After so many years in the crypto world, I've seen countless stories: accounts growing from a few thousand to a million, only to be wiped out in the last trade, going to zero instantly. The most heartbreaking part isn't losing money itself, but the gap from hope to despair.



The truly exciting strategy is called rolling positions. It's a completely different world from just holding coins—fast-paced, highly stimulating, with extreme results. When successful, it feels like turning a peasant into a lord singing a song; when it fails, there's not even a sound.

When the market is favorable, money flows in like a stream; when the trend reverses, the account disappears. That's the real picture of rolling positions.

You've probably heard these stories: only a few hundred or a couple of thousand US dollars left in the pocket, catching a wave of market movement, and in a few months, growing to six figures. It sounds unbelievable, but the logic behind it is quite simple—small capital means light positions for trial and error, sticking firmly to the right direction, reinvesting the profits to keep amplifying, and rolling like this.

The problem is never the methodology but people's desires and fears.

Most people's pitfalls are similar: after making money, they lose their bearings, feeling invincible, throwing risk considerations out the window; once they start losing, they can't accept it, stubbornly refusing to close positions, hoping the market will turn around; slight market fluctuations cause panic, wavering without direction, forgetting their original plan entirely. In the end, it's not the market that collapses, but their out-of-control selves.

My bottom line in doing this has never changed: if you judge incorrectly, get out immediately—no emotional attachment to candlestick charts; once you hit your psychological target price, take profits right away, never let emotions dominate your account operations; when the market is unclear, even if it hurts, stay in cash and wait—better to sleep for months than to make reckless moves.

Rolling positions doesn't mean charging every day; it's about holding back until the trend fully turns positive, then going all out in one burst.

Whether you can play or not doesn't depend on whether the market is good or bad, but on whether you have the ability to do these two things: only bite into the most profitable middle part of the trend, never craving the small bits at the end; take profits decisively to ensure you survive and leave the table.

In this market, the fastest runner doesn't necessarily laugh last; those who can stay at the table are the real winners. Some always say there's no opportunity now because the market isn't good, but actually, they just can't wait for that wind to come.

I used to drift around in the waves of the crypto world, but now my boat has finally stabilized its course. The boat has always been here—do you want to come aboard and give it a try?

That hits too close to home. I've seen too many dreams of millions shatter into nothing in real life.

The moment of wiping out millions was truly incredible, I've heard it too many times... The problem is that greed is just unstoppable.

That's right, mindset is the biggest enemy, not the market itself.

That was too harsh; this is exactly gambler's psychology. Truly, I've seen too many people lose because of "one more time."

Listen to this "the direction is steady," what about that previous ship... probably sank to the bottom of the sea.

There's nothing wrong with that, but among ten people who can actually do it, only one can succeed.
