I have seen too many cases where accounts rolled from k yuan to millions, only to be wiped out completely in the end.



The path of compound interest and increasing positions has always been the most extreme play in the crypto market—exciting, highly profitable, and also the easiest way for one to lose everything overnight. It’s either financial freedom or an account balance of zero, there has never been a lukewarm middle state.

When I was at my poorest, I only had 1000U in my pocket. It was through this strategy that I rolled it from one thousand to one hundred thousand in three months. Stories like this are not uncommon in the circle; to put it simply, the core consists of three elements: high leverage + reinvesting profits + relentless focus on one direction.

At first, I only dared to invest 300 USD to test the waters, opening positions of 10 USD on a hundredfold contract each time. Earning 1% is a doubling, and after making a profit, I withdraw half and continue to roll the rest. According to mathematical calculations, as long as I get it right continuously for 11 times, theoretically, 10 USD can turn into 10,000 USD—this is the cruel charm of compound interest.

But why can't 90% of people get up? The reasons for death are basically three types:

• Earning is not satisfying, greed continues to increase the bet.
• Unwilling to accept losses, doubling down on buying against the trend
• The direction is swinging unpredictably, being hit back and forth by both bulls and bears.

My own iron rule is very clear: cut losses immediately if I'm wrong, even if I make mistakes twenty times; when the account reaches 5000U, I must withdraw half, not giving emotions a chance to rebound.

Last year there was a one-sided market, I used 500U as capital and rolled it to 500,000 in three days. But what you don't see is that I watched for a full 4 months without opening a single trade.

Compound interest and increasing positions is not about acting every day, but rather waiting for the right opportunity to strike decisively.

Many people are asking now: "Can we still roll over positions in the market?"

First, ask yourself three questions:
• Is the volatility high enough?
Is the trend clearly one-sided?
• Can you only eat the middle part and not be greedy for the ends?

All three answers are affirmative - then take action. If there is hesitation - then wait.

This trading strategy profits from market trends but suffers from human nature.

In simple terms, it's about the gambling nature; how many can hold out for 4 months without making a move... I've seen too many people who made money and then squandered it all, going all in and losing everything.

To put it bluntly, it's all about luck; win 11 times in a row and you become a millionaire, lose 2 times in a row and you're back to having dinner at home.

I just want to ask, who can really stop loss? It's easy to talk, but when the market arrives... it's all human nature.

After this wave of non-farm payrolls, I've seen a lot of Get Liquidated cases; those who were previously quite eloquent still ended up falling.

The key is that 4-month observation period; ordinary people can't stand it, and they get itchy hands every day.

Sounds great, but less than one-tenth of people can actually live to see the moment of withdrawal.

To be honest, this kind of story reminds me of those guys who were zeroed out... really, human nature can't get past this barrier, no matter how good the method is, it's all in vain.

Sounds nice, but it all comes down to human nature. I've seen too many people make a little money and then start fantasizing about getting rich overnight, only to end up losing it all.

It's again the same old story... I've seen too many people use this narrative to recoup investment, only to end up with a total loss. The non-farm payrolls this time indeed had a big market move, but without that level of composure, increasing the position is no different from giving away money.

It's the same old rhetoric again, sounds like you can make money but actually you can lose money, a 90% failure rate is quite normal.
