The cryptocurrency world is never short of legends; some go all in and lose everything, while others steadily turn the tide.
Today, I will break down a "slow in, fast out" rolling strategy, which can be summarized in six words: survive first, then scale up.
1. Choosing Coins: Only capture the "understandable main upward trends"
Not all rises are opportunities; you need to learn to pick:
True breakthroughs + increased volume: For example, ARB stabilizing at $1.2 with trading volume increasing by 60% compared to the previous day is considered a valid signal;
Focus on leaders: When Layer2 is hot, look at ARB and OP; during MEME season, focus on DOGE and PEPE, without wasting time on minor tokens;
Moderate market cap: A range of $300 million to $800 million is ideal; too small is easily manipulated, too large is hard to move.
I currently hold no more than two coins, concentrating my efforts for precise actions.
2. Rolling Positions: Cut losses when losing, increase stakes when making profits
Taking $200,000 as an example:
Initial $60,000 trial position: Only enter when breaking through key levels with volume, such as last year when PYTH stabilized at $0.8, setting a stop-loss at 8%, without being too attached;
Add $80,000 after a 40% profit: After confirming the trend, add to the position and let profits run;
Invest the remaining $60,000 after doubling: Remember, never increase your position when losing, only charge aggressively when making profits.
3. Risk Management: Staying alive is the hard truth
Single coin position ≤30%, withdraw part of the principal as USDC after doubling;
Each stop-loss should not exceed 6% of the total position, refusing the illusion of "waiting a bit longer";
For instance, when my holdings doubled last year, I immediately withdrew $100,000 to secure profits, and let the remaining profits continue to roll.
4. Case Study: How to roll $8,000 into $150,000
A reader strictly followed the strategy of "stop-loss at 5% decline, withdraw half profits at 20% rise," rolling out $150,000 in six months.
The core is not technique; it is discipline—remain calm when the market is crazy, and stay composed when the market is panicking.
The hardest part of the cryptocurrency world is not seizing opportunities but resisting temptation.
Look less at the charts, plan more; slow is fast.
A scientific strategy will always triumph over blind charges.
