#Strategy加仓BTC I have seen many accounts in the crypto world, some grow insanely fast—thousands of dollars turning into six figures in just half a year. But these accounts often also suffer the harshest crashes. Do you think it's market volatility? Actually, the core issue has long been exposed: most people simply don't know when to stop.



Anyone who has traded derivatives knows that going from small profits to zero can happen in an instant. A paper profit of hundreds of thousands, followed by a major drawdown—profits are wiped out, and the principal is lost as well. The problem isn't that they didn't make money; it's that they can't hold onto it after earning it.

I've observed those who can profit continuously through position rolling—they share a common trait: extreme restraint. They don't trade every day; instead, they wait most of the time. The actual trading logic is like this:

First, as soon as the first trade is profitable, they immediately withdraw the principal. This instantly relieves psychological pressure. They only use pure profits for subsequent trades, so they naturally stay calmer and less impulsive.

Second, the more they earn, the more they reduce risk. Once the floating profit reaches the target, they immediately raise the stop-loss line, lock in some profits first, and never be greedy for the last bit. Many people's common mistake is wanting to capture the entire market move, but when the trend reverses, they lose everything.

Finally, they only trade in clearly trending markets. They avoid following high-frequency traders and instead focus on certainty. When there's no clear trend, they go completely flat—better to miss opportunities than to lose money.

Ultimately, what creates the gap isn't how many opportunities someone seizes, but who can truly lock in profits in their account. Patience, knowing when to stop, and restraint are the prerequisites for doubling your gains. Otherwise, everything is just a game of luck.

It's a very sharp point, but greed is the most deadly. Those who reset are usually unwilling to withdraw their principal. Waiting is indeed tough, but it's much better than liquidation. The rolling position strategy is indeed used by some, but most still want to get rich quickly. Raising the stop-loss line—this detail is overlooked by too many people. Better to miss a wave than get trapped. When the market has no clear direction, it's indeed time to rest. In this industry, you must keep your mindset under control. Many people just get carried away after making a profit.

That's so true. I've seen too many people become so greedy that they end up losing everything overnight and going back to square one.

That's so true. I've seen too many accounts get rich quickly only to explode, and the key is greed. Really, withdrawing principal is a brilliant move; it instantly calms the mind. I truly understand the patience of holding cash and waiting. It's better to miss a wave than to get trapped inside, it's so tormenting.

That really hits home. I'm the kind of fool who makes hundreds of thousands and still wants to hold on to that last line... Now my account is filled with tears.
