Dare not to touch contracts, then roll the spot into a snowball. Written for ordinary people who are still stuck in place.
A friend asked me, "With contracts being like a heaven and earth needle in a second, my heart can’t take it, is there still a way out for spot trading?" I replied, "Spot trading is not a way out; it's the expressway for ordinary people. It's just that most people have handed the steering wheel over to their emotions."
Three years ago, I was left with 3000U. After my contract blew up, I vowed never to touch leverage again. I only did one thing: roll the position. Twelve months later, my account net increased six times. Someone asked me for the secret. I shrugged, "Profits nurture profits."
Don't feed emotions. In one sentence, it reveals the essence of rolling positions: continually turning earned money into new principal, letting compound interest work for you instead of letting adrenaline lead you into pitfalls.
How to roll? I break it down into three steps that even elementary school students can copy.
Step 1: Wait for the wind to come. Spot trading earns direction tax, not volatility tax. Open the daily, weekly, and moving averages of BTC and ETH. Once in a bullish arrangement, take action. The winning rate immediately rises from 30% to 70%. If the trend hasn't emerged, do not hold positions; being itchy to short is equivalent to working for the exchange.
Step 2: Cut the position into three parts. Start by throwing in 30% of the position, confirm the trend, then add another 30%. For the final touch, 40%. Also break down the profit-taking: once it rises enough, 25%, sell half first, pocket the principal, and let the profit continue to fly. This way, even if there’s a waterfall the next day, you only have profit drawdown left, and you won’t wake up at midnight to hit your thigh.
Step 3: At the end of each round, cut yourself loose. Once the market finishes moving, immediately transfer 30% to 40% of the profits to cold wallets or fiat accounts. Use part of the remaining funds to reinvest the principal and regroup. Remember, compound interest is not a number game; it’s a discipline game. The profits taken out are the money earned; what stays in the market is just chips.
After rolling the position for a year, the account won’t explode or crash. After rolling for three years, you have a printing machine that only produces coins without overtime. Don’t underestimate a single 20%; five consecutive times is 2.5 times, ten consecutive times is six times. Drawdowns are controllable, sleep soundly. The market rewards those who live long. Replace contract leverage with time leverage.
Exchange the passion for all-in with the discipline of rolling. Ordinary people can also grow an orchard in a bear market.
The path has already been drawn; whether to walk it is up to you. If you want to make quick money, turn left to contracts; one second to heaven. If you want to slowly become rich, turn right to spot trading; roll out a snowball. On the road of compound interest, I walk fast alone, a group walks far together. You are welcome to join me @阿二说币
