Adding positions is an eternal topic of trend trading, and it is also the key to whether the trading profit can be enlarged. That's a good question

In futures trading, it is best to keep positions after following the trend, or add positions halfway. My personal understanding and opinion, I hope to help you. Of course, welcome to verify.

(1) The price movement in the futures market cannot always run in a straight line in one direction, and there will be a correction or consolidation in the middle. One of the prerequisites for adding positions is that you have made a profit on the basis of holding positions. This is the iron law, and the thunder cannot move. Never add a position without profit.

2 The position should be 10% of the loss you can bear, and the position is like a spy in the war. First, arrange a small team to investigate the enemy's situation and see if their judgment is recognized by the market. Know yourself and know yourself, and you can make a big profit. Even if it fails, the ship will turn around, at least it won't get stuck.

(3) If there is already a profit in the middle, the price keeps hitting new highs and the low point keeps rising. In the previous low-point band range or the previous pressure level range (when the pressure level is broken, it will become an effective support level), wait for the price to adjust back and increase the position to maximize profits, and at the same time, don't miss the market.
