#隐私币板块全线上扬 Traders often ask me the same question: "The market direction was clearly correct, so why did I still get liquidated in the end?" My answer is very straightforward: you haven't mastered the logic of rolling positions.



What is the truth about liquidation in the crypto world? Most of the time, it's not about luck. Small upward movements lead to panic selling, small downward movements cause blind adding of positions, slight volatility gets you shaken out—frequent operations mean paying more transaction fees, and the result is naturally increasing losses over time.

Profitable traders never rely on "divine predictions"; they depend on systematic methods and calm execution. Rolling positions may seem complicated, but the logic is pure: first, protect the principal as the bottom line, then use the profits earned to incrementally add positions, stay patient at critical points, and wait for the best opportunities.

Let me give you a very practical example. Suppose you have 10,000 USDT and are bearish on a certain coin. How should you operate? First, allocate 500 USDT for a small position to test the waters, moderately increase leverage but set clear stop-loss levels. If there are no new signals, stay put—small losses are still gains. If this test trade earns 50%, then use half of the profit to add a second position; if the price breaks support, use the remaining floating profit to add more. The entire process only moves the profits, never touching the principal.

As the market progresses smoothly, when the floating profit exceeds the principal, hedge to lock in a safety cushion, and finally, place a 'ghost order' to capture the bonus from the accelerated market move.

The most scarce resource in the crypto world isn't technical indicators, but rationality free from emotional bias. Methods are always more valuable than courage. Those who truly understand the rules won't be harmed by the market. If you're still randomly adding, running around, or over-leveraging, what you're missing isn't market charts, but a usable rolling position system.

That's right, but execution is really difficult.

Are you trying to persuade me to cut my losses again? I already know this trick, the key is that I don't have any positions in hand.

That's correct, but most people simply can't do it. I feel the problem isn't with the liquidation logic, but with human greed. After reading for a while, I still don't understand what a "ghost order" is. This theory sounds perfect, but in actual operation, one plunge can throw everything into chaos. The most heartbreaking thing is the phrase "small loss is a win"; how many people can't accept it.

That's right, the key is that I just can't stop myself.

Basically, it's about being unable to stop oneself; frequent trading is truly a suicidal move.

Really speaking, without a clear liquidation logic in hand, you're just paying transaction fees.

That's right, but the hardest part is execution. Most people fail at frequent operations.

That's right, it's a mindset issue. Frequent trading is really a self-destructive trade.

Sounds good, but isn't it just about cutting losses? The key is the mindset; it's too difficult.
