$ETH Many small investors have their funds doused with cold water as soon as they enter the market—mistaking high-frequency short-term trading as a "quick success secret," they end up making dozens of trades in a day, only to find that their earnings don't even cover the transaction fees.
In the end, both their capital and confidence are exhausted.
However, truly smart small investors understand that the key to breaking through is not in speed, but in capturing those 2 to 3 critical market movements, using "rolling positions" to achieve geometric growth of their capital.
You might think this sounds exaggerated, but the actual logic is very clear:
Assuming you have 30,000 in capital, there's no need for frequent short-term trading; focusing on two waves of trends can yield:
First wave triples → Capital becomes 90,000;
Second wave triples again → Capital reaches 270,000.
You transition from a "retail investor" to a player of scale.
This process seems simple, but it is not based on "luck"; rather, it is a "stepwise growth" validated through numerous trials.
The key lies in "rolling positions"—this is not gambling, but patiently waiting for opportunities like a sniper.
The appropriate timing is: sharp decline → sideways consolidation → just before trend reversal.
At this point, you should adopt a phased approach to positions, initially investing only 10% of your capital, and strictly setting a 2% stop loss.
Even if you miss the direction, the loss will not be too significant;
Once you capture the correct trend, gradually increase your positions and let profits run.
Remember, the core of rolling positions is: disciplined offense, not blind charges.
By managing risk well, you can protect your capital;
Contract funds should not exceed 10% of spot positions;
Total leverage should be controlled within 3 times;
Only trade mainstream coins like $BTC .
As long as you adhere to these three rules, extreme market conditions cannot easily topple you; instead, they will provide opportunities for a comeback.
Those who can truly make big money have never relied on constant trading and exhausting hustle, but on patiently waiting, strictly following discipline, and striking hard when major opportunities arise.
Small investors particularly need to deeply understand this point.
When you push your capital to a whole new height through 2 to 3 trend rolling positions, you will find: earning small money relies on diligence, while earning big money relies on trends.
Short-term trading gives you some "loose change," while trends provide you with a life-changing wave.
