In the crypto world, there are many people who correctly identify the direction but still face liquidation.
The problem often lies not in judgment, but in method.
A long-time friend once asked me in confusion: if the direction is correct, why do I still lose everything?
My answer is: because you are using your principal to average down, rather than letting profits run. $BTC
True rolling positions have only one core principle: use profits to take risks, not the principal.
I once practiced this logic with 10,000 U:
Initially, only a very small position (like 5%) is used, with clear stop-loss, just to verify the direction.
When the position's profit reaches 50%, take some profits off the table and use the remaining unrealized gains to add to the position.
As the trend continues, use profits to expand the position again, keeping the principal unchanged. $ZEC
When unrealized gains completely cover the principal, hedge or withdraw the principal, using only profits to chase subsequent market movements.
This process seems simple, but 90% of people fail at the second step.
After making a profit, they rush to increase their principal, and when there's a pullback, losses are magnified, leading to a collapse in mentality.
The essence of rolling positions lies in the fact that even if the trend reverses, what you lose is only the prior profits, and you always have capital to fight again.
The essence of trading is not prediction, but management. $PIPPIN
Use rules to control your hands, use profits to manage risk, and use trends to gain space.
If you are also tired of the cycle of 'correct view but wrong action', perhaps it’s time to pause and rethink your position logic. Survive, and profits will naturally come to you. @luck萧
