When I looked back at my trading records from 10 years ago, I was stunned. The account screenshot showed a balance of only 380 yuan, and at that time, I really was at the point of not being able to afford a meal. Today, when I open the account again? Six-figure funds make my eyes hurt from the glare.

Someone asked me if I am naturally gifted. To be honest, not at all. The only two reasons I am still here today are: first, mastering the correct way to use "rolling positions" as a double-edged sword, treating it as a refined tool rather than gambling chips; second, I am grateful that this "timid" trait has never changed in my bones, and it is this caution that has saved me many times.

Don’t be fooled by those "overnight doubling"

From 380 to six digits, how much resilience does that require? If it were me, I would have already lost my mind. Everyone has their own opinion, but this kind of "cowardice" is indeed valuable. Too many people lose because of greed. Rolling positions, to put it simply, is about survival. The longer you live, the longer you can earn.

380 bucks to six figures? Whether it's reliable or not, let's not talk about that. The mindset shift is really intense. Really "chicken" to the rescue, I've seen too many negative examples. Using rolling positions as a tool rather than gambling—it's easy to say, but actually doing it is really difficult.

Bro, this story kind of skeeves me out. 380 bucks to six figures? Feels just like my friends who died in 2017—survivor bias is way off.

Bro, 380 to six digits, this range is really incredible... But I still trust the word "timid" more, it works better than any talent.

ngl the "position sizing discipline" angle hits different than the typical moon-boy narrative... most don't survive the first liquidation cascade though
