Don't remind me again today

People often say that having a small amount of capital makes it impossible to turn things around in the futures market? Don't be ridiculous, this statement is fundamentally unfounded. If only Large Investors could make money, retail investors would have been completely eliminated from the market long ago.



If you have 200U and want to turn it into 2000U, how do you plan to do it? Are you going to go all in and gamble for 10 times? Or will you use the rolling method to gradually increase your money?

The former is basically gambling with one's life. If the market fluctuates slightly, the account can be wiped out completely, leaving no opportunity to turn the situation around. Rolling positions, on the other hand, is different—it does not seek to become rich overnight, but rather aims to stabilize and amplify profits through reasonable positioning while controlling and minimizing risks.

I previously brought a few friends along, and when they first entered the market, their initial capital was only around two or three hundred U. The amount they placed for each order was pitifully small, and they were even reluctant to set stop-losses. Later, I taught them a strategy: first, set a small target, such as growing 100 U to 300 U, and then break it down into three rounds of operations. The target for each round is to earn 30 to 50 U. Once they make a profit, they should lock in part of the profits and let the rest continue to roll.

This process is like stacking bricks—one by one, although slow, it is solid. The biggest benefit is a stable mindset, making it less likely to get liquidated, and the compound interest effect will gradually become apparent.

I follow this approach when I trade myself as well. The large position is responsible for stable output, the small position is flexible in rolling over, and the secondary position is specifically for locking in profits to prevent drawdowns. The core of rolling over is actually training your ability to compete with the market repeatedly. It’s not required to hit big profits on every trade, but you must ensure that the overall direction does not deviate, small mistakes can be corrected in time, and profits can truly be retained.

Stop using "the capital is too small to play" as an excuse. Smaller funds are actually more suitable for rolling operations. First, build up your trading system, and stop dreaming of getting rich every day. When your capital grows, you will thank the current you who is focused on accumulation.

Remember: the results of rolling over positions rely not on bursts of luck, but on the gradual outcomes of a rolling strategy.
