#数字资产动态追踪 I once heard a senior trader share a case study of a student he mentored, and the most impressive part was that transformation.
This student has been in the market for two years, taking many detours: eager to double their funds, constantly going all-in, never setting stop-losses, and eventually blowing up their account a few times, losing all confidence. It wasn't until they learned the logic of rolling positions that everything turned around—within three weeks, from 3,000 USDT to 9,700 USDT, not only turning losses into profits but more importantly, finding a way to survive and come out ahead.
Honestly, there’s nothing particularly complicated—there’s just one core principle:
**Start with small positions to test the waters. When you make a profit, treat that profit as "ammunition" for the next trade. When you set a stop-loss, you only lose the profits you've made so far; the principal is always safe.**
How to operate? For example, for the first trade, only invest 20% of your total capital. When your profit reaches 2%, take some profits off the table, and the remaining profit becomes the "fuel" for the new position. It sounds conservative, but that’s where the difference lies.
Every time you open a position, you must pass through "three hurdles"—
**First hurdle: Market sentiment.** When everyone is shouting "必涨" (certain to rise), hold back. That’s often the trap of chasing the high.
**Second hurdle: Monitor the main players’ movements.** Don’t guess blindly based on feelings; wait for clear accumulation signals before acting, so you have a basis for your decisions.
**Third hurdle: Check your own state.** If you’re feeling anxious or tempted to gamble everything, that’s a sign—more reliable than any technical indicator—so don’t touch it.
By executing step by step, you naturally abandon the idea of all-in gambling and stop blindly following various "signal groups." Later, this student said that now, even earning 100 USDT, they’re not in a rush to withdraw but continue to roll that profit into new trades—even if one trade loses, their initial principal remains intact, and their mindset becomes more stable.
This is actually the key point.
Many people want to lock in their gains as soon as they make a little profit, feeling more secure. But those who can sustain profits are often those willing to cycle their gains. Rolling positions don’t require winning every time; even if they win 6 out of 10 trades, their account can still steadily double—because the probabilities are in their favor.
In the crypto world, luck is never lacking; discipline is what’s missing. Watching a retail trader who desperately wants to get rich overnight gradually transform into a steady trader who "protects the principal first, then rolls profits"—this transformation itself reveals the core issue: **This is what it takes to survive longer in the market.**
Whether to take that step and break free from the cycle of losses ultimately depends on your own choice.
