from continuous losses, it’s worth re-examining your risk control system. Perhaps the problem lies in whether you are strictly adhering to these three bottom lines.

Alright, it sounds quite reasonable, but the example from 8,000 to 630,000 still feels a bit too simple. The idea that missing 5 times in a row won't hurt your core energy is a bit idealistic. If it were really that easy to operate, who would still be losing? Haha. The key is still mindset; most people simply can't stick to that 2% stop-loss. Honestly, words sound nice, but execution is the hardest part.

That's right, you just need to stick to the stop-loss line, otherwise a single all-in really means game over. --- I just want to ask, how is that guy who made 630,000 in 7 months doing now? Is he still around? --- Patience is easy to talk about, but as soon as the price drops, it’s broken. I understand that too well. --- Position management is indeed the key to survival, but executing it is really torturous. --- Instead of chasing that虚无的100倍, it's more practical to steadily roll a 5x. --- High-probability opportunities are inherently scarce; most of the time, it’s just gambling. --- A 2% stop-loss sounds disciplined, but in practice, you always want to give it more time to show results. --- I've heard this set of arguments too many times; the key is whether you can stay calm during a dip. --- Even after 5 wrong guesses, you can turn around, provided you can strictly follow the rules. Most people can't do that.

No matter how nicely you put it, it's probably survivor bias. Why didn't that guy who made 630,000 in 7 months mention his losses?

This theory sounds good, but how many people can really stick to it? After seeing the case from 8,000 to 630,000, I was reminded of a few buddies around me who thought they found the secret, only to get wiped out by a black swan event. Honestly, 80% of people fail because of their mindset, not logical issues. I do agree with the 2% stop-loss; however, executing it is too difficult. Compound interest sounds appealing—catch one trend and you can double your money? I'm more curious about how to determine which bullish candle is the "signal to start." Position management makes sense, but starting with at least 5,000 bucks still requires some capital.

That's quite right, but I realize that those who truly make money around me never bother to explain this set of principles in the group. Stop-loss isn't the problem; the problem is that most people simply can't execute it. It looks very simple, but the hardest part is actually that phrase "honestly observe and wait."

You're right, I've seen too many people go all-in and lose everything in one shot, they really deserve it. --- Patience is indeed the hardest thing. I often get bored watching K-line charts and open positions randomly, only to suffer heavy losses before realizing. --- That brother's increase from 8,000 to 630,000 is a bit exaggerated, is that real data? --- I think the most honest point about risk control is that setting stop-losses tightly is the only way to sleep well. --- The problem is most people understand it but can't execute it; they panic at the first sign of a drop. --- I've heard of the rolling position theory, but actually implementing it is extremely difficult. I always feel like I can't miss this opportunity. --- Going all-in with heavy positions is really a trap. Several people around me have been liquidated this way. --- Finding high-probability opportunities isn't easy; it all feels like armchair quarterbacking afterward. --- Strict execution is key, but how many people can really do it? I certainly can't. --- Only risking 5,000 on a 50,000 principal per trade is indeed safer, but the returns are too slow. --- This logic sounds flawless, so why am I still losing money when I follow it?
