Frequent trading is not a strategy; it is a way to escape the anxiety of a Short Position.


🌒 The Addiction to Contracts: When Fingers Betray Reason
The blue light of the screen at midnight is dazzling, and you feel like you're nailed to the chair, your fingers trembling slightly above the mouse. You just closed a position that made eight hundred, but your stomach feels like it's filled with ice cubes—you know you can't control your hands again. This is already the umpteenth time you've opened a position today, and your account balance is three thousand less than it was three hours ago. The sky outside is getting bright, and you suddenly remember swearing last week to "only make three trades a day." With a wry smile, you type in line 41 of your trading record: "Market Buy BTC impulsively, -1200U."

🕳️ In the quagmire of frequent positions, there are no winners.
"The market is a bloodthirsty beast, most fond of gnawing on restless hearts."
At first, you just took it as chicken soup. Until you saw yourself:
- When making a profit, it's like a drunken man in a casino, eager to push all his chips to the next "sure win" round;
- When in loss, one becomes a desperate outlaw, increasing the position size heavier and heavier, as if the leverage numbers could smooth out the cracks in the K-line;
- The most painful moments are those sideways periods—knowing full well that you should wait, but your finger just clicks on the contract interface, simply to "find something to do."

You gradually see the truth: frequent trading is not a strategy, it is an escape. An escape from the anxiety of holding a Short Position, an escape from the loneliness of waiting, and even more, an escape from admitting that you cannot predict the rise and fall of the next second. The red and green candlesticks on the screen are like a hypnotist's pocket watch, making you forget the tides of the larger trend, only concerned with the present moment.
> "Less movement is a blessing, waiting for the wind is Zen."

For everyone trapped in front of the screen
The market does not punish short position holders, but it will slaughter those who are unwilling to be lonely.
Next time your fingers feel itchy, try turning off the chart and walking to the window:
Watch how the clouds slowly gather, see how the sunset dyes the buildings.
