#美SEC促进加密资产创新监管框架 Only after saving up your first million can you say you've truly started in the digital asset space.

Many beginners come in thinking about millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, but often end up with nothing. Actually, it should be the other way around—first focus on getting that first 1 million, then just earning a 20% annual return from spot trading will easily surpass the salary of most office workers.

I've been in this market for years and found that the logic of making money is actually very simple: it's not about scraping tiny profits every day, but about breaking the entire compounding process down into several key explosive moves, each time using rolling positions to amplify returns. Normally, use small amounts to test and get a feel for the market, but once a confirmed signal appears, go all in with heavy artillery—here's one principle: only roll long positions, never roll short positions.

So when is it really a signal?

**First Type:** After a big drop and a long period of consolidation, suddenly a huge amount of volume comes in and there’s an upward breakout—only then is the trend truly reversed.

**Second Type:** On the daily chart, when the price reaches a key moving average and both volume and price surge together, indicating obvious renewed market enthusiasm.

**Third Type:** When social media is quiet and retail traders are still complaining, the big players have likely already finished building their positions in the dark.

How exactly do you do this? Let's use $50,000 as an example:

This $50,000 must come from previous profits, not your principal—hold off and wait for your losses to recover before even thinking about rolling positions. Use isolated margin mode, and each position should take up at most 10% of your total funds, with leverage not exceeding 10x. Calculated risk is basically equivalent to 1x leverage, and stop-loss is always set at 2%.

For the first round of adding to your position after a breakout, wait for another 10% rise, then use 10% of the new profits to open a new position, with the stop-loss always firmly set at 2%. Never go all-in, never average down, never stubbornly hold onto a losing trade. Once you hit the stop-loss line, close your trading software and save your bullets for the next opportunity.

If you catch a main upward trend of 50%, compounding can turn $50,000 into $200,000. Two more cycles like that and you’ll reach $1 million. In reality, you only need to compound successfully three or four times in your life—from $50,000 to $1 million to $10 million—and then you can think about calling it quits.

A few strict rules for risk management:

✓ **Don’t roll in choppy markets, don’t roll in slow downtrends, don’t roll coins driven purely by news.**

✓ **After setting isolated margin, even if your margin gets liquidated, only that portion is affected. The rest of your account funds are automatically locked and protected; your total assets won’t be wiped out.**

✓ **Every time you make money from rolling positions, withdraw 30% right away—buy a house, buy a car, lock in your gains. Don’t let human greed swallow your profits.**

To put it bluntly, rolling positions isn’t about gambling your life—it’s about waiting for a good enough opportunity. When the opportunity comes, roll; when it doesn’t, just sit back and wait. Sometimes it’s better to wait than to operate blindly.

If you really make your first $1 million, you’ll naturally understand what position management means, what emotional control means, and what market cycles are. From there, just keep copying and pasting this logic.

In this market, opportunities will always only appear to those who are fully prepared.
