Predicting the market to sweep the end of the trading session is actually about eating time value. Near-expiry prediction projects may seem to have very small margins, but this is where the strong profitability certainty lies.

Many traders look down on profits of two or three points, thinking it's not worth the effort. But my approach is different—it's precisely through these small but steady profits, rolling over positions time and again, that accumulation happens gradually. What are the benefits of doing this? Low risk, high win rate, and the ability to execute continuously.

The key is mindset. Don't be greedy for big gains, just focus on certain profits. The shorter the time frame and the smaller the price fluctuations, the higher your chances of making money. That's why I prefer to take action during the near-expiry stage—by then, the market has already priced in everything very thoroughly.

That's right, the strategy of small profits and rolling positions is indeed comfortable, but it really tests your mindset.

The strategy of sweeping near-expiry positions is something I’ve been pondering as well. To put it simply, it’s all about probability theory. People who look down on two or three points will never make money. The idea of rolling over positions and accumulating is solid, but the key is whether you can truly stick to it. Most people still want to get rich quickly; no one wants to grind slowly. This thing’s value lies in stability. It’s not about being afraid of earning little, but about avoiding losses. How long can you really stick with it?

That's right, being small and steady is really much more satisfying than taking a gamble... But bro, you have to hold on. I've seen too many people chase excitement after rolling their positions repeatedly. Two or three points aren't enough? That's because you haven't considered compound interest... Continuing like this definitely helps me live longer than those friends of mine who always go all-in. I appreciate the logic of thorough expiration pricing, but how do you consider risk hedging? What if liquidity suddenly collapses?

Closing the market this way is indeed stable, but you just have to endure... Small profits accumulated over time can also roll into a snowball.

Well said, I really like this slow and steady approach; after all, it's all about compound interest in the end. --- Two or three points are too few? That's because you haven't calculated the account growth over a year, it's terrifying. --- Taking action close to expiration is indeed comfortable, with small fluctuations and less fatigue, and a high win rate with good execution. --- Many people fail because of greed, I used to be the same, but now I've changed. --- I get this idea; it's actually about giving up the dream of overnight riches to adopt a longer-lasting rhythm. --- Rolling positions, sounds simple but tests human nature when doing it; you need a very strong mindset.
