There are always people in the crypto circle asking: Why am I always losing money, while some people can earn several times a year?

Honestly, the difference lies here — most people fight against the trend, while true winners go with the flow.

Stop complaining that there are no opportunities in the crypto world. The real way to make big money has never been about how often you trade; the key is to grasp three points: correct direction, accurate timing, and proper position sizing. If you can get the rhythm right during a major market cycle, years of losses can be turned around in minutes.

The core logic is actually simple: the purpose of adding positions is to amplify the profits already in hand, not to gamble everything on a single bet. The problem is that most people get this wrong — either going all-in at the first sign of a trade or blindly bottom-fishing during a decline. The result? Not only losing funds but also completely messing up their mindset and timing.

There is only one bottom line for a reliable compound interest strategy: use the profits earned to add positions, never touch the principal.

For example, if you have 20,000 USDT, you can do this: start with a small position of 20%, which is 4,000 USDT, to test the waters. When the market rises by 20%, you make a profit of 800 USDT, then use that 800 USDT to add to your position. If the market continues to strengthen, keep rolling with the trend. When the trend is right, you take full profits; if the trend reverses, at most you lose the unrealized gains, while the principal remains safe.

But not all market conditions are suitable for rolling positions. Three strict conditions must be met: first, the trend must be clearly upward; avoid trading in choppy markets. Second, there must be a strong FOMO sentiment in the market. Third, the coin you favor must have enough market control to rise smoothly without crashing. Missing any one of these conditions means you should stay on the sidelines and wait — no need to force a trade.

How to operate in practice? Three steps:

Step 1: When breaking above previous highs, try a small position, controlling it at 20%.
Step 2: When the gain reaches 20%, add 10% of the profit to your position.
Step 3: If it rises another 30%, continue rolling. Once you see signs of volume stagnation or a break below the 5-day moving average, immediately take profits and withdraw.

Profit-taking also requires some techniques — use a trailing stop-loss method: every 10% increase in the market, raise your stop-loss by 5%. Combine this with phased profit-taking to truly lock in gains and avoid greed driven by rebounds.

As long as you strictly follow the rules, a wave of compound interest can be generated when the market arrives. When the rhythm is right, profits will naturally explode. The key is to avoid illusions; use proven logic tested through real trading, and proceed steadily step by step.
