Position management has a skill called "rolling positions," which sounds like a steady money-making machine, but in reality, it is a double-edged sword.



Everyone has heard the legendary stories in the crypto world—turning 50,000 into 20 million, a 1 million account rolling into 200 million. These cases are everywhere, but almost all point to the same strategy: rolling positions. I have seen someone turn $500 into $50,000 in three days through crazy operations, and I have seen many more lose everything overnight due to rolling positions. The difference is just that fine line.

Rolling positions sounds simple—using the floating profit to add new capital and continue trading, making gains grow like a snowball. But behind this is not blind guessing; there is a complete logical framework supporting it.

**Experienced traders who know how to roll positions understand one iron rule: frequent rolling is suicidal.** The market is roughly 90% in consolidation, with only 10% in a true trending move. If you keep rolling positions during consolidation, you are repeatedly eroding your capital, and the final outcome is account zeroing.

What is rolling positions? Simply put, it’s "floating profit adding to the position"—using the profits on hand as new bullets to continue investing. This is completely different from ordinary position adding. True rolling requires building on the money already earned, dynamically adjusting the position to balance risk and reward.

The secret to rolling positions is just four words: **Follow the trend**. It requires a very picky environment—most suitable in a strong trending market, whether it’s a continuous rise or fall. But trying to roll positions in a choppy market is like shooting yourself in the head.

The reason this strategy can generate huge profits is because it leverages the power of leverage and compound interest. When the trend is clear, each successful roll can multiply your position, and profits grow exponentially. But conversely, if you make a wrong judgment or the market reverses, losses will also swallow you at the same speed.

So, rolling positions is never a safe way to get rich; it’s a high-risk, high-reward extreme game. Successful cases exist, but failures are more numerous—only their stories are rarely told.

In simple terms, it's a gambler's mentality disguised as trading skills; 90% of people can't handle it.
