"One day in the crypto world is like ten years in the human world." I've heard this saying too many times. But honestly, how many people have truly survived three days?

People in the circle often say, "If you don't have tens of thousands of U, don't touch contracts." Every time I hear that, I can't help but laugh. Such opinions show they completely don't understand what true risk control is. Big money emphasizes stability; small money emphasizes agility. These are two different things.

I've seen too many people put their entire monthly salary into a position, open a trade in the morning, get liquidated in the afternoon, and then complain that the market is a casino. The real problem isn't the market—it's that they are playing a "poor mindset" in a "rich person's game."

Having less capital isn't a sin; lacking discipline and a system is the real dead end.

**1. What exactly is "rolling positions"?**

Honestly, it's not that complicated—using the profits earned to expand the gains, while keeping the original capital safely in your pocket.

How does it work? Here's an example: You have 100U. You only use 20U for the first trade. When that 20U earns 10U profit, you withdraw the original 20U capital, leaving the 10U profit to continue trading. If this trade loses, you only lose that 10U profit; your principal remains intact.

This is completely opposite to traditional averaging down. Most people panic when they see red, desperately adding to their positions to cover losses, but end up with bigger holes. The core idea of rolling positions is the opposite: only add when you're making money, and cut losses without hesitation when you're losing.

**2. The real-world story from 300U to 2600U**

I have a disciple who did exactly that last year. Starting with 300U, he strictly followed this logic. In the first two months, his account fluctuated between small gains and small losses, with no obvious progress. But in the third month, he caught a clear trend, and his account skyrocketed to 2600U.

The key isn't how accurate his predictions were—honestly, no one can predict perfectly—but his discipline in trading. He always lost very little when he was wrong, and when he was right, he let his profits run freely. Over time, the power of compound growth gradually became evident.

**3. How can small funds last longer?**

Ultimately, the advantage of small funds is that the boat is easier to turn. A 100U trade is much more flexible than a 10,000U trade. The problem is many beginners insist on going all-in, desperately trying to turn things around in one shot, but end up killing themselves.

The correct approach is: treat every profit as a seed for the next round of expansion, not as gambling capital. When your account is small, growth may be slower, but you can survive longer and wait for the power of compounding to show. Conversely, those who go all-in right away—no matter how smart they are—will be wiped out after one or two black swan events.

This isn't about luck; it's a systemic issue. Whoever has a more robust system will be the last one standing.
