In the crypto world, after mixing around for a long time, you'll notice a magical phenomenon: account surges and account zeroing out often only differ by one operation.

The most heartbreaking stories are not those of slow erosion of funds, but accounts that take off instantly and crash immediately after turning around. A few thousand yuan of principal turning into seven figures within half a year is not even considered a miracle in the crypto circle. In the行情 of妖股 like $JTO, doubling overnight is a daily occurrence.

What is truly scarce is the ability to walk away with this money intact.

Most people's ending follows a template: showing tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of floating gains on paper, but when a wave of correction comes, not only do profits get wiped out, but the principal also evaporates to zero.

This is not a technical problem, nor is it market uncooperativeness. Basically, it’s because they step into the same trap—unable to stop.

Some people turn rolling positions into "placing orders daily and repeatedly adding positions," but the logic of truly steady account growth is completely opposite. It requires you to only open fire in the most certain market conditions, and the rest of the time, just hold your empty positions and wait.

Those who lose huge sums in contracts are almost all stuck in these three traps: making impulsive trades in unclear trends, wildly increasing leverage after small gains, and stubbornly holding through setbacks to stop-loss. Many holders of $LDO have learned their blood and tears lessons from failing at these three tricks.

Conversely, those who can grow their accounts larger and larger are all extremely disciplined. The three iron rules of rolling positions I summarized are crude but effective:

First, take out the principal as soon as the first trade is profitable. After the first profit, immediately withdraw the original funds, and only use the profits for subsequent operations. This instantly stabilizes your mindset because you’ve already protected your capital.

Second, the more you earn, the more you must guard. When floating gains approach your target, decisively raise your stop-loss line, at least lock half of the profits in your pocket. Don’t try to eat the last centimeter of the market; the key is to prevent the money already in hand from flying back.

Third, only trade during trend explosions. Don’t compare trading frequency with others; focus solely on the certainty of the market. Before the trend truly starts, better to stay bored outside the market until you go crazy, than to blindly enter based on feelings.

The deeper truth is, many people don’t lack the ability to make money, but they can’t hold onto the money they earn. In the crypto circle, the real gap between rich and poor is never who catches more opportunities, but who can steadily put their gains into their pockets.

Waiting, taking profits, and stopping are the fundamentals of long-term doubling; this is the secret to surviving in this brutal market.
