People often ask: I only have 10,000 yuan, how can I turn it into a million in the crypto world?



Honestly, this is not a pipe dream. The premise is—this 10,000 must be the profit you've already made, not the principal. If you're still in a loss, don't even think about this.

Let me share a very practical method: **Rolling Positions**. It sounds fierce, but it's basically an advanced version of floating profits adding to your position.

# First, how to control risk

Suppose you open a Bitcoin futures contract with 10,000 yuan, using 10x leverage, but only open a **10% position**—that’s 5,000 yuan margin. At this point, the actual leverage is just 1x, with a stop-loss set at 2 points.

What if you hit the stop-loss? You only lose 200 yuan, which is a 2% loss of your principal.

Those who often get liquidated are not because of leverage but because of all-in bets. Even if it really gets liquidated, you only lose that 5,000, how could it be completely gone?

On the other hand, if Bitcoin rises to 11,000, you continue to add to your position with 10% of your total funds, still with a 2% stop-loss. If you're swept out this time, you've already made an 8% profit. Where’s the risk?

# The truth about rolling positions

To put it simply: **This is floating profit adding**, a routine operation in futures trading.

You don’t need to always hold 5-10x leverage; 2-3x is enough. The key is to add with floating profits each time, keeping your total position at 2-3 times, which is relatively safe when trading mainstream coins like Bitcoin.

But there’s a deadly point: **You need patience**.

The power of rolling positions lies in compound interest. Successfully rolling a few times can reach millions. So don’t act rashly; focus only on **highly certain opportunities**—for example, after a sharp decline, sideways trading for a long time, multiple bottom tests without breaking, then a volume breakout. The probability of such trend-following moves is high.

# A practical approach

To grow from 50,000 to 1 million, you can design it like this:

First, wait for a big market drop with 100,000 yuan. Bottom-fishing in spot trading to earn 100,000 profit, then **use 50,000 from that profit to roll**. Even if this 50,000 is lost, it won’t hurt your principal.

When a “everyone is scared” good opportunity appears, use 2-3x leverage to roll once or twice. There’s a high chance you’ll come out ahead.

$WET If such assets follow a trend, combining with partial position mode is a typical case.

If you want to make big money, you must dare to gamble when the probability is high. But the premise is: you really understand what “certainty” means.

In the end, it's still about unrealized gains; losses are the real sleepwalking.

Basically, it's greediness—so many people have fallen for the word "certainty."

The key is still capital efficiency. I need to build a model and run historical data with the 10% position size coefficient before I can believe it.
